      The circumstances were not even close to similar. We all had time in the House to read and analyze the bill.

      To be fair, did the democrats have any say in the crafting of the bill, or have any say on amendments to the bill?

      No, and neither did the vast majority of Republicans.

      Do you think not allowing any input or debates is not equivalent to ramming something through? What about the health care bill? Totally disingenuous for you to criticize a process you embrace when it suits you and your party.

      My criticism of bad process has been consistent. The health care bill and tax bill processes were not nearly as bad but still quite bad (in different ways). Nobody in Congress cares more about process than I do. https://edition.cnn.com/2015/10/04/opinions/amash-house-gop-leadership-is-broken/index.html …

      Can you post any comments you made on the process used by your party for those bills? Speaking on it in 2015 then remaining silent when your party uses bad process is useless to the people. If you don't object, and vote yes on bills put forth by bad process, you are endorsing it.

      If you pull up stories from last year, you’ll see some of my comments. I’ve always called for a better, more nonpartisan process.

      I like that you push for this, but does your voting record reflect this? Or does your voting record reflect that you vote with the party regardless of how the party built legislation. The power to change is not in speeches, but in the votes.

      From what I understand, you are actually a Tea Party Republican, not an Independent. I looked at your voting record, and you do not vote party line. That's good. But, it seems you vote nay on even good ideas like Disaster Relief in Sept, so don't know what to make of you.

      I’m a libertarian Republican, a constitutional conservative, a classical liberal, an independent, and a moderate.

          Not trying to attack you, honestly. Originally from MI, now in FL, so not a constituent. Your answer comes across like you're not for or against anything, and you try to fit all molds. You vote for the tax cut (huge deficit), and against relief. If I were a voter, I'd be hesitant

          My principles and positions do not align neatly with either party, and I’m open about what I stand for. Those are virtues, not vices.

          If your vote aligns with something, it's irrelevant that you disagree with it in theory. A fiscal conservative who votes for a budget-exploding bill helps no one. And If you give your party's president free reign out of party loyalty, your positions and principles mean nothing.
