Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) is amping up his calls for the party to split with former President Trump, arguing Republicans won’t take back the majority if they continue to embrace his brand.
“I don’t know what that looks like, all I know is I can rest with real peace knowing that I’m going to fight as hard as I can to get a normal functioning Republican Party,” he told CNN’s Chris Cuomo on Monday night.
Kinzinger is a vocal Trump critic who was one of the 10 GOP lawmakers in the House to vote to impeach the former president for inciting a deadly insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6, where rioters attempted to stop the certification of Electoral College votes.
He argued last week that the direction the party will take remains to be seen, but feels that embracing personality over policy is detrimental to its long-term viability.
"I don't understand why we can't say such a basic thing which is that Joe Biden is the President," says Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger. "Look. We lost. Donald Trump lost and instead of complaining about that, we need to figure out why, and try to get more votes… next time." pic.twitter.com/f0bPvgfQ1w

Kinzinger is yet another swamp dweller that is out of touch with America
“Donald Trump lost and instead of complaining about that, we need to figure out why, and try to get more votes… next time.”
This is an awful broad WE. It’s rather clear that this guy doesn’t have a clue but he wants the voting public to keep HIM in office none the less. He should have taken an interview with his local Postal Carrier instead. Maybe he’ll score one of Cuomo’s sausage sandwiches at best.
How dare this marxist buffon claim to be a republican. He DOES not have a clue and is out if touch with reality. An obvious maxcist plant in the party
He’s a Democrat in an ill-fitting Republican suit. Illinois
politics are what they are, still waiting for and refusing a cure.
Don’t worry Adam, you are going to be Primaried by a real Republican and a beautiful woman at that. I can’t wait until she sends you packing.
Trump loses the whitehouse, senate and congress all in one term….also kills 500K Americans with his awful handling of the virus…but you guys are angry about a combat vet who wants to prevent the GOP from being the white people’s version of North Korea? Losers……..
Wow1:22 up late drining himself into delousions.. trump/rep did not lose..the democrats cheated. Another fake news is 500,000 dead..a lie… 9,500 approx died directly from COVID-19. AND YOU ARE VERY CONFUSED..the democrats are closer to ditactors then any republican. Kim jung biden is a marxist pig and will not bring us together but divide us ..your either for karl marx (dems) or thomas jefferson(rep)..judging by your post your a marxist but are to ignorant to see that!!
You know I was going to try to have a respectful conversation with you even tho I know facts are tough to handle. But then I read “Trump killed 500,000 people because of covid “ and I realized just how utterly ignorant you are. You can’t even think for yourself. But hey enjoy Biden. No doubt you are one of the brain dead voters that voted for him. He’s doing a bang up job already. Over 50 executive orders, kids back in cages, pipe line cut, loss of 11,000 jobs, working with Iran, bombing Syria and gas is sky rocketing. Did I miss anything? Who’s the loser now Sparky??
Trump was cheated as we all were and the Plandemic was a hoax but if it were real Trump would’ve saved millions closing the border and stopping international travel at the same time Democrats were saying to go out in public and to keep the border open
