Best person in Washington, after Rand!

great to see Massie on Fox and pushing audit the fed!
Fixed. IMO, Rand and Amash are contesting second place after Massie.Originally Posted by TER
My opinion is based on the fact that Massie has said or done fewer things I disagree with than Rand or Amash has.
There aren't many things Rand or Amash has said or done that I disagree with, but there are a few.
Just off the top of my head, I can't recall any disagreements I've had with Massie.
Massie has had a lot less influence that Rand, I think it's fair to judge partially based on that.

It's definitely a pragmatism vs. purism debate but the "right" answer doesn't really matter.

From a personality perspective Massie is so easy to like and is so down to earth. Rand comes off as he knows more than the next guy.
*shrug* I don't know what "a lot less influence" is supposed to mean in this context - unless you are referring to Rand's supposed "influence" on Trump, which is ephemeral because (1) it only lasts as long as Trump is POTUS, and (2) it seems to be due more to Trump being "influenced" by the last person he talked to than to anything to do with Rand in particular.
Anyway, however you care to define it, Massie has at least as much "influence" in DC as the guy this forum is named after.
All I know is that I don't recall disagreeing with anything Massie has said or done so far. That's almost but not quite the case with Rand and Amash, regardless of who has how much "influence".
And as I said in my previous post, this is all IMO. YMMV. ABCDEFG.
That's because he very probably does.
Ryan should have passed a stand alone bill for the border wall before he lost the majority. And small stand alone bills for everything. No more huge omnibus bills.

I can't help it. This expresses my feelings after ever video containing Massie.
He's a good man.

The best. Honest and intelligent politicians are hard to find in DC.
