Former Rep Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill)– a constant Donald Trump doubter after the president-elect’s 2020 political election loss– exposed why it’s “interesting” that movie critics label him with the “RINO” phrase, which represents “Republican In Name Only.”
“The reality is the entire Republican Party today is the RINO. They’re Republicans in name only,” claimed Kinzinger in an interview with Salon shared Saturday.
“They hold the title to the Republican Party, a lot of them still think they’re holding a legacy, but that’s exactly right, it’s gone.”
Kinzinger, the emphasis of a brand-new docudrama “The Last Republican” from “Hot Tub Time Machine” supervisor Steve Pink, claimed “what it means now to be a Republican” is that you’re “driven by anger” and department.
“I think what they stand for is supporting culture war, rage, and one person, one personality, and that’s Donald Trump. Now, they’ll never admit it, but that’s the reality of it,” he claimed.
Kinzinger– among 10 House Republicans that elected to impeach Trump over his duty in the lethalJan 6, 2021 strike on the united state Capitol– offered on the House board that examined the insurrection.
He backed Vice President Kamala Harris in in 2014’s political election and, in a speech at the Democratic National Convention in 2014, proclaimed that he was “putting our country first.”
Kinzinger, in a separate interview with Forbes, claimed he’s developed “new alliances” in recent times and has actually recognized he’s “probably closer to a Democrat now because of how the Republican Party has changed.”
“The Democrats are now the party that’s defending America’s role in the world, defending Ukraine, which I’m really passionate about,” claimed Kinzinger, that forecasted that the GOP is “toast for awhile” as Trumpism will not “survive past these four years.”
The previous congressman, in his meeting with Salon, claimed he believes Trump is “already a lame duck” prior to keeping in mind that his control over his base like nothing else head of state can present a “concern” for Republicans when his 2nd term ends.
“If you think about George W. Bush toward the end of his second term, Republicans were falling away. That won’t happen with Trump,” Kinzinger claimed.
“All those Republicans who should be falling away will still have to face re-election even though Donald Trump doesn’t.”
Kinzinger claimed he does not assume the GOP can be “saved in the near term” yet he wishes individuals do not “give up on it.”
“Because the reality is that there’s probably forever only going to be two major parties in this country, and the Republican Party will be one of them. We can either write it off and lose elections, with such consequences as we’ve just had, or we can continue to fight inside,” he claimed.
