Donald Trump Is Making A Comeback But Not As President

Former President Trump blasted Senator Lisa Murkowski by calling her a “disloyal and very bad Senator” and announced he would be campaigning against her.

“I will not be endorsing, under any circumstances, the failed candidate from the great State of Alaska, Lisa Murkowski,” said Trump over the weekend. “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.”

“Her vote to advance radical left Democrat Deb Haaland for Secretary of the Interior is yet another example of Murkowski not standing up for Alaska,” he said.

Trump’s statement comes as no surprise as he had said the very same thing last summer after Murkowski admitted she was “struggling” to support the president in his reelection because of how he handled the protests following the death of George Floyd.

Murkowski was one of seven Republican senators who recently voted to convict Trump on the charge of inciting the riot that shook the capitol on January 6.

The senator has had some close calls before despite the fact that the Cook Political Report rates Murkowski’s seat as solidly Republican. In 2010 she lost the Republican primary to a Tea Party challenger but would later beat him as a write-in candidate in the general election.

Trump’s announcement could put him at odds with the National Republican Senatorial Committee. Committee chair Sen. Rick Scott, told “Fox News Sunday” that he will support any incumbent Republican senator against primary challengers, even if that challenge is supported by Donald Trump.
