Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina announced he will not seek reelection in 2026, shortly after facing public criticism from former President Donald Trump. Tillis criticized elected officials' motivation by politics over constituent needs and expressed relief at no longer being bound by political pressures, implying that this could influence his voting in the future. Trump's threats of supporting a primary challenger add significant weight to the announcement, potentially leaving Republicans at a disadvantage in the upcoming election. Tillis emphasized the need for genuine representation over partisan politics.
Too many elected officials are motivated by pure raw politics who really don't give a damn about the people they promised to represent on the campaign trail.
I will be meeting with them over the coming weeks, looking for someone who will properly represent the Great People of North Carolina and, so importantly, the United States of America.
I look forward to having the pure freedom to calling the balls and strikes as I see fit.
