Resign, @AsaHutchinson.
Republican governor of my home state is a quisling RINO. For shame. pic.twitter.com/vfzTyV9dqG— Rita Panahi (@RitaPanahi) April 7, 2021

Oh that feeling when you realize Trump has left and you throw reason to the wind, when you think people want a return to normalcy based on principles you never had-
Jesus wept.
Pretending it’s about government overreach. Sickening.
Un reasonable. Offering children to the Left!
I have a suspicion that what’s up here is that the task of running a statewide campaign tends to give an advantage to aspirants who build relationships with donors. The trouble is the quality of people who make big donations. It’s not inevitable – it’s impossible to imagine Mike Huckabee attempting to veto this bill. We might benefit from a political order where donors matter less – smaller geographic constituencies for legislators, mandatory retirement for elected officials, rotation-in-office rules, and limiting state-wide contests to the governor’s chair. Our most acute problem, however, is that our professional-managerial class is chock-a-block with morally stupid people. In truth, the sex-reassignment quackery should be illegal tout court; making it illegal to do this to juveniles is a minimum.
Under this man’s perverted reasoning child abuse is not to be prohibited by law as long as it is committed by parents and doctors. There is no such thing as a “transgender “ person. There are those males and females who may have a mental issue in this area that needs to be addressed by competent counselors and psychiatrists to accept their sexuality which determined at birth. Glad that Hutchinson outed himself.
This is not surprising given comments I have seen online and things I have heard directly from friends in Arkansas. Hutchinson has been identified as a RINO for years now. He survived a primary challenge in 2018 largely due to those big-money donors Art mentioned, and because his opponent had poor organization. His COVID policies look more like a Pritzker or Whitmer than DeSantis or Abbott.
He’s in the Walton family’s pocket, and this generation of them is a collection of wokesters.
Using chemicals to irreparably harm mentally ill young boys and girls is a matter of “individual opportunity.”

That whirring sound is Sam Walton in his grave.
Those members of the Republican party who think they can amass a winning margin by watering down what got them elected in the first place might well study the fate of the Whig party in 1852. They supported the infamous Compromise of 1850 which half protected the rights of states to regulate slavery and promptly lost the election of 1852 to democrat Franklin Pierce followed by the party’s extinction in the election of 1856 when the new Republican party lead by Fremont, while losing, established itself to win in 1860 with Lincoln. A somewhat similar event took place a little later in Great Britain when the Whigs also managed to drive themselves to irrelevance and succeeded by the Liberals.
