So did Ben Sasse release that audio? I think Brian Williams just insinuated he did

Brian listed his educational accomplishments, saying he's a smart guy then said he knows what he's doing. Hmm?? Is he trying to prepare for life after trump already? By making it seem like he was critical of trump all along? He's criticized trump before, but nothing like what's on that tape.

Sasse is two points higher than Collins in my book. Watch what they do, not what they say!

Not private remarks.

And fuck Sasse. What a spineless weasel.

He had the chance to bounce that monster out of power but tucked his tail between his legs and then has the bravado to come clean on a phone call.

Weak sauce.

He is as guilty as all the other republicans.

Spineless and corrupt.

about it not being a private call. So then yes, I agree with Brian, even though he did not come right out and say it. He knows what he's doing. Trying to separate himself from trump.

Too damn late now.

every couple of months he stamps his foot, says "damn", spews some phony righteous indignation and then falls in line...
