Maybe in the past Randy was a conservative but by his recent voting, he’s been bought off by the establishment and it shows. King has NEVER been bought off by anybody and that’s what we all love about him Read “Drain the Swamp” by Rep. Ken Buck. King stood up to Boehner when he tried to bully him into voting on a bill he wanted passed and King said “he doesn’t own my vote”. That’s who I want to represent me. Randy has turned into a marshmellow.
Sheryl, specify what bill(s) you are talking about because Feenstra has an incredibly conservative voting record.
