McConnell ran interference with Trump’s endorsements. He even pulled PAC money from one and sent it to Murkowski.
Murkowski was the incumbent and incumbents are entitled to Senate Leadership Fund money.
You don't have to like it but it's one of the perks of being an incumbent.
Good point about McConnell’s support for Murkowski. In that particular race, Kelly Tshibaka would have undoubtedly won had Murkowski not been in the race. Meaning? The race was securely in Republican hands either way, so no money was needed to prop up Murkowski.
This anti-Trump crap is the same old tired story. We gotta run moderates, because those Trumpy conservatives just can’t win. The moderates always say the same thing. They were against Reagan, too.
You know? I always voted for and supported moderate Republicans when they won the primaries. When Trump came along, it became clear the moderates would never reciprocate.
Way too many moderate Republicans actually seem to take pleasure in our lost races. They expect us conservatives to be loyal but they have zero loyalty to us.
All these folks now saying told you so. Did they even vote? Did they back the party candidates?
The guy in NH was never going to win.
It seems everyone but the Trumpists on FR knew that.
