Jared Golden's take is quite the hot take, isn't it?

It's refreshing to see a politician cut through party lines and speak what they believe might be the hard truth, even if it's a tough pill for their own side to swallow. His perspective on the January 6 riot and its impact—or lack thereof, according to him—on Trump's chances is a bold move, to say the least. It makes you wonder if there's a bit of strategic thinking we're missing here, or if it's a simple case of calling it as one sees it. Regardless of where you stand politically, you've got to admit, Golden's willingness to diverge from the party script in such a polarized environment is a rare find.
