Lisa Murkowski: Mattis’ Critique of Trump was ‘True, Honest, Necessary, and Overdue’
Breitbart ^ | June 04 2020 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) asserted Thursday that former Secretary of Defense James Mattis calling President Donald Trump a threat to the U.S. Constitution was “true, honest, necessary, and overdue.”

Murkowski, one of the Senate’s most left-leaning Republicans, made the comment while speaking to reporters on Capitol Hill. Asked whether she supports President Trump, the lawmaker replied,” “I am struggling with it [ and] I have struggled with it for a long time.”

On Wednesday, Mattis attacked President Trump in a statement to The Atlantic by accusing the president of violating the Constitution over the clearing of Lafayette Park on Monday and deploying the military to blunt riots in Washington, D.C.

The chaff continues to separate itself from the wheat. Is it wrong for me to gleefully look forward to what happens to the chaff?

I must pray on this.

Isn’t she the one who stayed in the Senate only because of a write in campaign?

Odd that the topic of creating a fake coup to take down Trump’s administration was also a problem within the Constitution....was not mentioned, by either ‘Poodle-dog’ or ‘wonder-lass’.

The Bushes are orchestrating an all out civil war within the GOP. They have all the career politicians and political leeches on their side. We have Trump and the base on ours. It’s going to get ugly and will probably splinter the party because everything a Bush does turns to poop. But what can you do.

His criticism was a transparent political screed there was no basis in fact the president has not been any threat to the Constitution nor has he sought to divide the nation that’s just political talking points.

The irony is striking considering that the president’s opponents tried to violate the Constitution by removing him from office with false charges.

You think both would see the conspiracy against Trump — Mueller Report, Obama spying, impeachment, the media, etc. — and sympathise and understand why he fight the way he does with the left. I have no time or tolerance with these ass holes traitors. They are an embarrassment to every decent person with common eyes to see.

Why not just say, "No?"
