National Republican Congressional Committee Chair (NRCC) Tom Emmer warned former President Trump against backing primary challenges to Republican lawmakers who voted to impeach him. 
Emmer made the comments in an interview with Politico. 
“He can do whatever he wants,” said the Minnesota Republican. “But I would tell him that it’s probably better for us that we keep these people and we make sure that we have a majority that can be sustained going forward.” 
On Trump weighing into the primaries, Emmer said, “That’s not gonna be helpful.”

    They should be begging Trump for help, not the other way around.

    Feckless Repubs, Trump should continue busting them up.

    I’m guessing that Tom Emmer is one of those guys who has not a clue how the public feels about the incumbents.
Out of touch is being extremely kind.

    It would appear that Tom Emmer is on the Soros payroll.

It’s Trumps turn to stab you RINOs in the back.

    They should be thanking Trump for not starting a third party.

    stay tuned. you’ll soon see what the majority saved us from.
we’ll be picking the lice out of each other’s hair in the internment camps that Comisar of Public Safety AOC sends us to.

    But I would tell him that it’s probably better for us that we keep these people and we make sure that we have a majority that can be sustained going forwardWell there are 75 Million Trump supporter who are pretty hacked off and think we would rather have Pelosi running the country than a majority of your kind of traitorous backstabbing grifting RINOs. We tried Ryan's way. It didn't work out to well for us.

    “But I would tell him that it’s probably better for us that we keep these people and we make sure that we have a majority that can be sustained going forward.” 'Us' and 'we' refer to the NRCC and the Uniparty, not conservatives.

    No one gives a s*** McConnel about the "head" of the RINOublican party.
