    As he was leaving the Capitol, I tried to ask Dean Heller - in a difficult reelection race where he needs Trump's support - if he has any concerns about Trump calling on Sessions to end the Mueller probe. He shut his car door on us without acknowledging the question and drove off

        That’s my Senator! Heller’s blind support of Trump and lack of moral courage to speak out against him is proof positive we need new leadership in NV. Now ask @RosenforNevada how she feels about it.

        And here's the funny thing: Heller -- who actually did vote with the Democrats from time to time earlier in his career -- probably would be easily re-elected. But he decided to get in bed with #FailedPresident, whose approval ratings are also underwater in Nevada.

        I don't think his re-election was ever considered to be "easy". He's been on thin ice here for several years

        If Heller were facing a weak Dem candidate, it might be (and Rosen is not that, however). I agree with you that his problems pre-date trump, however.

        Rosen has no chance. Her poll numbers show it. Bit off too big of a race. She'll be a has been in no time.

        We must not be reading the same polls. According to your logic, Heller should be crushing her, but that’s not the case... and we still have a long way to go. If Heller continues to be a feckless coward, her chances will continue to improve 👌🏻

        With all due respect, that's not what I meant at all. Heller's poll numbers are terrible, and there's a very good chance that Rosen wins (but turn out is crucial). My earlier statements referred to Heller's chances two years ago versus today.

        I was responding to our GOP troll, not you. The points you made were valid and insightful. I agree that turnout is going to be the deciding factor.

        GOP is criminally complicit and completely RESPONSIBLE for the imminent collapse of 240 years of the rule of law in America. Every GOP Senator and House member is a traitor, and should suffer the consequences of their reprehensible misconduct.

        Absolutely. A thug like Trump does not just happen in a vacuum. He needs enablers. And that's where the @GOP comes in. Those people evolved from a political party into an authoritarian project. Everything Trump is doing is part of that project.

        SEN. DEAN HELLER (NV) is running again in NOV. REP. JACKY ROSEN (Democrat) is running against him. Heller needs to be deposed from his PHONY THRONE. HE has a TRUMPIAN ATTITUDE, and we don’t need anymore like him in CONGRESS. #VoteDemocrat #JackyRosen #DumpGOP

        No worries. We are going to vote him out. He's broken too many promises just like the man he's protecting. @RosenforNevada is the only choice for SO many reasons.

        That’s a man who isn’t doing the job taxpayers pay him to do and who is breaking his oath of office. @RosenforNevada will replace him and step up and get the job done.

        Yes, a real profile in courage! Republicans are either complicit or too scared to stand up to Trump. Either way, that makes them unfit to serve on behalf of the American people. They are not putting America first.

        Every single arrogant TrumpRepublican must be held accountable for their behavior during the Trump WH. November MUST be a deafening Roar against them & by 2020 the entire @GOP machine must be nothing but a weak little whimper& the sound of a prison cell door closing on them.
