Amash had taken issue with Trump long before this. This wasn't the beginning. Amash did not just sit down with his team, analyze the Mueller report, and suddenly come to the conclusion to lambaste Trump on twitter as a result due to principle. He tweeted about a month ago that he was going to do this, yet the issue ultimately goes back much farther than that. You can see on his Twitter feed right before he came out with this new batch of tweets, he was angered over the tariff situation and before that with overreach by the executive branch, which every single president is guilty of going back to Washington. On and on.
Like some have pointed out, he may not be too happy with the tariff situation hurting his business, but I'm sure it's even deeper than that, because he was calling for impeachment at least 2 years ago.
And the MSM has been backing him up calling him the only GOP opposition to Trump for years now, because it is convenient for them to, despite the fact he has been laughed at by the MSM since he often voted alone on bills in the spirit of Ron Paul. The media doesn't care about him, until he becomes useful and this attack is certainly useful to them. If he was going after Trump for all of the illegal wars we are still pumping billions of tax dollars into, then he would have a good point. If he had dedicated the level of passion he put into tweeting yesterday into this effort, then he would have a great point and would be standing on a hell of a lot more firm ground. Instead he is taking the Hillary/MSM created nonsense, because it's the loudest and best way to attack Trump at this moment. This is about attacking Trump and attempting to bring him down in some way, with the aid of the MSM. Complete political maneuvering.
This does not look or feel like an attack consisting of integrity, something Amash has spent nearly a decade building up, something the media and nearly every Dem/Repub has been laughing at him for since he took office, something we deeply appreciated him for. Something stinks to high heaven here, and it is sad that one of the best representatives of liberty over the past decade is playing into a nonsense narrative. When the MSM is agreeing with something that you are doing, that alone, above all other things, should make you worry. The MSM has been against Trump in nearly all cases, except when we started launching missiles in Syria, when we are killing people that furthers America's and Israel's interests.
All red flags and alarm bells should be going off right now, not because Trump is some completely innocent guy that does not warrant legislative oversight and criticism, but because the entity that has supported 100% of our occupational wars for half a century now whose primary focus is empire building and reduction/destruction of all of our civil liberties in order to continue accomplishing these outcomes, is suddenly loving Amash in recent years, because he is supporting their narrative.
