Discussion: Another GOP Chairman To Retire: Trey Gowdy Announces He's Out

Ah, well, now it all makes sense. His very recent conversion to integrity and decency - and coincidentally, he will not be serving in the Appeasement Party. Join the living, Trey.

That’s why he has been behaving so frisky recently !

So that’s why he’s been acting like he has a spine; he got his out of the cloakroom coat check before he leaves.

53 year old Committee chairman representing a Trump +25 district is retiring?
Two questions:
What’s the scandal?
If no scandal, how bad is the polling?

Holy crap! Pretty soon Nunes and Ryan will be the last ones left.

Covering up for the Trump mob simply isn’t worth the stress-induced hair loss.

I will be returning to the justice system. Whatever skills I may have are better utilized in a courtroom than in Congress

So he is about to be indicted?

I’ll miss his stupid clown shoe-shaped head.

I would like to join with all Americans in hoping that he does not let the door hit him on his head more than a few times on his way out.

Yeah, bullshit. He’s gotta cash in before his K Street value drops to zero…

And there I was thinking he’d banged his head or something. Turns out he was just feeling safe to speak his real mind on the way out.

It’s funny how Republicans suddenly make sense when they are about to leave office (and not for Fox News).

All in all, it’s a redemption story.

I wonder, what Mueller has found ?

I guess it’s just coincidental that these guys get a burst of balls on way out the door!

It could be both—if the House flips, he could find himself on the receiving end of Benghazi-style inquiries and he’s decided he’d rather be elsewhere.

Hmmm, “whatever skills” he " may have". Is sweating profusely a skill where he’s from?
