Ruht row.
When Alaskan Senator Lisa Murkowski (R) chose to cross the line earlier this year and join six other Republican senators in voting to impeach Donald Trump, she had to have known that she was stirring up trouble for herself. The 45th President is well-known for prizing loyalty above most other personal attributes and he hasn’t tended to suffer those who he perceives as betraying him lightly. But Murkowski was in a uniquely more vulnerable position than the other six Republican “yes” voters because she was the only one of the group facing reelection in the 2022 midterms. Now Trump is telegraphing his punches and letting it be known that he has neither forgotten nor forgiven Senator Murkowski’s decision. In an interview with The Hill, Trump promised that he was going to be actively engaged in working to boot her from office, saying that he will travel to Alaska next year to campaign against her in the primary. Former President Trump vowed to travel to Alaska to campaign against Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R) next year as she seeks reelection… “I will not be endorsing, under any circumstances, the failed candidate from the great State of Alaska, Lisa Murkowski. She represents her state badly and her country even worse. I do not know where other people will be next year, but I know where I will be – in Alaska campaigning against a disloyal and very bad Senator,” Trump said in a statement to The Hill.
