    Then again you are just assuming that this is the reason that he is speaking out. Besides, your camp doesn't care about conflict of interest as long as you approve of the politician.

    Of course they hate him Dr. He closed the doors to the free candy store. Now like little children who have been promised that Gov't will take care of your every need, they are crying because there is no more candy.

    Regardless of how you see it, they no longer give a fig about his demands when it comes to their economies. He backed them into a corner on trade. Where they get their gas/oil is their business - America is not paying their energy bills.

    House Freedom Caucus Formally Condemns Justin Amash…..


    It was unanimous. The House Freedom Caucus formally condemned Rep. Justin Amash's (R-MI) recent call to begin impeachment proceedings against President Trump at a Monday meeting. Having read the Robert Mueller report in its entirety, Amash tweeted over the weekend that there were enough questions in there to suggest Trump obstructed justice and engaged in "impeachable conduct."


    “It was every single person who totally disagrees with what he says,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) said after the Freedom Caucus voted on Amash's Twitter thread. They did not go so far as to vote him out of the conservative caucus, however.


    Amash is even more gung ho on impeachment, it seems, than Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. In a closed-door meeting with colleagues on Monday, Pelosi again insisted now is not the time. She, of course, is getting push back from some of the more progressive politicians.


    "I personally believe...we have to move forward," Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said......snip~

    LOL the Demos sticking up for Amash. Then as soon as he votes against them or says something about them. Then watch how they treat him.

    A reasonable person would explore the idea that his Chinese business interests are motivating his position.

    What would his business interests in China matter?
    Why would they matter any more than business interests in Russia?
    Why would they matter any more than business interests in the middle east?

    Why are you so suddenly worried about foreign business interests?
