House Republican admits Trump’s antics making it hard for her to get reelected

During a private talk to the Arizona Bankers Association last week, Rep. Martha McSally (R-AZ) acknowledged that the ongoing circus created President Donald Trump and his administration—in particular, the president’s reckless tweets—is damaging her reelection prospects.
According to Tucson Weekly, which obtained a recording of McSally’s remarks thanks to a source in the room, the second-term congresswoman “complained that President Donald Trump and his tweets were creating troubling ‘distractions’ and ‘it’s basically being taken out on me. Any Republican member of Congress, you are going down with the ship.’”
“The environment has changed and some of it changed on January 20,” McSally continued, according to Tuscon Weekly. “There’s just an element out there that’s just, like, so against the president. Like they just can’t see straight. And all of a sudden on January 20, I’m like his twin sister to them. And I’m, like, responsible for everything he does, and tweets and says. And they want me to be spending my time as a pundit. ‘I disagree with that. I agree with this.’ I have a job in the legislature!”
McSally’s not-meant-for-public-consumption criticism of Trump is notable for how it differs from what Republicans continue to say about the president in public. There are indications, however, that her sentiments are shared by some of her colleagues in private. Publicly, Republican members of Congress mostly defended Trump and ran interference for him during and after the Comey hearing, but privately, Politico reported that a number of them “were absolutely shocked at how poorly yesterday went for the president.”

So there's no reason for this not to exist.
It's news. Discuss it.

She doesn't get reelected until 2018. So she's whining without basis. Is that discussion enough for you, asshole?
>>
>>148632
That's next year and Trump will be out by then.

>>148794
This.

>>148794
Frankly, I wouldn't be too shocked if the Republicans did impeach Trump once they felt like they had decent grounds to stand on. Pence seems much more like the kind of Republican they'd have an easier time dealing with.

Very true.

They say the same shit for every president.

Literally all she has to do is keep at issues that matter to her local constituency. Apparently its the winning formula, appealing to your voters.

Localism worked well for the GOP. They never should have abandoned it.

>"Hard" means " literally impossible"
Are all Trump supporters illiterate?
Handel barely won in a district that should have been a 20-point lock. She did win but it was much harder for her to do so then it should have been, and not every GOP in Congress can expect to have $30m dumped into their campaign

>Handel barely won
Because the establishment spent record breaking dollars on ossoff LOL and you still lost
>>
>>151601
She won by more than Trump did 8 months ago. Grats on the record breaking funding to barely lose instead of just lose. Not sure where your 30 million number is coming from but its wrong even if you include super PACs. (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/06/20/us/politics/georgia-6th-most-expensive-house-election.html) The last two days have had enough articles to make a SPIDR.today catagory about how dems have to deal with their leadership having nothing to do with the common man. Ossof had 48% of the vote when the red ticket was split. He had 48% when it was just Handel. Ads tying him to Pelosi and those "San Francisco Millionaire" values cost him any Trump voters because, at the end of the day, you dont win a historically red district on pro-choice, gun control and "comprehensive immigration reform"
Dems have lost the house. The senate. Governatorial Majority. The Presidency. Just lost 4 elections including the most expensive district election to date. You have an election coming with far more to lose than to gain (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Senate_elections,_2018) and get ready because that "blue wave" we keep hearing about hasnt done jack yet. Fix your fucking party. Demand compromise before your party's retarded principles force you right out of the elections. Stop throwing money at problema hoping they will go away. Most of all, talk to conservatives like people instead of like dumb yokels who dont know any better.

>>151592
This. We'll win, and continue to win, until we got enough to amend the constitution, cut out all the cancer, and outlaw liberalism/atheism once and for all.
>>
>>151605
If they dropped shit like Dodd-Frank, TPP, net-neutrality, socialist medicine, welfare, and other self destructive practices, than they might actually win for once. The alt-right is rapidly pushing them out, and once they're out of power, then the night of the long knives comes for them.

It's called being apart of something larger than yourself you cuck.

>>151609
I'm a libertarian. The Democrats would be perfect for me if their economic policy made sense.
>>
>>151610
Nah, you're just pretendi g to be a Republican and trying to make us look bad.
I bet you voted for Her.
>>
>>
>>151612
Yeah, and you made us lose for two decades. The Republicans only started winning once we truly got conservative rather than try to appease liberals. Conservatism must be a movement of struggle, of combat, not compromise and debate. No rules are off the table when one's very survival is at stake. Or do you need more Scalises before you accept that we are at war with liberalism, and that when in war, you must utterly destroy your enemy. In ancient times, this was done through killing every man, woman, child, and sheep of an enemy nation. In today's world, simple legislation and punitive actions can do the job for us. Thank God that liberals are such gutless pussies for that.

>>151605
The democrats are dead. There will be no resurgence for at least the next half century.
>>151617
>Liberals are like children.
What do you expect from people who run away from the hard truths of the world? The rule of the jungle is the only rule that really matters.
>>151606
You don't need to outlaw liberalism. They'll destroy themselves. You just have to make sure they're the only ones effected, and then leave them to deal with the consequences themselves rather than bailing them out (Flint is a good case study on how you should let bad liberal decisions play themselves out).
>>
>>151617
Yeah, sure.
You wonder why /pol/ hates you cuckservatives so much, because you just totally discount the fact that we were the ones who got Trump into power and just guaranteed conservative rule for the next couple of cycles. What would you have done? Elected Jeb than got fucked by (((her)))?

>What do you expect from people who run away from the hard truths of the world?
I expect them to fuck off, eventually.
>>
>>151624
If we stopped coddling them and let some of them die through their own failures and market forces, then that would eventually happen.
