Collins spent the week refusing to repudiate Trump for behavior she’s criticized in the past, and again refused to answer a question that she’s answered in every presidential election for the last 24 years—what’s changed?


Senator Susan Collins had a banner week for refusing to condemn Donald Trump’s worst behavior. Check out how she’s been dodging questions about the president for the last seven days:

 

Refused To Repudiate Trump’s Attacks On Our Nation’s Fallen Heroes

 

More than a week after the Atlantic published a damning report that detailed Donald Trump referring to fallen American heroes as “losers” and “suckers,” Senator Collins has been silent on Trump’s remarks.
