Rep. Chip Roy: GOP Focused on ‘Political Power’

TRANSCRIPT:

ROY: "We passed a great bill, didn’t campaign on it, immediately turned towards our own political interest in passing redistricting plans across the country, including Texas, spent our time trying to focus on political power rather than focusing on the people who send us here to represent them. That’s what happened. And it pisses me off. Whatever’s going on at the Kennedy Center and the grift, whatever is happening with ambassadors to Greece and the grift, whatever is happening with numerous people, you go down the line, and as I said, putting at the top of the ticket of the biggest Republican state in the nation someone who was indicted and impeached by the Republican Texas House. Somebody tell me why Republicans lost last Tuesday, I’ll say it’s because they were focused on themselves and the ruling class and not the people."
