Adam Kinzinger, the principled critic with a spine made of steel (or so we thought), just hit the brakes on his slow march toward redemption and made a hard swerve back into the warm, suffocating embrace of Donald Trump’s shadow.
Let’s not forget, this is the same Kinzinger who became a household name for his public rebuke of Trump and the MAGA cult. He stood out as one of the rare Republicans who dared to criticize the chaos and conspiracy theories that defined Trump’s presidency. He told us he was different, that his moral compass wasn’t for sale. He even joined the January 6th Committee to show the world he wasn’t afraid to stand up to the guy who turned the Republican Party into a reality TV spinoff. But now? Now he’s back to clapping for Trump.
