Sen. Lisa Murkowski Panics Over Accountability to Voters for Blocking Trump’s Cabinet Picks: ‘Don’t Get on Santa’s Naughty List or We Will Primary You’
Gateway Pundit ^ | 12/15/24 | Jim Hoft

Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) expressed deep concerns about facing accountability for her opposition to Trump’s cabinet nominees, during her participation in the controversial No Labels National Meeting.

Her remarks, dripping with alarm and self-pity, laid bare her growing fear of primary challenges from conservative voters fed up with RINO lawmakers undermining the MAGA agenda.

Senators who attended the event are:

Bill Cassidy (R-LA) Susan Collins (R-ME) John Curtis (R-UT) Tim Kaine (D-VA) Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) Thom Tillis (R-NC) Todd Young (R-IN)

“My friend Joni Ernst, who is probably one of the more conservative, principled Republican leaders in the Senate right now, is being hung out to dry for not being good enough, and you’re going to get primary. Well, what’s this all about? Why are we doing this to ourselves?

“Well, what’s this all about? Why are we doing this to ourselves?”

if she has not figured it out yet, she never will. Problem is she is propped up by democrat votes.

You’re GD right Murkowski. We absolutely WILL primary your ass. The same goes for any other backstabbing RINOs who try to subvert our will by opposing Trump’s nominees.

Have no fear Turdkowski. Us Alaskans were retarded enough to keep Ranked BS voting; so you’ll be set to “serve” until you die in office. 😡

Lisa was primary’d out two terms ago - Alaska does not have a ‘sore loser’ law, so she ran to her friend in the Native corps who ponied up for her run as an indy.

Ranked Choice Voting was pushed by her power base to keep her in office - and spent *millions* to defeat the recent killing of the RCV measure this last election.

Yep. Totally agree with your assessment.

The GOP establishment and the Democrats are definitely in cahoots.

Incumbency in politics is like being a tenured professor in the educational system. Once a politician is elected, no matter badly they betray their constituents, it takes a lot to remove them.

Any republican who tries to sabotage president Trump should be replaced as soon as possible. We didn’t do a good job last time. All the back stabbers need to go. They are worse than democrats.

No, they counted until they found enough votes to save it.

She was primaried in 2010 easily. She then ran in general election as write in candidate. The Alaska Republican Party shilled for her and with the union/ native coalition she and the establishment republicans carried her across the finish line. That was when I said goodbye to the Vichy Republican Party. Now with RCV ( ranked choice cheating) she is senator for life. Thanks repubs.
