Rep. Peter Meijer, a Republican representing Michigan’s 3rd district, is currently locked in a fierce primary battle with former Trump official John Gibbs. What makes the race newsworthy, though, is the fact that Meijer voted to impeach Donald Trump in January of 2021, and that has led to some very interesting dynamics in the race. (snip) “I am the only freshman in history to impeach a president of his own party” he proclaims, making me wonder if he would like a cookie.

A "moderate" learns there is no such thing. You can't play the middle. It just offends everyone else. As Reagan said, you must paint in bold colors, not pastels.

#1, my Dad always said about moderates, "If you walk down the middle of the road, you are going to get hit by cars going both directions."

Mr. Meijer is a back stabber to those who he claims to be politically aligned with. NOBODY likes or ever trusts a traitor, including the other side that the traitor goes over to.
I hope a lot of bad things happen to you, traitor. You have earned them.

Miejer has already won his primary. Huh? Several days ago a local television station posted his margin of victory...votes and pecentages. Strictly amateurs, the national Democrats and media usually wait until after the election to post their cheat-results just like Mexico, Cuba and Venezuela.

Meijer’ s district has been redrawn and added a conservative area. When Meijer impeached Trump based on a bogus claim proves to me Meijer doesn’t know squat! I understand more about what was going on than our Rep? He should have informed himself instead of buying the leftist media crap

And then there is this: according to the two news stories posted last week, he already won. The paper claims it was a test of their election results system. "But the numbers next to each candidate were not real election results, the station said in a statement Monday. They were randomly-generated sample numbers provided to the local news outlet by The Associated Press for use in standard system tests. An error by the station led to the release of those numbers, which are not supposed to be published. At least one other station, the Grand Rapids-based WOOD-TV, also accidentally released the numbers." https://apnews.com/article/Fact-Check-Michigan-Election-Test-Error-182577486419
Plausible. But, given what has happened in past MI elections, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

He brags in his article that Democrats considered him one of the ‘good Republicans’ as if that was a badge of honor. That is reason enough to oust this jackass. He was my representative until we were redistricted. It is a conservative district and he was headed for certain defeat until the RINOS tried to save him.

He votes with Dimmiecrats nearly 40% of the time. If you are in bed with someone that often you should know they do not respect you in the morning.

As the article points out, he impeached Trump with zero evidence. He thinks that makes him principled? He impeached Trump with no investigation. He thinks that makes him just?

Rattlesnakes will strike and bite the hand that feeds them. It's what they do . . . it's hard wired into them. Same with Democrats, they will stab you in the back as soon as it is expedient for them to do so. Go to the bank on it . . . it is what they do.

Adam Kinzinger has campaigned for Peter Meijer and has contributed to his re election via his PAC. Liz Cheney has also given Peter Mijer fnancial support for the election. This tells us all we need to know about him.

This spoiled little boy should have gone to work in his family's stores so they could teach him a few things. I'll bet the rest of the Dutch in western Michigan get rid of him pretty quick.

"Good" Republican?
The Saying: THE ONLY GOOD INDIAN IS A DEAD INDIAN.
Who Said It: Gen. Philip Sheridan
When: 1869
The Story behind It: In January, 1869, General Sheridan held a conference with 50 Indian chiefs at Fort Cobb in the so-called Indian Territory (later part of Oklahoma). At that time, Sheridan, who had gained recognition as a Union officer in the Civil War, was in charge of the Dept. of the Missouri. One of his duties was to oversee the Indian Territory, making sure that the Indians remained on their reservations and did not harass the white settlers. When Comanche chief Toch-a-way was introduced to Sheridan at the conference, the Indian said, "Me Toch-a-way, me good Indian." Sheridan reportedly smirked and replied, "The only good Indians I ever saw were dead." Later on, the remark became "The only good Indian is a dead Indian."
