GOP's Mo Brooks brutally mocked after Trump pulls his endorsement and calls him too 'woke'
On Wednesday, President Donald Trump withdrew his endorsement of Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) for the open Alabama Senate seat.
Brooks, who has for weeks been fading in polls, was one of the first sitting lawmakers to endorse Trump's "Stop the Steal" election conspiracy theories and even spoke at the January 6 Trump rally that preceded the attack on the U.S. Capitol — but he recently urged Republicans to put the 2020 election "behind them," which Trump proclaimed in a new statement means he's gone "woke."
NEW!\n\nPresident Donald J. Trump:\n\n\u201cMo Brooks of Alabama made a horrible mistake recently when he went \u201cwoke\u201d and stated, referring to the 2020 Presidential Election Scam, \u201cPut that behind you, put that behind you,\u201d despite the fact that the Election was rife with fraud and\u2026pic.twitter.com/UuvVAGWnsa— Liz Harrington (@Liz Harrington) 1648037387
Commenters on social media laughed at that this turn of events, with many expressing their disgust that Trump has now stooped to making support for overturning the 2020 election the litmus test of loyalty to the Republican Party.
What a turn of events for Rep. Mo Brooks, who was the first to say he wouldn\u2019t vote to certify Joe Biden\u2019s electionhttps://twitter.com/reallizusa/status/1506604116662964232\u00a0\u2026— Olivia Beavers (@Olivia Beavers) 1648040630
Trump has rescinded his endorsement of Mo Brooks, who was one of Congress\u2019 most vocal proponents of Trump\u2019s election conspiracies and the first to publicly promise he would object to the results on Jan. 6.https://twitter.com/reallizusa/status/1506604116662964232\u00a0\u2026— Kyle Cheney (@Kyle Cheney) 1648040110
That\u2019s hilarious. Two reprehensible people in a slap fight announced by Queen Reprehensibility herself on Twitter. All goes to show that Trump\u2019s one and only concern is 100% total devotion and loyalty to him. Nothing else matters.— Person Woman Man Camera TV (@Person Woman Man Camera TV) 1648038383

He just can\u2019t get over losing the 2020 election. He has to STOP talking about the 2020 election. It\u2019s almost become a litmus test for endorsements!https://twitter.com/reallizusa/status/1506604116662964232\u00a0\u2026— Stephon Kennedy (@Stephon Kennedy) 1648039525

Look whose experiencing the Wrath of Donnie, it\u2019s no other than @MoBrooks. He\u2019s joined the long list of folks who are no longer useful to TFDG! The playbook is use them, defame them, give them a nasty nickname, & then try to destroy them.https://twitter.com/reallizusa/status/1506604116662964232\u00a0\u2026— JAS16UT\u2721\ufe0f (@JAS16UT\u2721\ufe0f) 1648038954
