Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski on Thursday said she is “struggling” with whether to support President Trump in the next election amid his handling of the unrest following George Floyd's death in the custody of the Minneapolis Police Department, while backing former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis’ condemnation of the president as “necessary and overdue.” Murkowski, R-Alaska, said she was “thankful,” after Mattis delivered an extraordinary rebuke of Trump’s actions this week. “I thought General Mattis’ words were true and honest and necessary and overdue,” she told reporters on Capitol Hill Thursday, while noting she has been “struggling for the right words.”

I’m sure had epstein offered her a donation she would have “struggled” with whether to accept it and then after the “struggle show” was over, quickly pocketed the money.

The only thing she really struggles with is trying to remember what party she belongs to on any given day.

She rather support the "ole has been gizzard", than the elected President of the United States? Vote this RINO Reptile out of office next election!

The rino's are coming the rino's are coming. I was worried when I read that she was considering supporting Trump. Now I know for sure he's doing the right things.

Who is surprised by this? I thought Alaska was conservative...maybe not. What a waste of human skin; but remember her daddy gave her that seat in the Senate! Her own words.

Murky has been a pain forever. She is 1/16th of an inch into the Republican party, useful occasionally, but a real life jerk much of the time, just like Romney.

Reminds me of Chief Justice Roberts. Always "struggling" with the inevitable moment of betraying who they said/say they were/are. Fake-o agony, for sure.

These two are the face of RINO's. Please explain to me what Trump was supposed to do with people who destroy property, think that all police are the problem, and who wouldn't support him or listen to him if a gun was held to their head. What could Trump had said or done that would have stopped any of this nonsense. If people have a problem with the all the so called protests and destruction blame the media, mayor's, and governors of these cities. Trump told them to employ the National Guard and offered help. If they didn't accept it, the problems caused by these enemies of America are on them, not Trump. Every time Trump says something it's twisted beyond belief by the media and Trump haters. Everyone of these clowns blaming Trump for everything can roll over and die as far as I'm concerned. As for Republicans pandering to the rioters, they can join the roll over and die crowd.

truly telling about this legislator. she has never done anything during her time in office and it is too bad that the people of Alaska haven't given her the hook a long time ago. do they breathe another kind of air in the DC area or is just that they are so out of touch with the rest of us?

She's TERRIBLY worried that if she supports Trump she may not get invited to some of the best cocktail parties in DC. THAT would be the ultimate problem.

What, exactly, has Trump done wrong? He repeatedly expressed his shock at what happened to Floyd. I believe he had the Justice Department start an investigation. He only threatened to use the Insurrection Act after three days of burning and looting with the local governments doing practically nothing to stop it. The Insurrection Act has been use twice in the last 30 years against riots. It specifically allows the President to send in troops in the event of riots with or without a request from state officials. What, exactly is the problem? The phony story about the tear gas and the "peaceful" demonstrators near the White House. It was a lie. The park police had every right to clear that square.

WTH is wrong with Mattis. He doesn't know what he's talking about. Trump has done nothing wrong and he is NOT being divisive at all. He is NOT clamping down on peaceful demonstrations. He is trying to stop the rioting, vandalism, arson, looting and killing. He is clamping down on terrorists--NOT law-abiding citizens peacefully assembling! Has Mattis been recruited by the leftist tyrants?? Old Murky never surprises me. She never cared about anyone but herself.

Come on Murdowski, the only thing you ever struggled with was pushing away from the dinner table.
