PS Pence won’t support the orange buffoon either, and Pence oughta know. He was in the room with the other adults.
8 years of lining up behind trump and she finally found some balls.
they will make a movie inspired by her bravery. "Lisa, a true hero"
@moonbus saidI think a lot of republican politicos are realising that trumps support is great for primaries but the kiss of death for an actual election to office.

Or they are comprehending that short term gains (trump winning, if that happens & the popularity behind him) will have long term detremental effects for the US.
trump can only be in power for 4 more years (max) and nobody else in the party has what it takes to continue down that same road with support. That mixing with devastated foreign affairs and the image of sucking up to the dictators of the world, might not repel maga-supporters, but any professional politician will seriously think twice about that route.
Same problem that the politicians have in the Netherlands. Wilders won quite clearly in the election, but to form a cabinet with him at the head….

@shavixmir saidWhat makes you think that a re-elected (or re-injected) Trump would not serve as President for Life, like his great buddies Kim Jong Un, Putin, and Xi ? He is on record saying that the Constitution should be set aside so he can remain in power, once. There is no reason to doubt he wouldn't try that again. And again.
