If Pete Meijer wants credit for being one of the "Good Republicans", an anti-insurrecrion type who wanted Trump impeached, shouldn't he be running on that?

This is a variation of Tim's pitch. If Pete Meijer is less dangerous than John Gibbs, he should say so, to his voters. But he didn't, and never would, because they don't want the "less dangerous" candidate. They want a Trump loyalist who will eagerly overthrow democracy.

McArdle et al are so pathetically quick to let voters off the hook, because attacking Democrats is like a comfortable old sweater for them. And because Dems and other anti-anti-Trump types are the only ones who read them. You think any John Gibbs voters are reading Megan freaking McArdle?

Cra-cra-cra-crazy Gibbs was gonna win that primary no matter what because the Republicans in that district want cra-cra-cra-crazy and Meijer was unwilling or unable to be cra-cra-cra-crazy enough to sate that cra-cra-cra-crazy Republican electorate.
