republicans who either voted to impeach him or were critical of him. so it s very much still donald trump s party. and after kinzinger announced this because one of there are ten republicans that voted to impeach donald trump. congressman gonzalez who was at one point thought to be the shining light and a star in the republican party, maybe some day the first cuban american president, he has announced he s retiring after trump said he was going to challenge him with a congressman would-be congressman max miller. now kinzinger dropping out. that s two of the ten dropping out. and donald trump put out a statement, two down, eight to go. they called them traitors which tells you about the mood of a certain segment of the republican party. donald trump s endorsement. absolutely. but the one of the interesting things about this, i do think there s a certain shortsidedness on the part of the democrats in illinois.
