A senior House Democrat reportedly told Axios that many in Congress have resigned themselves to a second Trump term following an assassination attempt on the former president’s life this weekend.
While most lawmakers who spoke to Axios said that they could not make any proper predictions until after the Democratic National Convention, at least one senior leader believed that former President Donald Trump will win the election.
“We’ve all resigned ourselves to a second Trump presidency,” the lawmaker was quoted as saying.
This anonymous quote sparked numerous reactions on social media.
“If you’re a ‘senior Democrat’ that feels this way, you should absolutely retire and make space for true leadership that refuses to resign themselves to fascism. This kind of leadership is functionally useless to the American people. Retire,” said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).
