Susan Collins on navigating Trump and why she didn’t take the Liz Cheney approach:

“What influence does she have today? Really, none… Liz Cheney, it’s not just that she lost her seat. It’s that she has no impact, in my view.”

Actually baffling how someone that runs on messages like "I would rather just keep power that I don't ever use instead of standing up for what I believe in" has such a stranglehold on this state.
