Psaki slams 'spinelessness' of GOP candidates defending Trump
post-Colorado ruling

MSNBC host and former White House press secretary Jen Psaki took aim
at 2024 GOP presidential primary candidates Saturday, after the group
lined up to defend Trump following Colorado Supreme Court's ruling
that he be removed from the state's primary ballot.

The unprecedented determination argued Trump was responsible for the
Jan. 6 Capitol riots, and should be disqualified from the ballot under
the 14th Amendment. The case is expected to be heard by the Supreme
Court.

Following the ruling Tuesday, former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley
called the move "unthinkable" and undemocratic, while Gov. Ron
DeSantis (R-Fla.) said it was a political "stunt" that will actually
help Trump. Prominent Trump critic and former Gov. Chris Christie
(R-N.J.) joined the fray to disagree with the decision, calling it
"bad for the country."

Psaki said the responses are "part of a pattern," and show the
"spinelessness" of the GOP frontrunner's primary rivals in their
support of Trump against his legal woes.

"And polls of Republican primary voters give us an indication as to
why," she wrote.
