RINO Sen. Lisa Murkowski is attacking Donald Trump.
This is what she told CNN. “As a Republican, I wish we had a candidate we could support. I certainly can’t support Donald Trump.”
Sen. Lisa Murkowski is appalled by Donald Trump’s candidacy and the direction of the party, and won’t rule out leaving the Republican Party.
The veteran Alaska Republican was one of seven Republicans to vote to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial in the aftermath of January 6, 2021. He said he has broken up with the former president and will “absolutely” not vote for Trump.
“As a Republican, I wish we had a candidate we could support,” Murkowski told CNN. “I certainly cannot support Donald Trump.”
The party’s shift toward President Trump has led Murkowski to consider her future within the Republican Party. In his interview, he did not say whether he would remain a Republican.
Asked if she planned to be independent, Mukovsky replied: “Yeah, I think I’m very independent.” He added: “I’m just disappointed that it looks like our party has become the party of Donald Trump.”
She previously supported Nikki Haley and voted to convict Donald Trump.
Earlier this month, Murkowski, 66, made a last-minute endorsement of former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley, but Haley withdrew from the race days later after losing on Super Tuesday.
Alaska’s senators have long shown a tendency to go against party lines. Back in 2021, she was one of seven Republican senators who voted to convict Trump in the aftermath of the January 6 Capitol riot.
Only four of these seven remain in the Senate. So far, Murkowski is the only one of the seven to survive re-election.
