Amash had tweeted his thoughts on obstruction of justice this past weekend after he finished reading the Mueller report, adding that he believes Attorney General William Barr intentionally misrepresented special counsel Robert Mueller's findings.It prompted Jim Lower, a Michigan state representative who once supported Amash, to announce Monday that he would run in next year's Republican primary.
