Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Texas, announced Saturday that he would not seek re-election next year.
Nehls, a close ally of Donald Trump who co-sponsored legislation that proposed putting the president on the $100 bill and renaming Washington’s Dulles International Airport after Trump, said he came to his decision after consulting his family during the Thanksgiving holiday — and that he intends to “focus on my family and return home after this Congress.”
Nehls’ announcement adds to uncertainty for House Republicans. Their majority — 219 to 213 — will shrink after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., resigns effective early January, and after a number of other Republicans retire or seek other office.
Another rat trying to abandon ship. Don’t let none of these fucks get away. They need to be tainted for life for supporting Trump.
You think they won’t?
Fuck that, let them scurry off into the shadows. That’s one more special election for a progressive to snatch out of nowhere
I hear his twin brother running for the seat so not going go to a progressive.
Lol now that’s a bold move. Even better chance for a progressive to come out of the woodwork and snatch it that way
