Here are some facts:
1.) Lee worked tirelessly to encourage, and fabricate a facade of constitutionality to the former president's attempt to overturn a popular election defeat of more than 8 million votes. (14 hours days by his own account). READ: Mark Meadows' texts with Mike Lee and Chip Roy - CNNPolitics
2.) Lee willingly misappropriated a hero from my scriptures in praise of a man who is the antithesis of everything that hero represented. See here
3.) Lee has continued to support the former president's position. Most recently by arguing the merits of the pseudo-scientific documentary 2,000 Mules. '2000 Mules': Sen. Mike Lee says it raises questions about ...
4.) Lee's record is hardly the beacon of bipartisan accord. The man refuses to vote yes on even the most benign presidential appointment. See here: https://www.lee.senate.gov/voting-record-1 and here for clearer explanations of the votes: https://justfacts.votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/66395/mike-lee
5.) Calling a refundable tax credit a legislative triumph is a bit of a stretch. You would be hard pressed to find a single senator a congressman who would vote against a gift to voters when their party is in power and they can gain the credit. Proving the point, Mike Lee noticeably did not support child tax credits under Biden.
6.) Nothing McMullin has actually said is incorrect. Lee joined the sycophantic likes of Cruz, Paul, Hawley for the majority of Trump's tenure. He votes on the far right, as McMullin has said, and that may not be a huge problem if Lee maintained any dignity during the Trump years. But he didn't, he prostituted his dignity for every scrap he could get the president to throw at him.
But then again, two of you Congressmen have been nearly as sycophantic as Lee.
