Via Manu Raju:

“I wish that as Republicans, we had a nominee I could get behind. I certainly can’t get behind Donald Trump.”

Asked if she would become an independent, Murkowski said: “Oh, I think I’m very independent minded…I just regret that our party is seemingly becoming a party of Donald Trump.”
Asked again on if that meant she might become an indy: “I am navigating my way through some very interesting political times. Let’s just leave it at that.”

'Tradiional' Republicans: "If we just keep drilling holes in this boat, I'm sure we can let the water out and we won't sink!"

@GottaLaff Even when Republicans are "being brave", they're complete cowards.

@GottaLaff She’s a Republican and will always be one. Sure, she breaks with her party occasionally but never when it matters or changes the outcome

@GottaLaff I wish I could have any belief this was more than spinelessness, and a prelude to an actual break with the radical reactionary GOP, but…

@GottaLaff And I give to masquerading as 'independent minded'.
Bitch still stupidly thinks America's Nazi party is worth saving.

@GottaLaff Murkowski is always "furrowing her brow" but it's all an act to make sound bites like this one, in the end she'll fall in line and vote for him because he embodies her policy preferences. Her protests are always performative, never substantial, and mostly in the mind of the reader filling in meaning where it doesn't actually exist.

@GottaLaff I'm sorry, but everyone someone says 'get behind DT', I just think of how he is reputed to smell. 😖

@GottaLaff his reply should’ve been, can you get behind our democracy and vote for the man who wants to save it? Not are you going to be an independent. Why can’t the press ask the right question? Where did they loose their brains?

@clane22 This was from an article. She pretty much did say she wouldn’t vote for him.

The spineless GOP never fought for their party. That's how Felonious Fuckface took control. So I don't want to hear any goddamn whining from spineless republicans who ALLOWED their current "predicament" to become a predicament.

If you (GOP) gave a damn about standing for ANYTHING, you would have stood up to him before he corrupted your GOP.

You built this bed. Now sleep in it. Quietly, because I am sick to death of your whining about something you have the power to change.

@GottaLaff They get so close, but just can’t do it. The Republican anti-lib mind virus is so strong.
