Freedom Caucus has done what? What purpose does it serve? Why does it exist?

Why should we return any GOP incumbent to his or her job?

GOP currently holds the majority in the House and Senate. Do the arithmetic.

“Why should we return any GOP incumbent to his or her job?”

If you return conservatives, when Trump wants to build a wall, they will vote “Yes.” When Congress votes on TPP, they will vote “No.”

If you throw conservatives out for RINO’s like Rogers, they will vote “No.” When Congress votes on TPP, they will vote “Yes.”

Similarly, if Trump holds to his promise to appoint good supreme court justices, folks like Rogers will probably not vote to invoke cloture. Conservatives will.

There’s good reason to be concerned about the composition of Congress other than “was this member loyal to Trump?” That’s banana republic stuff.

Now, now, it’s not as if they’ve done nothing. They voted by a super majority to make Ryan Speaker. I’m sure they consider that big accomplishment quite a feather in their caps.
