Yes, I get that was nearly two years ago, and we've since forgiven some of the other people who voted to certify the election. But this is a special case. He originally was going to vote ''against'' certifying the election, but changed his mind at the eleventh hour in order to virtue signal. If he's willing to do that, then he's an opportunist and anything he says or does going forward should be automatically suspect. I hope I'm not being too harsh here.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 20:22, December 22, 2022 (EST) | | ::In my opinion, his behavior on January 6 disqualifies him for any future consideration for Conservative of the Year.

However, he's recently made comments on the Russian boogeyman [[conspiracy theory]]. I understand why. After leaving all those Hummers in Afghanistan, his home state gets a big contract to build them for Ukraine. It comes down to this: if he votes for $1.7 trillion omnibus bill, he's a sellout to the [[military industrial complex]]; if he votes against it, he's standing on principle.
