Senate GOP campaign chief says he will help Murkowski against Trump-endorsed challenger

Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), the chairman of the Senate GOP campaign arm, said on Sunday that he will help Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s (R-Alaska) reelection efforts, even though former President Trump has already endorsed a challenger against her.

“You had said you're going to support all incumbents. And I'm just curious, does that include Lisa Murkowski, where the former president has endorsed a primary challenger? And when you say you support, does that mean you will financially support Lisa Murkowski and actually help run a campaign against a primary opponent?” “Meet the Press” moderator Chuck Todd asked Scott on NBC.

“Absolutely. ... We support all of our incumbents,” Scott answered. “And fortunately for us, we've got great candidates running in our primaries. And fortunately for us, we've got Bernie Sanders candidates on the other side in many primaries, and so we're going to be in a great position in ‘22.”

And why not. John Cornyn made sure she was helped and funded in 2010 INSTEAD of the REPUBLICAN nominee.

Incumbents first! Daughters of former senators first! Democrat helpmates first!

Republican electorate: be damned!

Another confirmation I did the right thing by changing my registration to Unaffiliated after 1/6.

Rick, butt the hell out. You will simply get voters to hate you.

Go ahead and support her. No one in Alaska cares. We’re all tired of RINO Lisa and her escapades. It’s time to give her the boot.

This is what they did to Trump.

Then McCarthy, McConnell, Graham, and Grassley are going to line up behind RINO Tim Scott.

Tim Scott said the most important thing he could do as a Senator was protect the FBi and Mueller from Trump.

Why did the entire Leadership backup Liz Cheney after she voted to Impeach?

They think that once they get the lesser-of-two-evils democrat to win, conservatives will have no choice but to vote for the lesser-of-two-evils democrat.

That trick has lost its effectiveness.

And this is exactly why ‘sane’ ‘regular people’ no longer donate to the Senate and House GOP umbrella campaign money collectors, and send their donations directly to the candidates that they choose to support.

Old Rick just maybe wants to get laid???

Crude?
Sure!
But if we’ve ever been in times that call for crudity, these would be them.

Right on schedule, the Uniparty is there to attempt to take any momentum from the true Republican agenda. The same Uniparty losers that collaborated in the Senate to move along the anti-infrastructure bill and the same collaborators that passed it in the House.

All the more reason to vote all of them out. Spare no one. They do nothing and are reaping millions. Vote them out. Round them up and do an IRS audit on all senators and congressmen since 1990.

Winning the Senate and sending the same rinos back to Washington is a lost cause. We will simply watch the rinos rescue Brandon over and over, like we just saw with the socialist “infrastructure bill.” Better we let this mess disintegrate from the socialist left and support the the secession of the free states.
