On March 11th, Adam Kinzinger cleansed himself. He tweeted that he wished he had voted to impeach Donald Trump, the first time. In fact, it’s the “biggest regret” of his now dead-man-walking career.
Thread (and admission): 1) I want to be honest, in congress I have only a few votes that in hindset, I regret. My biggest regret was voting against the first impeachment of Donald Trump.

I don’t know what “hindset” is, but he regrets not joining Pelosi a year earlier. No Republican, including Liz Cheney, voted for that impeachment but now, two years later, with his political career auguring in at terminal velocity and nothing to lose, he wants you to know how much he hates Donald Trump. In short, he has principles now. Back in 2019? Not so much.
