Progressive activism takes its toll on congressional Republicans

Progressive activism takes its toll on congressional Republicans

There's all kinds of compelling evidence that progressive activism, spurred by Donald Trump's election, is stiffening Democratic spines on Capitol Hill. At the same time, it's starting to have the opposite effect on their Republican colleagues.

    Rep. David Brat (R-Va.) is feeling pressure from women in his district over Republican efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

    “Since Obamacare and these issues have come up, the women are in my grill no matter where I go,” Brat said to laughter at a private event on Saturday, according to a video posted to Facebook. “They come up and say, ‘When’s your next town hall?’ And believe me, it’s not to give positive input.”

      Does this mean we will get more Republicans sneaking out the back door and running from their own town halls? Can we get Vegas to start setting odds on these meetings and how fast they will run away? Maybe ESPN can cover it and see who is the fastest and shame the slowest ones? But seriously I am really glad their constitutes are showing up and getting involved to let them know how they feel about the ACA.

        That would be hilarious and I would totally pay for an ESPN subscription.
