“This is, after all, a party that is apparently about to renominate Trump for the presidency. For many in the GOP, the greater crazy trumped the lesser crazy.

“It’s Trump’s party, so why not give him control of the house GOP as well?”
“Why risk a mean tweet? Why make Sean Hannity mad?”
Olivia Beavers: “It is moments like these that you really see a difference in what some House Republicans are want to really do or say privately and what they end up doing for political safety.”
