WATCH: Jim Acosta Explains How Trump the Snake is Poisoning the Republican Party
In mid-January, the Republican party had the chance to separate from Donald Trump. He’d been impeached twice. He was banned from social media. An the former president had just incited a riot on the United States Capitol building.
Instead they decided to double and triple down on Trump. So candidates, like Virginia’s Glenn Youngkin are completely dependent upon him. During a Saturday segment, Jim Acosta explained how this is ‘poisoning’ the party.
The CNN anchor began, “Republican operatives are privately grumbling that Trump is repeating what he did in the last Georgia senate race, encouraging his supporters to stay home and helping Democrats capture the senate. If it happens again next year, democrats will keep control of Congress.”

“Trump’s political career would have ended had Republicans just finally given up on him after January 6th. Instead, they took in that half frozen snake and they gave him another chance. In return, Trump is threatening to poison the party once again,” Acosta said. “A lesson, not just for Republicans, but the rest of the country. Letting tTump off the hook would almost certainly breathe new life into his chances for 2024. As the snake warned all of us, ‘You knew I was a snake before you took me in.'”
