Polis has praised Trump on multiple occasions. Both on appointing RFK Jr. (WTF?) and on Venezuela. This goes well beyond “moderate politics”. He’s actively praising Trump’s picks and policies.

Hopefully this ends any future aspirations within democratic politics. He’d be another Fetterman if he got elected to the senate. I think he was entertaining a presidential run. lol, that’s definitely dead in the water, but I think the state dems won’t nominate him for the senate either. This is likely the last straw.
