Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo) is not a conservative firebrand, but he's been pretty tepid about the White House dumpster fire for the last couple of years, and has basically voted in lockstep with the GOP Majority.
But now that the Democrats swept the state-wide offices last November, and he's up for reelection in 2020, all of a sudden he's the Bold, Independent-Thinking, and Bravely Standing Up to Donald?
Sorry, Cory. Too little, too late, unless you seriously back it up with your vote.
