Republicans "peeling away" from Trump? Yeah...like a f*cking 1000 layer onion, one S-L-O-W layer at a time [View all]
Based on what we are ACTUALLY SEEING RIGHT NOW, this strikes me as more "wishful thinking" than any kind of magical "turning of the tide." TOO MANY REPUBLICANS still have their snouts burrowed between Trump's ass cheeks.
During a segment on MS NOWs Morning Joe, Gay made the case that Trump looks weak because he has not been able to fulfill his campaign promises despite the Republican Party controlling both the House and the Senate.
Compounding his problems, there has been a wave of GOP lawmakers who are creating more and more distance between themselves and the president.
Speaking with Lemire, she explained, He still can't really deliver what he's promised, which is getting America out of those wars and then really delivering for working people. Instead, It's the opposite, people are suffering.
Of course, because he's given tax cuts to billionaires, something that the American people have noticed, by the way, as they are suffering, she added. This is a political quagmire for him, and I think that's why you see him looking for distractions. I think the ballroom is a great example of distraction, and, you know, right now he looks weak and you can see that he's weak because
Republicans are starting to peel apart from him, and we have not seen that before.
