Gardner was the last straw for me. I changed my registration to independent back in December 2015, after being a registered republican for almost 40 years. He ran on controlling spending and illegal immigration, then voted for boner and obumbers 2 year spending plan in the house before going to the senate. Trump is the only republican I have supported since.
As someone on FR once corrected me when I said that Gardner was another betraying POS, the real objective was to get rid of Udall.
That was part of it but also to replace him with a conservative. Gardner was another one of these ‘tell them what they want to hear’ politicians. The minute he got in he started to ‘grow’ in office.
We’re on to their crap. I will never vote for anyone ever again just because he’s a Republican and therefore better than a demonrat.
