    Young was one of the few Republicans trying to subdue the insurrection on Jan 6, arguing with the traitors outside the Capitol.

      True.

      But he’s still an asshole Republican who I totally expected to fall in line with the rest.

      Of course, we’ve also got Mike Braun here in Indiana to kiss Trump’s ass until he inevitably gets elected governor.

        He has not at this point yet fallen in line, however. I believe in giving credit where it’s due, and however low the bar he has passed, he has in fact passed a bar that most of his colleagues stumble on. I have high hopes for this guy. I’m by no means a republican, but I’d like to have a political opponent who doesn’t outright disgust me with blatant disregard for sanity, law or truth. This man is attempting to move people in the correct direction, currently speaking. We will see what the future holds for him.

        Oh, I want suggesting he was good. Just that he did the bare minimum during a literal insurrection.

    Who would’ve thought, believing in democracy and law to be the bare minimum for being a president.
