Murkowski Says Her Colleagues Are Afraid of Trump

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said her Republican colleagues are afraid of challenging President Donald Trump or Elon Musk, warning that she could face an expensive primary challenge for her criticism of the administration, Politico reports.

Said Murkowski: “They’re looking at how many things are being thrown at me, and it’s like, ‘maybe I just better duck and cover.’ That’s why you’ve got everybody just like, zip lip, not saying a word because 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.”
