NRSC Chair Rick Scott’s declaration that the GOP “civil war is now cancelled” isn’t aging well. Just take a look at what’s happened in the days following Scott’s declaration:
Scott’s reluctance to choose sides in this all-out intraparty battle is widely attributed to his “presidential ambitions.” Now the GOP’s civil war is about to be “put to the test” as Scott and other Senate Republicans and prospective candidates gather at CPAC, where Trump will be speaking –– and McConnell was notably not invited. At this point, it’s clear: “we can safely say that the Republican Party’s internal strife is not over.”
