Former President Donald Trump went hard against Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski at a rally in her home state of Alaska on Saturday, denouncing her as being “worse than a Democrat.”
Campaigning for several candidates in the state, including Murkowski’s challenger Kelly Tshibaka, the former president said Murkowski was a “lousy senator” who hails from the Washington swamp, citing her opposition to Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court and her eventual confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
“She’s a total creature of the Washington swamp but much worse than that and a tool of a corrupt establishment, the likes of which we’ve never seen. The fake news media loves her,” Trump said.
The former president also scolded Murkowski for voting for gun control legislation after the shootings in Buffalo, New York, and Uvalde, Texas.
“This is your precious chance to dump the horrific RINO Senator Lisa Murkowski, who’s worse than a Democrat. She’s worse than a Democrat,” Trump said.
A Murkowski campaign spokesperson said in a written statement that the senator “has a proven history of putting politics aside and delivering for Alaska.”
“It is unfortunate that Lisa Murkowski’s political opponents continue to try to deceive Alaskans by misrepresenting her strong, demonstrated record

Traitors are always worse than enemies.
Assistant Democrats ARE worse than Democrats, but we still have freepers insisting that we must keep re-electing them.
Would any Republican actually wish to replace her with a Democratic opponent?
Better a RINO than a ‘rat is my opinion.
Yes she is worse than a Democrat. But the Democrats have a lot invested in Ranked (Rigged) Choice Voting, for which Alaska is a guinea pig, and they need things to go their way in the special election (defeat Palin) and in November (help Murkowski) — which means things probably will go their way. Without Rigged Choice Voting Murkowski would lose easily.
If (when) Rigged Choice Voting proves to be a huge success for Democrats in Alaska over the next few months, expect a big push for it to be implemented in as many other places as possible as soon as possible. It’s a scheme whose primary “advantage” is to marginalize and eliminate conservatives, which is why Democrats and other liberals adore it so much.
RINOs advance the Demonrat agenda and cause immense harm to Conservatism.
Her record is mercaptan strong.
Amnesty Senators like Rubio prove that every time they try to abandon the rule of law and surrender the country to illegal aliens.
Flimsey Grahamnesty has done it THREE times now.
Guess we owe it to Rubio to give him a few more shots at it..../s
It’s hard to believe this wretched woman has held that Alaska senate seat for 20 years. I guess it just goes to show the power of the uniparty.
I can find no fault with that assessment.
I’ve missed something. What is choice voting?
Maybe not Murkowsky, but plenty want to re-elect other Amnesty Senators.
Just like they re-elected Tillis, Cornyn and Grahamnesty.
That depends on the RAT, I suppose.
In some instances, I can find no discernable difference.
Traitors are always worse than enemies.

This!

It depends on how they vote. Most RINOs toe the party line when push comes to shove. For example, Murkowski wants to preserve the filibuster. Almost every Democrat wants it gone.
So in general I think you’re right, Brian.
