Conservative Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.) announced Friday he will not seek re-election to his House seat, saying that death threats and “false and defamatory rumors against me and my family” led to his decision.3 days ago
This is a story that hasn’t hit TPM or the mainstream media, but Rosendale was a pretty important conservative Republican on several committees. Since he is from Montana it is hard to believe that Democrat extremists threatened him or his family, but I wouldn’t put such threats past some very well known MAGA folks. Maybe there is another story out there but I tend to believe this might be a case of MAGA eating its own. It certainly doesn’t bode well for the future of our democracy.
