He should have left 20 yrs.ago

We will just elect other Republicans So what's the big deal

he kompromat'd

It’s a GOP thang.

Too many old farts in the republican party stuck in 1950's mentality dreaming about their glory days. They represent a long gone era. Dissolve the Republican Party.

Good riddance to bad garbage.

worth saying again 42% of Republicans have left or are leaving the House of Representatives.

Remarkable given the 'recidivism' associated w/incumbency in the House of Representatives - Since Trump came into office, 42% of GOP have left/are leaving the House of Representatives Rep. Peter King, the 16th member of the House GOP not seeking reelection

Begs the question, do they see the writing on the wall and will vote to impeach and remove or will they stick with party lines knowing that they will all be voted out next election?

They are running away from the criminal that have hijacked their party. It's a shame, these men don't have the guts to stand up agsnist this devil that has taking over their party. THEY KNOW TRUMP IS 'BAD' CASE AND A CRIMINAL.THEY KNOW HIS CHARACTER, BUT STILL LIED FOR HIM!

Putin wins

Seems to me that these lifelong politicians are figuring out that they haven’t accomplished SQUAT during their terms, and now , we the people see them for what they are: a waste of taxpayer dollars.

Cuz he is. Criminal

Have you ever thought that they just want to RETIRE? Several are not seeking because they want to be w/their families and already spent 20+ years in politics in DC not counting 10 at state level?

The gop is sinking...

I like this trend.

Republicans are dropping like flies

This is no coincidence.

Notice none are leaving the Senate. 🤷🏼‍♂️
