(MAGA, everybody – Promoted by Colorado Pols)
The Chair of the Adams County Republican Party joined other Colorado conservatives today in hot rage against U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner for calling for an end to the government shutdown without funding a border wall.
In comments trashing Republican leaders, Adams Chair Anil Mathai told KNUS right winger Peter Boyles that “we the people need to fight” the Republican Party. “Enough of the silence.”
“They have no steel spine, Pete, as you know,” said Mathai on air. “They’re afraid to take a position on anything. I mean, it’s very clear, they put their finger [in the air] and whichever way the wind blows. Right now, they cower down and don’t say a word…. The Republican Party – we don’t know what they stand for anymore.”
“Lenin had a term, called the ‘useful idiots,'” Boyles told Mathai. “Cory Gardner is a useful idiot. Mike Coffman was a useful idiot. Walker Stapleton was a useful idiot. Where is the Republican Party?”
Mathai went on to say that there is a “cowardice here within the Republican Party” that’s exemplified by Gardner “telling Republicans to vote for a Democratic budget.”
But the state GOP still has some “patriots,” said Mathai, citing State Rep. Patrick Neville.

Corey needs a nickname.
Is there any chance Amy Stephens could declare, build a lot of interest and then drop out so Senator Gardner doesn't actually have to run in public? again
Koch Sucker Cory.
Both Ways Bob
Buckpedal
Short Coffman
Mittens
Senator Spokesmodel
The Inconstant Gardner
A bit obscure but the best suggestion to date.
What’s wrong with Cowardly Cory? Constituents can’t catch Cowardly Cory.
or the Cowardly Lyin’ ? There’s a great photoshopped image out there for that.
Con Man Cory
also Corporate Clone Cory.

Has anyone tried to convince this lot that a wall isn't sufficient, but a National Superdome would be lovely, effective, and a testament to our superiority?
Anyone have an idea if there are government facilities IN Adams County impacted by the shutdown?
I'm trying to guess WHAT impact of the shutdown will pressure Republicans into recognizing they can't hang with the Sad!-ministration's "bargaining" strategy.
Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge is part of the Department of Interior, which is shut down. I'm not sure how much is in Adams County, without consulting a map.
100%
But … a) it's still a superfund site so no one goes out there. b) are there any staff?
There are many reasons to go to RMNA. I has a thriving herd of Bison and also a population of Black-footed Ferrets, including an educational exhibit. It's a birding hotspot with the lakes and restored prairie. They have fishing contests in the stocked fishing lake. Miles of trails now, too, and convenient to people in the neighborhoods surrounding it.
And yes, it has staff; they run tours, staff the visitor center, and probably patrol the areas where people still shouldn't be going. I'm guessing the gates are closed now, though.
DIA workers – lots of them
Federal highways
And that big Coast Guard base.
DIA is in Denver
Never heard of Anil Mathai. Must be some sort of very low ranking official.
In the “useful idiot” category, Donald Trump comes closest to being one. But he isn’t very “useful,” except as a laughingstock & lap dog poodle for Putin.
Why would you have heard of him?
He's a low information Republican douche.
