I'm not violating any pledge of journalistic confidentially in reporting this: 21 Republican Sens–in convos w/ colleagues, staff members, lobbyists, W. House aides–have repeatedly expressed extreme contempt for Trump & his fitness to be POTUS. (1/3)

Just saying, if Biden for some reason isn't the nominee--and I strongly believe he should be--this guy, a progressive governor w/ heart, "likability," and COVID chops, could be the next president. https://t.co/h3N9ST2AKu

@page88 @PatrickTua3 He laughed then only bc he was caught off-guard--someone else beat him to the insult Hill punchline--& he was suddenly cast into playing the unfamiliar role of audience. Narcissists are always the performer--to laugh at someone else's joke is to take the spotlight off himself.
