He was angling for the cajun vote (those boots are a common sight in swampy states.)

More team burt than not. The audacity of elected representatives standing up for their constituents' (admittedly batshit) ultra-con beliefs!

That assumes these people give a fuck what their constituents want or need. In my experience, Republicans are generally going to choose power grab over constituent wishes whenever that is a choice.

D: Let's agree that Nancy is in charge and spend our energy negotiating bills and shit.
R: Haha, look at these sheeple.

R: Let's argue over which white guy is in charge and negotiate an easy way to remove him if we don't like what he's doing!
D: Haha, look at these idiots.

John Boehner would have cried so hard if he went 0-6 like this...

That assumes these people give a fuck what their constituents want or need. In my experience, Republicans are generally going to choose power grab over constituent wishes whenever that is a choice.

MT Rep. Matt Rosendale is an ultra-con, and he is one of the guys blocking McCarthy. He's a loon. He's also managed to convince the majority of eastern MT that he has their best interests at heart. IMO, it's not really up to him to pivot and do anything other than the stuff they elected him to do (divert tax dollars to private schools, "protect the border," fight Biden's spending agenda, develop fossil fuels, etc). If they want him to do something different, they'll have to let their voices be heard...

Granted, he's a slippery fuck who's skilled at doublespeak to obscure the details of his policies. But generally speaking, here in MT, there's no real divergence between his grab for power and the wishes of his constituents.

There's a meth epidemic in eastern MT that can be traced to the border.
