This guy is actually pretty mild mannered and reasonable. Not a republican but if I was and lived in Colorado , he would probably get my vote.

[@MrMortis65]

While I disagree with him on policy, he does not seem like an insane, burn the country, nutjob. He won't win the GOP primary by being reasonable.

[@edmondhuot4626]

no, just self-serving and spineless...like not coming clean as a govt leader about his DUI. Google it

[@MerelvandenHurk]

@@edmondhuot4626 That was addressed in this interview though. And let's be honest, a DUI is hardly a massive issue with regards to someone's ability to work in politics. This sounds way more like an honest mistake that he seems to have genuinely learned from than being "self-serving and spineless". He volunteered to step down as he said, is that self-serving and spineless? Is owning up to it and taking responsibility self-serving and spineless? Especially compared to the majority of other GOP candidates? Or even the former Republican president? And a _DUI_ is what you're falling over?

@@MerelvandenHurk Just face it: with the GOP..the bar is low.

@@edmondhuot4626 I don't get your comment. What I'm trying to say is that, while at face value yeah it's not a good look to have a DUI and then not disclose it, but even with that, compared to the rest of the GOP it makes him almost look like a saint. There's far, far bigger fish to fry and I feel like we shouldn't be discouraging imperfect but generally decent Republicans from staying in the party, to prevent Trumpism from _completely_ taking over the GOP with nothing remaining of actual decent Republicans.

[@edmondhuot4626]

Nice enough guy but his speaking abilities are a bit underwhelming. Lynch definitely comes across as more relatable and 'less crazy' and extreme as most (if not all) of the other GOP candidates. We need to get back to sensible governing instead of obstructionist and MAGA obsessed.

[@edmondhuot4626]

Keep in mind, he also didn't come clean w fact that he was arrested for a DUI...ugh, the GOP is crawling w spinless, lying, self-serving scum.
