There ARE Decent Republicans, But …..

Adam Kinzinger is a rare bird.

Yet I would argue that the Republicans, at least since Eisenhower, have had no real interest in “helping the American people,” unless by that you mean “helping well-off white Christian Americans.”

In any case, Kinzinger’s position here is so radically different than the core of his party that calling him a “Republican” is a misnomer.  His group needs a different name, perhaps “Retro-Republican.”
