It was a typical Monday this week as President Donald Trump unleashed a rant against the "Fake News Media" and the "Democrat Party." According to Trump, the two are working in tandem to make him look bad.

It wasn't this all-too-common rant that stood out in the tweet, but a term Trump used to describe the GOP.


Trump accused the media and Democrats of making life difficult for the "United Republican Party."

But when it comes to the phrase "United Republican Party," Republicans aren't exactly united—especially State Senator John McCollister, a Republican from Nebraska.

McCollister called on Republicans against Trump to tell their stories, and people didn't disappoint.




Many of the replies featured veterans disgusted with Trump's actions.





Others were familiar with his past.



Trump may still pack rallies and have near-unconditional support from Republicans in the House and Senate, but a growing number of Republicans are coming out against him.

Just today, prominent Republicans George Conway (husband of Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway), Steve Schmidt, John Weaver and Rick Wilson wrote an op-ed in the New York Times entitled We Are Republicans, and We Want Trump Defeated.

The party is far from United.

MAGA Christians Rage After Being Asked Why They're Against Free School Lunches

With Christianity so closely tied to Republican President Donald Trump, the GOP, and Trump's MAGA movement, a person might assume a government controlled by MAGA Republicans would try to enact legislation based on the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Things like feeding the hungry, housing the unhoused, caring for the sick and the poor, welcoming the immigrant, and loving their neighbors. But MAGA is a manifestation of White supremacy and Christian nationalism, so MAGA Republicans at all levels of government have embraced the greed of the Evangelical Christian "prosperity gospel" that glorifies the rich and vilifies the poor.

JD Vance Gets Blunt Reality Check From CBS Town Hall Host After Trying To Blame Biden For High Gas Prices

Vice President JD Vance was given a pointed reminder during a Michigan town hall event moderated by CBS News' Tony Dokoupil when he blamed former President Joe Biden while offering an explanation for high gas prices.

Americans continue to struggle with a nationwide affordability crisis hurting their wallets as well as at the pump.
