(90,773 posts)The boo-hiss and groan that begins even before the punchline is reached.
Simply saying her name - Susan Collins - starts the wave of eyerolls that end with people gagging in unison.

(2,342 posts)Anything but a statement. Ugh. She has built a sad career out of not being an advocate of anything and not being solidly in support of anything but rather being a coward that can claim advocacy for nothing.

(9,959 posts)... Susan Collins-Trump is done. She will become more and more concerned - she may even shout out, "I hate him!" on election day, but she's permanently linked to Crooked Donald.

For America to lose someone like Susan Collins would be an absolute shame, Manchin said during in an interview on C-SPANs Newsmakers program, which airs Friday night. I feel that strongly about this lady.
Manchin called Collins a dear friend and said hed go to Maine to campaign for her if she asked.
Do you think my party would be happy? Manchin asked, with a smile. He added, Its not about party.
