HuffPost
Dave Trott revealed how "members I have kept in touch with" are really feeling right now.
Former Rep. Dave Trott (R-Mich.) has lifted the lid on how current House Republicans really feel during President Donald Trump’s second term.
And... it’s not great.
“Members I have kept in touch with are miserable, and the deplorable state of affairs in our Capitol today is certainly a driving factor behind many recent lawmakers’ resignations,” he wrote in an op-ed for The Daily Beast published on Tuesday. Read the full op-ed at The Daily Beast.
Firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) announced she was quitting Congress last week amid a split with Trump over multiple issues, and a senior House Republican this week reportedly predicted that “more explosive early resignations are coming.”
Congress was “completely dysfunctional” when Trott served from 2015 to 2019, the majority of which was Trump’s first term, he wrote.
