I know this is old and hinges on your favor of trump, but I have more respect for Sen. Young after this and his breaking away from Republican shenanigans regarding this border security.

I'm trying to compare Young and Braun on some of the current topics

Braun's account made a stupid social media post regarding border security/immigration recently.

I'm trying to figure out why he and party liners reject it so hard.

I appreciate that young broke away from herd on something.

I don't know how those two both got elected in Indiana when they're so different despite both being Republicans. I guess Hoosiers will vote for anyone with an R next to their name. But I'm betting Braun will be our next governor, sadly. On the other hand, Trump endorsed him and we know his track record. Still...

Plus, we had one D prior.

Well, they only got elected by 50.7 and 52.x percent.

I guess in lieu of multiple parties, or no parties, I'll take ones that differ from at least all extremes.
