He wants the presidency and he cannot get that being a Republican. There’s way too many Republicans that don’t agree with him and you think that rather than run as a "moderate" republican he will leave the party and end his political career? I think he’s finished as a Republican at this point. He made too many calculated errors.

He and Romney could be brothers. Both with a giant self inflated egos.

He's been saying that for years. It says so in the article.

He's certainly hated by Holiday. I tend to doubt that Holiday speaks for everyone in Nebraska. I mean, he *just* won a statewide election only a few months ago with a margin of 63%-24%. But maybe he's vulnerable to getting primaried? Oh wait, he won the primary by 75%-25%. Huh. So just maybe Holiday's hate for Sasse isn't shared by Nebraska as a whole? . If you put Ben Sasse up against Scott Frost in the next election? Ben would be lucky to get 10%.And most of those votes would be from Omaha. Well, that’s good news, since Scott Frost ls probably going to need a job in the relative near future. A 12-20 record isn’t conducive to remaining the head coach at Nebraska. Come to think about it, it’s probably not conducive to getting elected in Nebraska either.

All I see here is your constant whataboutism. Especially all your comparisons that frankly don't show equivalent situations. As for Facebook/Twitter/Google - Trump has clearly over the years violated any terms of use. I've participated on forums where they would always bring down the hammer on anyone who would do things that Trump would. He never had an absolute right to use their platforms. And another affront was Trump clearly trying to use foreign relations to get dirt manufacturered for Biden. yes you probably do see that constantly from me and do you know why? It was blatantly obvious how you viewed the police in both these situations. The police and the first riots were bad bad people. The police trying to control the crowd at the capital we’re good virtuous people. Embarrassing. And you wonder why people call you hypocrites? That's your interpretation. I never said anything negative about the police with this situation in NYC. The video you showed had them in a tough situation and after viewing that I would say their actions were justified. I didn't see everything that might have happened away from the cameras, but I saw very little force being used by the police. They took down a few people who were resisting arrest. But I didn't see anyone actively attacking the police. They were primarily people looting retail businesses and trying to evade the police. From what I could gather, the situation that night was also that there was a curfew and at the very least they could cite people for being there but generally chose to inform people about it so that they could leave. They did seem to arrest a few, although it seemed like it was for looting. However, I don't automatically take a position that the police are correct. They have a tough job, but I believe there are certain lines that they might cross where they should face consequences. When Trump wanted to go out for a photo op and Bill Barr ordered that Lafayette Park be cleared, I don't believe that was an appropriate use of federal law enforcement to gas and attack what were generally nonviolent protesters. They even attacked a totally nonviolent Australian reporter and her cameraman. I thought it was an inappropriate use of policing resources to rent unmarked vans in Portland where people were randomly scooped off the sidewalk. Quite a few of the people who were grabbed were not actually involved in doing anything illegal. When someone in Portland just stood there without resisting, I thought that it was wrong that federal law enforcement just whacked him with a baton multiple times until he had broken bones. At the Capitol Building I thought it was totally appropriate that they use force to prevent rioters from entering the building. And that was really bad. It wasn't just throwing stuff at police but absolute mayhem. It wasn't a bunch of rioters just throwing stuff at police and running, but actively attacking them with various weapons. There was nothing I remember from any of the protests from the last year that came anywhere close to that. That was brazen, "F the Blue" activity where various Capitol and DC Metro Police were beaten down by a mob that knew they had numbers and not just the hit and run tactics of most riots I remember from the last year. I can look at individual situations and judge whether or not I feel the use of force is excessive or appropriate. At the Capitol Building, I do believe it was appropriate to use batons and tear gas when they were being actively attacked. However, you seem to think I look at the police and think it's only appropriate that they use force against Trump supporters.
