Maine Republican wrote in Paul Ryan for president in 2016

President Donald Trump is already stumping for re-election in 2020. But at least one member of his party says it’s uncertain if he’ll become the GOP’s standard-bearer.

Maine Sen. Susan Collins, known as a Trump critic, was interviewed on MSNBC Monday morning and asked if she believed the president would end up as the Republican nominee in 2020. Her reply:

Trump will be our 2020 nominee.

There. That wasn’t too difficult to say, now was it?

Collins should keep repeating this. Either she’ll choke on it, or get it right. For once.

Yes Susan. I'm very sure the words catch in your throat when you try to say the. "Trump 2020!"

Just switch to the 'Rat party already.

It’s too difficult for this old crone to say anything - and even more difficult to listen to her.

DJT will be our nominee and will kick the Rat’s asses more than he did Hitlery. DJT is gaining strength and popularity.

It’s too difficult for most Republicans to claim the supremely stupid, and lead-eared Susan Collins as one of our own!

she is a political opportunist. She probably could not run as a democrat so she ran as a republican. She is a swamp dweller.

You ugly little back-stabbing liberal C-word. If OUR party and OUR President isn’t good enough for you, get the hell out.
