FormerĀ President TrumpĀ went after the flurry of GOP House members leaving their seats this year, throwing the already razor-thin Republican majority up in the air.
āNever forget our cowards and weaklings! Such a disgrace,ā Trump said in aĀ Truth Social postĀ on Sunday inĀ response to an articleabout outgoing Rep.Ā Mike GallagherĀ (R-Wis.).
Trumpās Easter criticisms were aimed at Gallagher and former Rep.Ā Ken BuckĀ (R-Colo.), who both chose to retire early from Congress, leaving their seats empty. Gallagher will resign from Congress in mid-April, leaving his seat open until next January, while Buck resigned last week to be replaced in June.
The openings, added to other vacancies in the House, bring the GOP majority down to just a single seat after Gallagher resigns, making the already difficult task of passing party-line votes that much harder. The situation has even led to some speculation that Minority LeaderĀ Hakeem JeffriesĀ (D-N.Y.) could be named Speaker, with some Republicans in revolt against SpeakerĀ Mike JohnsonĀ (R-La.).
They ARE cowards and weaklings. They are running away from the monster they created instead of getting rid of him. They are cutting tail and running for the hills instead of fixing the mess they made. āWe lost control of our monster, letās run away because I donāt get paid enough for thisā. Cowards all of them.
All of the orange mobsterās little people are cowards looking for his blessings. The ones who left are the lessor cowards as they realize they have been used and abused.
There is no ālesserā of cowardice here. They made a mess and are now running away from cleaning it up. They are maybe worse, they donāt care about country, they were only there for themselves in the first place and cut their losses and ran when THEY were inconvenienced and not going to get their way anymore.
