Lisa Murkowski Rips GOP For Being 'Afraid' Of Criticizing Trump, Elon Musk

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Sen. Lisa Murkowski said her Republican colleagues are “afraid” to speak out against President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk because of the threat of being called names and drawing a primary. “I get criticized for what I say and then everybody else is like, ‘How come nobody else is saying anything?’” Murkowski told reporters. Because they’re looking at how many things are being thrown at me and it’s like, ‘Maybe I’ll just duck and cover.’” “That’s why you’ve got everybody zip-lip, not saying a word, ’cause they’re afraid they’re going to be taken down, they’re going to be primaried, they’re going to be given names in the media,” she added. “When people say, ‘Why aren’t you a better Republican ― and if you’re not, get out of the party’ ― until Alaskans tell me, ‘Lisa, it’s just not working anymore,’ I’m going to give you every last breath and I’m going to try and solve every little problem,” Murkowski said on Tuesday.
