Axelrod: More than Half the Republicans Voted Against Ukraine Aid Because They Fear Trump and They Fear the Base

EXCERPT:

AXELROD: “I think Speaker Johnson deserves great credit for putting those bills on the floor. I was as thrilled as Scott with the outcome of that vote. I don't know -- I mean, he's been so thirsty as a regular Republican for regular order and for normalcy and for functionality, so I understand his -- his feelings right now. I need to see more evidence that this is a continuing thing. More than half the Republicans voted against that aid for Ukraine. Why? Because they fear Donald Trump, and they fear the base.”
