When the story about Lisa Murkowski saying how “retaliation is real” broke, the thing that struck me the most was that Murkowski showed up looking like a beaten, abused wife. She almost seemed to be in a trance. And that is what got my attention.
Some years ago, when republicans started falling in line, I wondered if chump had some sort of compromising stash on them. When the boxes were moved to Mar-a-Lago, I wondered if one of those boxes contained the blackmail files.
Call me crazy, but even if you (like me) can’t stand republicans, we must nevertheless concede that there is something way worse going on than just greed or even white supremacy in some cases (shocked a few there didn’t I).
Why are some of the less hardcore Republicans so afraid of their own? It can’t be the threats only, most of those in congress, left or right receive a deluge of threats both credible and not.
Murkowski isn’t one who’s always made up to the max, but she’s had poise and posture. Watching her in this town hall was painful; that woman has had the rug pulled from under her.
Are some republicans receiving more than threats from their own? I’ve seen that look in Murkowski face before, I’ve been in that trance before, it was the day I received my son’s picture in class from an unknown number no words, just his picture dressed as he went to school that day. I stopped sending my kid to school after that. (this was in haiti).
There is something more troubling and more evil brewing in the republican party and even some of their own members are beyond terrified. I don’t know what warnings they’ve recieved but I know that fear.
