Sen. Lisa Murkowski isn’t worried her vote against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh will permanently damage her political standing back home, despite a tweet from President Trump warning the Alaska Republican “will never recover.”
Murkowski told reporters Wednesday she doesn’t know if she will seek another term in 2020 but isn’t particularly worried about voters in her state, or what Trump thinks. “I know Alaska’s political terrain better than he does,” Murkowski said in response to the Trump warning.
