The Real Reason Thomas Massie Lost: He broke the one rule of the MAGA Republican Party. - That the current Republican Party is defined by allegiance to a person rather than any principle is not a new development. 'America First' has always meant Trump first. 'All this time, I thought they were voting for libertarian Republicans," one astute Republican congressman mused to the Washington Examiner as far back as 2017, 'but after some soul searching I realized when they voted for Rand and Ron [Paul] and me in these primaries, they weren't voting for libertarian ideas-they were voting for the craziest son of a bitch in the race. And Donald Trump won best in class, as we had up until he came along.'
"The politician who said that was Thomas Massie."
