Rep. Andy Biggs, the Arizona Republican who was elected this month to take the reins of the group of sometimes defiant hard-liners, said its members are not afraid to buck Mr. Trump as they did in opposing his attempt to repeal Obamacare in 2017.

Sounds like the Freedom Caucus has been penetrated by GOPe/Left-leaners like the Tea Party was, so they can destroy it from within.
If the FC does not back Trump, their agenda will be set back permanently, if/when the next Dem becomes president.
See: Kiss my ass I'm not a socialist
Biggs opposed an Article 5 Amendment vote in the AZ house (senate maybe) for years. Fundamentally flawed thinking.
Your attitude spread wide is why the Libs have been clobbering us. You think like the Chinese.
Name issues where they are winning and I'll show you the appeasement that made it possible.
Your remarks apply much more to the “Tuesday group”.
The ACA replacement bill passed the House. The Freedom Caucus grandstanded, as they always do, but couldnt stop it.
It is this simple. If it moves the ball towards our goal do it. If not, don’t. Every play does not have to score.
Your insistence that every play scores is infantile.
The Libs don’t do that. They move the ball on every play towards their goal. Any gutting of Odumbo care was moving the ball towards our goal. Insisting that it be 100% gutted or you are taking your ball and going home is just plain stupid. Fighting for that goal is not stupid, but insisting that every play score is. Move the damn ball. Next play you have less distance to the goal.
Actually they are seditious aholes. The FC is well meaning but strategically dumb.
You’re extreme LOL!
Yeah, the FC is not always strategically correct. But they do mean well.
The ACA replacement bill passed the House. The Freedom Caucus grandstanded, as they always do, but couldnt stop it.
I’m aware of the history of Obamacare.
I’m results oriented. I don’t really care where Obamacare repeal died. The bottom line is the Republican party promised for years they would repeal it. And they did not. The GOP own that. All of them. Period.
The problem with that analogy is that politics isn’t football. In football the goals don’t move. In politics, everybody with an agenda (and that’s everybody) can and will move them.
Back Trump or lose maggots
They are dumb zealots. If you can take an inch, take it. Then take another and another and another. It is why the Libs have been beating us so badly. They take that inch over and over and over again. Then our side goes How did that happen? when the Libs have taken a mile an inch at a time.
The “libs have been beating us badly” because there is no opposition party to the progressive agenda. The immediate past GOP nom for POTUS and now sitting GOP Senator from Utah preferred Hillary Criminal and her Constitutional destroying SCOTUS to the will of the GOP voters. How pathetic is that?
Note time and again progressive pet projects like NPR and Planned Infanticide are fully funded by the GOP while at the same the GOP never can find money to build the wall. This GOP confidence trick has been going on since Reagan. 30 years of lies from the progressive corportists who control the GOP. Buy a clue before it’s too late, FRiend.
Direction. Towards our goal or not. Applies to anything and everything. Business... War... Sports... Banging hot chicks... Anything and everything.
With zealotry you end up throwing one mighty spiral for a touchdown with an ass beating of 108 to 6 because you went for the 2 point conversion and every other try got intercepted.
The point you are missing about Obamacare is that the GOP donor class wants socialized medicine every bit as much as the Democrats do. Socializing the expenses of health care has been a dream of formerly American now multi national corporations for decades.
Like open borders the GOP spends near all its energy trying to dupe GOP voters into thinking that is not the case instead of fighting Democrats on the issues.
Let me guess, Andy Biggs is a Mormon. Just Like Mitt Romney, Jeff Flake, Mia Love etc etc
Criminals but with better impulse control.
Oh I fully understand. Most of the GOP are duplicitous pricks... Democrat in votes and in conservative drag come election time.
