Fox17 – Rep. Justin Amash, the only congressional Republican who publicly argues that President Donald Trump has engaged in impeachable conduct, announced Thursday he is quitting the GOP.
“Today, I am declaring my independence and leaving the Republican Party,” Amash wrote in a Washington Post op-ed Thursday morning. “No matter your circumstance, I’m asking you to join me in rejecting the partisan loyalties and rhetoric that divide and dehumanize us. I’m asking you to believe that we can do better than this two-party system — and to work toward it. If we continue to take America for granted, we will lose it.”
Amash didn’t mention the President by name, but his decision to abandon the party comes after months of escalating criticism not just of the President but of his own colleagues for their failure to hold Trump to account, specifically for the actions detailed in special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on the 2016 election and its aftermath.

Good riddance to that stinking traitor, Amash.
I don’t disagree that we should look into a third party. But I’d like it to be the RINO party and kick all the never-Trumpers and Democrat-lite (ie, all the RINOs) out of the Republican party so we can get back to the Constitutional policies that created this great country.
“Well, bye …”
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
izlamo delenda est …
I wish mc cain and flake would have done the same!
The Democrat party is a traitorous cabal of leftist cruds and the Republican party often isn’t much better!
I said on Breitbart
“China’s got His Nuts in a Vise”
Wake me up when someone of import (has some clout) leaves the party – Collins, Murkowski, etc.
In the mean time, enjoying the 4th!!
Party of one! Party of one! You’re table’s ready in the Loser Lounge.
Your server will be right with you….can I get you a drink while you’re waiting?

ReCall Is In Order.
