    Interesting thread. I don't think Murkowski is going to do anything significant to oppose Trump. Still, it verifies that the GOP elite knows what Trump is even as they bite their tongue.https://twitter.com/AndrewDesiderio/status/1268573621884268546 …

    Extraordinary comments just now from Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) who tells us Mattis’ words were “true, honest, necessary and overdue.” Says she’s struggling with the question of whether to support Trump in 2020.

        Murkowski "struggling" to decide if she'll support 45? Same old story.

        I'm not as pessimistic. Murkowski actually HAS voted against Trump in the Senate (notably on health care). Fingers crossed.

        Their response will be exactly in line with the degree of electoral risk they put themselves in by breaking with Trump. Murkowski won a write-in campaign and isn’t up this year. Someone like Lindsey Graham, otoh, will never break w Trump because it could cost him his seat.

        Everyone in knows what Trump is. Half of his supporters openly cheer him on. The other half, the ones with a few crumbs of shame left rattling around in their consience, spend all their time defending and rationalizing him with mental gymnastics.

        Too little, too late. Watch these cowards attempt to decouple themselves from Trump as the year goes on-nah. He's all yours.
