GOP Rep. Tom Rice had barely ever criticized Donald Trump before he shocked just about everyone by voting to impeach him in January 2021. His experience over the next 17 months in his district might explain why so few in his party have chosen to join him

“He’s the closest thing to a brother I have, him and his brother,” she said. “I don’t want anything to happen to him. I really don’t. And he’s taken on the biggest bully in the United States.” Fry, a state legislator first elected in 2015, was on his way to blow up balloons for his son’s fifth birthday on a Friday evening when Trump called his phone for an interview. Trump endorsed him on Feb.1. Another top candidate dropped out, and Fry began consolidating the field.
Addressing several dozen people at Big Mike’s Soul Food in Myrtle Beach, Rice didn’t mention Trump by name — but remarked that he’d “made his next election a little more difficult” by provoking a “fellow traveling the country with a whole vendetta list.”
