Meet Kansas GOP Politicos Against MAGA

This missive comes from a collection of academics who distribute their work to smaller publications across the Sunflower State. 

Typically, the screed is anti-Trump . . . However, this note merits a bit more attention as it focuses on REPUBLICAN MAGA OPPOSITION which is often rare in the Midwest outside of traditionally progressive circles.

Here's the basics of the editorial . . .

"Given that Kansas Republicans have historically divided into moderate and conservative factions, perhaps the fact that there remains a small but persistent number of Republicans who still reject Trump’s control over the GOP isn’t surprising. Stephanie Sharp, a Republican who served three terms in the Kansas House, is one of the prime movers behind Women 4 U.S., a national organization of self-identifying conservative women working against Trump’s return to the White House. Steven Howe, current Republican member of the Kansas House, condemned Trump’s “deceit and lies” and plead with his own party to turn away from their support for the former president. And then there is U.S. Senator Jerry Moran, the only one of the Republicans which Kansans have elected to Congress who has declined to endorse Trump for president. While he’s never directly condemned Trump either, this is a man who, if you’ve paid attention to his speeches over the years, clearly has little respect for the leader of his own party."
