Kansas Rep. Tim Huelskamp Loses Primary To Dr. Roger Marshall - Christine Rousselle

"Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS) has lost his primary against challenger Dr. Roger Marshall, multiple sources are reporting. Huelskamp has represented Kansas' first district since 2011 and is the first GOP incumbent to lose a primary election without being redistricted."

Lets hope Nehlen does the same to Ryan in Wisconsin August 9th, and lets see if Trump can continue cleaning house.

The youtube video shows the NeverTrumper going on a tirade against our next president Trump which makes this moment extra special.

Yes, that is him back in May. He didn't realize (as many probably don't) that it isn't a good idea to be anti-Trump with record numbers showing up to vote for him in the primaries.

Huelskamp was a decent representative, I'm sad to see him go. He doesn't seem to be a good loser though. Kicking out all the media from his watch party. Lol

But that actually makes the Pro Trumpers 1-7 or 1-9( depending on the source). So it actually makes more sense to be #NeverTrump.

Except Trump lost Kansas by a decent amount. I think it's more likely due to anti Brownback sentiment and people in the state wanting to go a new direction.

Default GOP U.S. Rep. Tim Huelskamp booted by voters: Incumbent liability

In Kansas, in what was thought to be a close race, U.S. Rep. Tim Huelskamp found being an incumbent GOP to be a liability.

GOP voters are angry.

Dr. Roger Marshall booted Huelskamp so far he passed Pluto and is still accelerating.

Dr. Marshall won by over 12 points.

GOP voters are not just angry at existing reps, they are livid.

No GOP Reps or Senators are safe. Likely Ryan will get the boot too.

And Toto too.

Actually I need to take that back,

Sen. Lisa Murkowski from Alaska looks safe.

I already reported here how Rob Portman's prospects of returning are way down owing to his Trump endorsement.

Rubio is likely to be booted by Florida voters especially owing to his attendance and talk at an anti-gay rally.

See: Sen. Marco Rubio slated to speak at anti-LGBT conference - NY Daily News

........

Someone not running.. Rep. Richard Hanna (R-NY) has crossed party lines and endorsed Clinton and blasted Trump. Smart move?
