Former President Trump used a rally in Anchorage, Alaska, on Saturday to target Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who is up for reelection this November, asserting that “she’s worse than a Democrat.”
While Trump was in the state to campaign for several candidates he has endorsed, he focused much of his speech on Murkowski, calling her “a lousy senator” shortly after beginning his stump speech.
“She’s a total creature of the Washington swamp, but much worse than that, and a tool of a corrupt establishment, the likes of which we’ve never seen. The fake news media loves her,” Trump said.
The former president criticized Murkowski for opposing the confirmation of Justice Brett Kavanaugh while joining two other Republican senators and all 50 Democrats to vote for Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court confirmation.
He also slammed her for her vote in favor of bipartisan gun safety legislation passed in the wake of high-profile shootings in Buffalo, N.Y., and Uvalde, Texas.
“This is your precious chance to dump the horrific RINO Senator Lisa Murkowski, who’s worse than a Democrat. She’s worse than a Democrat,” Trump said, using the acronym for “Republican in name only.”
Trump-endorsed Alaska Senate candidate Kelly Tshibaka called Murkowski “Biden’s CEO,” adding that she was his “chief enabling officer.”
Murkowski has drawn Trump’s ire after she voted along with six other Republican senators to convict the former president after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot. In June 2021, he endorsed Tshibaka, setting up one of the most-watched Senate races for November.
Trump’s rally in Alaska comes ahead of the state’s Aug. 16 primary. Cook Political Report rates the Senate race as “solid Republican,” meaning that whoever wins the GOP primary will be considered the heavy favorite in November.

We can’t let Murkowski just get by on her good looks anymore
He was on fire. Good to see Palin.
I figure she won back after she got primaried out by vote fraud.
Back then I didn’t know enough to think it.
No nation has ever had so many post menapausal old ladies in high elected or appointed offices. These demented women are destroying the American nation with the power they now have.
Unfortunately, Alaska Republicans are the worst.
He doesn’t lie.
Read the article on the ridicoulous primary system in Alaska that will assure Murkowski being re-elected.
Ranked system voting
Maybe all those who vote Rino in PA, OH and other places will stop believing the lie that its better than voting dem. Only then, will the gopE stop running them. Your obedience to the patty is being weaponized against your children and their children.
Can’t agree 100% with him I don’t know anything worse than a democrat.
