Trump chides Republican lawmakers who broke from party

In a meandering address, the president spent time calling out moderate Republican lawmakers who have broken from the party recently, while noting that Democrats “stick together”.

“They don’t have a Rand Paul that votes against everything. I got him elected twice. He was stone cold loser,” the president said of the Kentucky senator who co-sponsored a war powers resolution that would curb the Trump administration’s ability to conduct further military operations in Venezuela without approval from Congress. “And you have Lisa Murkowski, and you have Susan Collins – disasters.”
