Susan Collins is not brave.

Just the other day, after all the things she cited in her Op-Ed had already happened, she put out a mealy mouthed statement saying that Trump's attack on Somali immigrants in Maine was "unhelpful."

Really?

Maybe she was tormented, maybe it was hard for her. But this should have come two weeks ago after Trump attacked the Khans.

I'm glad she finally found her courage.
