Talk:List of Republicans who opposed the Donald Trump 2020 presidential campaign

New source for Murkowski

https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/06/lisa-murkowski-struggling-with-decision-to-vote-for-trump.html It clearly says that she does not support him. They include that she didn’t support him before and is struggling on whether to throw her support to him. But, for now, she is still opposed. Lima Bean Farmer (talk) 18:24, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

"Struggling" with supporting Trump ≠ "opposes" Trump. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:21, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

But it’s saying that she’s never supported him and has always been opposed to him. It doesn’t say “Senator Lisa Murkowski opposes the Donald Trump 2020 presidential campaign” but it says that she never supported him and still doesn’t (although she is considering it) and she may decide to, in which she will be removed from this list.

a bit of a stretch. Probably needs a better source Just Piping In (talk) 10:22, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

New Sources for Susan Collins

"Refuses to endorse" ≠ "opposes". – Muboshgu (talk) 19:21, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Does not support is opposition Lima Bean Farmer (talk) 19:48, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Precedent

Before anyone else says that precedent from the Republicans who oppose Trump in 2016 should be put in place, look at the article. I just took a quick glance, and it’s sourced by a lot of Tweets, which are generally not reliable, and many are just people who said Trump should withdraw in favor of Pence. It is a very loose definition and people who didn’t even say they don’t support him, just that he should withdraw, were added. I’m not even suggesting that. My proposal is anyone who is republican (and fits the current guidelines) and says they do not support or do not endorse Trump in 2020 should be added. I’m not suggesting “criticism” or people who are “undecided” but those who specifically state they are not supporting/endorsing the campaign should be added. Take a look at the other article and think about it. Lima Bean Farmer (talk) 06:03, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

seems to be the case now. Maybe start an rfc if you’d like Just Piping In (talk) 10:18, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
