Republican Sen. Thom Tillis is seeking forgiveness. But I’m not ready to give it just yet.
The retiring senator's new book is, in part, supposed to be him taking accountability for his role in advancing the Trump Cabinet, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Before Kennedy’s confirmation, Tillis had said he hoped RFK Jr. would “go wild” as an outsider with new ideas. So, when he went on “The Weeknight” to promote his new memoir, I had a personal question.
As the father of a 10-week-old daughter — far too young for the routine measles vaccine — I asked: “Did he go wild enough for you?”
Tillis' response, and our resulting exchange, summarized the entire problem with MAGA's philosophy and the Republicans who helped it along.
