Leslie Marshall: Republicans Are Going To Have To Decide To Stick With Trump Or Bail And Save Themselves
FOX News contributor Leslie Marshall on “Special Report” said Republicans are hemorrhaging independent and Latino voters and will have to decide if they continue with or bail on President Donald Trump.
RICH EDSON, FOX NEWS: Yeah, and that’s the challenge for Republicans. Leslie, the challenge for Democrats, you would think in this year, when the other party controls the White House, the Senate, and the House, that you are going to cruise in November. But do Democrats have what it takes, the message, the answers, to what it takes to at least take back the House? LESLIE MARSHALL, DEMOCRATIC COMMENTATOR: Oh yes, and possibly the Senate. We only have to flip four seats. Look, and especially when you’re serving a caviar bar, when people today are getting huge premium bills, that’s just so out of touch with the people. And I want to thank the President and Republicans for doing that. It certainly helps my party. But I want to talk about some other numbers. Lowest approval ratings, historically. Not just for Donald Trump, but pretty much for almost any president at this time. Also, Donald Trump is not on the ticket. That’s going to hurt Republicans. And then, the people that have, you know, said, I’m bailing on Trump, because like I mentioned it before, you have hemorrhaging, independent voters, Latino voters, youth voters. Republicans, they’re going to have to decide, are they going to stick with him, or are they going to save themselves? Hello, Marjorie Taylor Greene, obviously. What happened when she didn’t stick with him? So, look, I never take anything for granted, and I understand all the markets. Now we have like an 80-some percent chance, I think, as of today, of taking back the House. And it’s, you know, gaining for the Senate, and then history is on our side as well. But Democrats have to deliver, and I would agree with you, it is affordability. But Republicans aren’t delivering affordability, and that’s very helpful to my party.
