Why all the attacks on GOP pols now criticizing Trump?

We've been calling on them to do exactly that. Today's comments by Sens Corker and Flake are stunning, in light of the unified obstructionism they each engaged in against President Obama.

If we are going to be able to withstand Trumpist legislative attempts, we are gonna need to keep peeling them away.

OF COURSE they're self-interested hypocrites, that's not news.

In that light, these attacks on GOP members as hypocrites just as they are beginning to put their careers on the line, or sacrificing them to do so, by speaking out against Trump smells propagandistic to me.
