Chaffetz Quits - Won't Seek Re-Election or a Senate Seat
What a disappointment he turned out to be. He talked tough for about two seconds and now he's leaving.

"Thank you for allowing me to serve as your Representative in the United States House of Representatives. Serving is an honor and a privilege that I have never taken for granted.

After long consultation with my family and prayerful consideration, I have decided I will not be a candidate for any office in 2018."

From grass roots to GOP establishment to gone in eight years - and just when he could have done something good in Congress.

That's a shame. He's one of the few good guys. He must realize that nothing is going to change and doesn't want to be a part of it anymore.

Tough talk? Dude, his committee does NOT have the power to prosecute. That's left up to the corrupt asf DoJ. Chaffetz is a hero who's clearly tired of all the corruption, and he's getting out.

Good.

He allowed complete lawlessness under Obama...then immediately opened an investigation into Kellyann Conway for talking about Ivanka's dresses.

He is a huge neverTrumper who can't wait to go on CNN and bash the sitting POTUS whenever he gets the opportunity.

I don't see you up there playing nice with pedos, rapists, murderers and commy globalists all whilst trying to thwart those sick fugs. If you have more balls, jump froggy. Personally, I love the self induced term limits. He may even be president 1 day.

He did, but then waffled on it.

Either these guys were GOPe all along, or someone got to them.

All bark, no bite - at least in Congress.

I'm really wondering if Chaffetz was/is a #NeverTrump goon. He said he wouldn't endorse, but he did vote for him. But he is from Utah and that's the base for the #NeverTrump McMullin lunacy.

Tired of all their lies.

And that ass was just "touring" South Korea and the DMZ on our dime knowing full well that he's leaving.

Wasn't this Issa's seat. The seat is jinxed.

Never trusted him cause I remember him saying he was originally a dmonrat.

How long do you have to stay in congress to have your pension vested cause he hasn't been there long at all right?

When the dirty talk tape leaked, Chaffetz was one of the earlier Republicans to withdraw his support.

Thanks for the pin!

I think there's a lot more to this than "I want to spend more time with my family" bullshit.

Frustrating!

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 58684934


Actually, now is the time to buckle down and get to work. The republicans have The White House, and a majority in The Senate and Congress.

*********

"In November 2014, Chaffetz won a four-way race to become the chairman of the United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. He was only the fifth Member of Congress in 89 years to become a full chairman after just three terms.[65]

He ran on a promise to emphasize reform, telling Politico that "the pitch I made to the steering committee is we really have to triangulate the problem if we're actually going to get to reform.

In order to fix the problem long term, we can't just be the highlighter pen. We do a good job highlighting things, but we don't do a great job of fixing things."

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

*********

So, now that he actually has the opportunity to fix things and help drain the swamp as the Chairman of The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, he walks.

Makes no sense, unless he was just playing us all along - or someone got to him.
