It Has Gotten So Bad That Even Republicans Are Refusing To Defend Trump’s Intelligence And Sanity

Congressional Republicans are being asked about Trump’s intelligence and sanity, and they are responding by not defending their president.

Garrett Haake of NBC News reported on the Republican strategy when asked about Trump’s sanity and intelligence, “Deflect at much as possible. Degrade the quality of the journalism in the book and to the degree possible and someone like Lindsey graham does it all the time, laugh it off. Try to change the subject. Generally the way Republicans are handling this issue.”

Republicans would be hitting the roof if Democrats did the same thing when Obama was in office. Imagine if Democrats refused to defend Obama from birther allegations, Republicans would have had a field day.

Congressional Republicans are trying to change the subject or deflect the question when they are asked about Trump’s intelligence and stability because they know the truth. They know that Trump is not stable or intelligent, and they don’t want to put their next out in defense of an unstable moron.

Trump’s intelligence and sanity are going to be issues in the midterm election. As long as Trump keeps acting crazy, Republicans are going to be judged by voters on how they handle questions about the president.
