The disgraced Brian Williams, who famously lost his NBC Nightly News anchoring job for repeated lies, on Monday wondered when Republicans will finally have “had enough” of Trump. Williams sputtered about a GOP break: “The question that occurs to me is, when will we know? When will we see that? When will men and women with the letter R after their names on ballots in November” split from Trump?  He added, “When will we know that they are getting scared and potentially have had enough?”      Washington Post columnist Robert Costa cited 2016 as an example of Republicans breaking from the President:  The story for three and half years, we’ve talked about it, they are so reluctant to speak out publicly because they still need that 38 percent, that Trump base in their own states, it may not be until late October like we saw with the Access Hollywood tape four years ago, where Republicans break. Even then most of them stood by then-candidate Trump.  How did 2016 end for Republicans? Does anyone remember?  The idea that liberal Brian Williams has any support or concern for the fate of the Republican Party is laughable. He then pivoted to chiding them: “And let’s be candid.... these are grown men and women, elected officials, adults in the United States scared to death of getting criticized or made fun of on social media by the president of the United States.”  MSNBC’s propaganda was sponsored by HomeAdvisor.

MSNBC Live 7/6/2020 3:27  BRIAN WILLIAMS: You can live a full adult life in this country and not see, until today, your president tweet in support of the Confederate flag in effect and also let's not forget minutes before we came in the air team names Redskins and Indians, which . I'll quote, this is piece you on co-authored with Phil Rucker. “On Capitol Hill, some Republicans fret, mostly privately to avoid his wrath that Trump's fixation on racial and other cultural issues leaves their party running against the currents of change. Coupled with coronavirus pandemic, and related economic crisis, these Republicans fear he's not only seriously impairing his re-election chances but also jeopardizing the GOP Senate majority and its strength in the House.” And Robert, the question that occurs to me is, when will we know? When will we see that? When will men and women with the letter R after their names on ballots in November, we saw a Republican senator from Iowa take a pass on this opportunity, Joni Ernst, this weekend. When will we know that they are getting scared and potentially have had enough?  ROBERT COSTA: Brian, we know a little bit, working with Phil on this story, one of the Republicans strategists we quoted on the record was a gentleman named Scott Reed who ran Bob Dole's presidential campaign. He’s now the chief strategist for the Chamber of Commerce. Reed's a figure who speaks for many of these Republicans. He's in touch with Senate campaigns daily. The Chamber of Commerce has invested millions. Spokesperson for the business community. He said on the record, these candidates across the country are very worried on the Republican side that President Trump's fixation on race is not just a series of tweets anymore, it's now part of his podium addresses. His addresses from the lectern, whether it's at Mount Rushmore or at the White House or on Twitter.  That's causing Republicans to wonder how can they now run with the President who in the latest Gallup poll has 38 percent approval. But yet, the story for three and half years, we’ve talked about it, they are so reluctant to speak out publicly because they still need that 38 percent, that Trump base in their own states, it may not be until late October like we saw with the Access Hollywood tape four years ago, where Republicans break. Even then most of them stood by then-candidate Trump. And most of them still stand by President Trump.  WILLIAMS: And let’s be candid, as you have been many times, these are grown men and women, elected officials, adults in the United States scared to death of getting criticized or made fun of on social media by the president of the United States.
