Another Republican turns away from donald trump. It’s not clear what his response will be, as he has been generally absent from the public eye for weeks.

Who knows how long his campaign can last with Republican Senators speaking out against him? Maybe a heavily scrutinized press conference might be necessary, with his leadership skills (and mental capacity) in doubt.

      Liberals when other libs vote out of line: Voting third party is bad! We must unite to vote against Trump!

      Liberals when conservatives vote out of line: Haha you’re voting for another idiot! You’re so dumb!

      If Trump is such an existential threat, we’re not exactly being super smart about defeating him…

        Your point is not clear. Should we be trying to convince her to do something she would literally never do?

    Any vote for anyone other than Biden (or whoever replaces him if he steps aside) is a de-facto vote for Trump, no matter how you try to justify it to yourself. Susan Collins knows this. She is fooling nobody.

    To come out as a never trumper at this point means she’s ready to retire. Because this is a guarantee she’ll be primaried next cycle. If only she could have shown some backbone and voted against trumps SC picks. Because, despite her lies, she knew they would cancel Roe V Wade in a heartbeat. She’s still a piece of shit.

    Hey, the NYT finally said Trump isn’t fit to be President two weeks after they wrote the same about Biden. I’m sure they’ll be reporting very soon about how much the Trump campaign is in trouble with another Republican defecting.
