#NeverTrump Republican Tim Huelskamp was defeated Tuesday night in the Kansas primary.

Pro-Trump challenger Roger Marshall is up by 14% with 602 of 1338 precincts reporting.

Ooops

Marshall lead now 14% with 906 of 1338 (68%) precincts reporting. It’s over.

I’m in Kansas, and I was not aware that Heulskamp wad a NeverTrump person. I know he is a solid conservative that doesn’t play along with the GOPe. So this is news to me.

Same here, I never knew he was a "never Trump". Just moved back to Missouri but very disappointed to lose Huelskamp. Marshall said Huelskamps problem was he was always causing problems and couldn't get along with the GOP (which I'm sure Marshall will get along just fine - Marshall is an acquaintance). Huelskamp was one of the few who stood his ground to fight Boehner getting speaker.

The rat-fornicating Cruz campaign manager Jeff Roe was working against Huelskamp even while Cruz was supporting him and then lied about it:

EXCELLENT!!!

[Swirl]

So which candidate is better? The one who opposed Trump, but helped rid us of Boner, or the one who loves unchecked immigration and has taken huge bucks from GOPE, Koch Bros, and Chamber of Commerce? Maybe why poor turnout.

Yah, that’s the article. But why? Was Cruz just lying while Roe took him down or did Cruz not know?

Dem moles like the German bassoon congressman in upstate NY who endorsed Hillary

[bugman]

Saw no evidence Marshall is pro Trump but do know he’s pro big government.

If it’s so wonderful why is Boner, whom Huelskamp helped bring down, celebrating?

Outstanding. Now he we can kick Ryan out next week...

[edie1960]

Awesome, too, how Trump is dealing with Paul Ryan today, saying in a Washington Post interview that “I’m just not quite there yet!!!” Using Ryan’s words right back at him!!

This is a huge victory for Trump!! This jack ass was a CRUZER!! and after the nomination— he criticized TRUMP!!. He got slaughtered against a pro life GYN named Marshall who called this jack ass “ESTABLISHMENT”. This is huge for Trump. With the exposure of Obama paying blood money for hostages in Iran and the exposure of Kahn as a damned political actor. this caps the day as a huge day for Trump!!. Query-— Where is hillary? She has disappeared!!
