Comes from hanging out at MSNBC.
Any Republican willing to seriously trash other Republicans quickly becomes the darling of the New York Times and MSNBC... It’s how John McCain became known as a ‘maverick’... willingness to trash his own party.
Have you noticed there are no democrat ‘mavericks’? If a democrat trashes other democrats he becomes persona non grata to the MSM.
They drop him like a hot potato.
