Shabibilicious Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) He will be missed for sure. I always believed him to be a straight shooter, devoted to the law.....I sincerely hope there's another fire brand in South Carolina to pick up Trey's torch. As to his future, who knows, maybe a bench seat is in his future. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trey-gowdy-won-apos-t-172637583.html GO RV, then BV Edited January 31, 2018 by Shabibilicious 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLadiesDaddy Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 I was going to say this is a great loss but the very first thing that occurred to me was, Supreme Court. Trey claims that he wants to go back into the court system and he would be AWESOME at the Supreme Court POLITICS BREAKING NEWS: Rep. Trey Gowdy WON’T SEEK Re-Election posted by Hannity Staff South Carolina Congressman Trey Gowdy announced Wednesday his plans to retire, saying he won’t seek re-election at the end of his term and outlining his plans to return to work in the US legal system. The high-ranking Republican released an official statement through his office, announcing his impending retirement; adding the GOP lawmaker “enjoys our justice system more than our political system.” “Whatever skills I may have are better utilized in a courtroom than in Congress, and I enjoy our justice system more than our political system. As I look back on my career, it is the jobs that both seek and reward fairness that are most rewarding,” said the statement. “There is no perfect time to make this announcement,” Gowdy added. “But with filing opening in six weeks, it is important to give the women and men in South Carolina who might be interested in serving ample time to reflect on the decision.” Rep. Gowdy is one of the highest-ranking Republicans to announce his plans to leave the US Congress. He currently serves as the Chairman of the House Oversight Committee and is a senior member of the Intelligence Committee. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many possibilities as to his decision to call it a day and the odd timing....."the memo" release could be an issue for him.....he might really be hoping for a Federal judgeship, or a SCOTUS position when the time comes.....perhaps even A.G. Sessions job, though Trey said he's done with politics and that position is obviously more political than judicial. Unless he shares more than he already has, I'm just going to take him at his word.

tankdude Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 I wonder if we could convince Ben Shapiro to move to South Carolina....just thinking out loud here... *LOL* I would love to see Mr. Gowdy as a judge on the Supreme Court. Even a Circuit Court judge seat would fit him well in my opinion. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm.....and yet your entire statement was gleaned from the information in the Nunes memo.....In the American spirit of transparency, it would be nice to know the entire story even if it hurts, don't you think? What is everybody afraid of?......Heck, you and those like you have already disregarded it without having seen it. GO RV, then BV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nstoolman1 Posted February 5, 2018 Report Share Posted February 5, 2018 My statement is based on fact. The DNC did in fact pay to have a false dossier produced with false evidence about Trump. That paper was then used to convince the judge to issue the warrant. The Rep memo came after all this was known. I would be more convinced if the Dems had come out before and come clean. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're assuming the dossier is fake.......You have zero proof of that, other than the words of Republican talking heads and Trump himself. Trey Gowdy himself, a contributing author mind you, said the Nunes memo has no bearing on Mueller's investigation. GO RV, then BV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
