On Friday, David Jolly, a former Republican lawmaker, slammed the GOP, according to The Hill.

An Overview of Jolly’s Statements

Jolly shared his thoughts about the Republican Party during his segment on ‘Real Time with Bill Maher.’ The former GOP representative began by stating that Republicans lack politically independent allies:

“The important part here about the enthusiasm spike among Republicans is that it is among Republicans. It is not among Independents.”

Shortly thereafter, Jolly stated that “there is no moderate wing” amongst Republicans:

“Republicans are now more excited but among the Independents, you know what they learned today? There is no moderate wing of the Republican Party. That was the message they learned today.”

The former GOP lawmaker then began to call out various members of the Republican Party:

Susan Collins is a not a moderate. Bob Corker is not a maverick and Jeff Flake is not going to be the next president of the United States. There is no moderate wing of the Republican Party so Republicans might be more excited over Kavanaugh.”
