Washington (CNN)Republican Sen. Ben Sasse criticized President Donald Trump earlier this week during a phone call with constituents, saying a number of unflattering things about the President, including that he's "flirted with White supremacists" and "kisses dictators' butts," his office confirmed to CNN.
"The way he kisses dictators' butts. I mean, the way he ignores that the Uyghurs are in literal concentration camps in Xinjiang right now. He hasn't lifted a finger on behalf of the Hong Kongers," Sasse said in response to a constituent's question about his relationship with Trump and his past criticisms of the President.
"The United States now regularly sells out our allies under his leadership. The way he treats women and spends like a drunken sailor. The ways I criticized President (Barack) Obama for that kind of spending I've criticized President Trump for as well. He mocks evangelicals behind closed doors. His family has treated the presidency like a business opportunity. He's flirted with White supremacists," the Nebraska Republican said.

Sen Ben Sasse is no hero. He is an enabling villain.
Another Putin asset.
Rudy Guiliana and Russia Connectiion is under investigating . Trump and Rudy are criminals.
I don’t remember Sasse voting to remove trump during the impeachment so these words are as empty as that place where his soul should be.
@Facts not emotions That’s all window dressing. None of those issues will increase your take home pay or better your life.
Yeah i heard it all from ignorant Trump voter. BThere worthless sll they want is handouts
Is this the same guy who “questioned” A. C. Barrett at the SCOTUS hearings like a conversation they would have at the dinner table at home on Thanksgiving?🤦🏻♀️
One foot on the ship, one in the lifeboat. No convictions, no morals, just opportunistic grifters.
Exactly. It s called Republicans 🤷🏻♀️

The rats will have to trample each other to get of this ship, as it’s going down fast.
Ben Sasse – a profile in cowardice. but he fits right in to today’s GOP.
Play up to the bully, then when he’s not looking, cut him down. This says more about you, Mr. Sasse, than it does the president. Why didn’t you stand up to the bully? You now only say something when he’s about to go down, and take the rest of the GOP with him.
At least he’s finally saying something even if he’s just a rat leaving the sinking ship.

Why didn’t he vote to impeach.
The rats are jumping ship
Neither did any of the Democratic senators. That’s because Mitch McConnell would not allow the Senate to take a vote on the impeachment charges.
Because it was a lie lmao. The only one who colluded with foreign powers is Biden.
@Tristan Kinnamon shut up Tristan
@A F what kind of logic is that
The rats are jumping off the sinking ship that is the Trump presidency.
@Winston Shore history will be created this time, because they’ll get it so wrong🤣🤣🤣

Republicans call them “necessary evils.” Everyone else calls them “moral atrocities.”
Burisma ever hear of that!
@Patrick Tolman are you talking about the Russian hack that the intelligence community is looking into because of the false information they are spreading? Yeah I heard about that.
@Octavian Popescu wa wa wa wa wa flag burning cop killing rioting corrupt dumbocrat!💩👎🇨🇳 ChinaBiden/ Burisma Hunter💩💩
@Catherine MacAskill oh back to the Russia BS again, riding a dead horse there lady! How about ChinaBiden, Burisma Hunter and Obummer selling out America to China! I know ….you have to look the other way like all flag burning cop killing rioting dumbocrats do! Those three are pieces of crap!🇨🇳💩💩💩👎
He’s only saying this because Trump is tanking in the polls and dragging the Republicans with him. He didn’t do the right thing during the impeachment hearing. That shows more about how much he’s an opportunist and won’t do the right thing. He, like the other republican senators, have put party over country.
@Javier Moya And… after 4 years of Trump, it’d be dumb to go on the offensive against Biden at this point. Biden’s candidacy is a compromise in and of itself. He’s beyond his prime but was the strongest link between the party factions and less likely to alienate independents and disaffected Republicans.
how sophomoric…TRUMP will win this handily…you guys picked an ‘impossible’ candidate and he picked a terrible running mate.
@leroy Leach Keep at it ‘Leroy. More, more, more trump nonsensical support comments.. That’s the only was you trolls get paid.
@John Z no doubt it’s a compromise…but I fail to see how its dumb to hold biden to standards? I recognize trump is bad but we should ne going on the offensive on biden when it’s necessary….instead of letting him pass unchecked bc “we have to do what’s necessary to get revenge on trump”
@Javier Moya Biden is trying to appease the wing of the party concerned that Barrett will be the deciding vote to overturn Roe vs Wade. Biden is more of a traditionalist and I doubt he’d stack the court by adding justices. But you never know. I get your point but the upshot is the prize at the moment is a different President.
The Republican Party is the Trump Party now. They sold their soul four years ago when they enabled this con man. Lincoln must be spinning in his grave right now.
How do you Snowflakes actually make it thru the day lol Enjoy the Trump Landslide Victory ✌
Rudy Guiliana and Russia Connectiion is under investigating . Trump and Rudy are criminals
@Cộng Sản You must be under a Rock it was
@Cộng Sản It was Scumbag Obummer, Quid Pro quo Joe and The Murdering Hillary Clinton all along and let’s not forget Crackhead Hunter. Enjoy the Trump Landslide Victory ✌
@Andiamo 18 theyre actually so delusional i question if the comments come from like kids and im only 21. Y do they think anyones gunna care about this one republican saying a bunch of bs. I love how he complained about china like the left doesnt use thier slave labor in factories and trump is doing everthing to fight china and impose sanctions, send officials to recognize tiawan, send ships to the south china sea to stop chinas island takeovers. How can he say hes doing nothing where was congress and other world leaders doing for china before trump took office absolutely nothing.. the chinese internment camps in Xinjiang didnt just spring up 3 years ago get real..like what do they expexct an all out war so that they can blame him for that too and then we can all die from it. Maybe if they did their jobs in politics the last 40 years we could have forced china to stop 40 years ago but all the leftist and companies wanted in to chinas market, disney,tech companies, wallstreet,nba those ruch leftyies who like to speak out about blm in America but go over to china and play ball while their government is running internment camps they literally had a practice facility in Xinjiang what a joke these billionares lecture us on the left and then go and buudy buddy with chinas money aint nobody in the nba speaking up about Xinjiang
Sasse is just another rat jumping ship who has supported Trump the entire time. A real coward to US for not challenging POTUS when it really mattered.
@leroy Leach DUMP TRUMP 2020!
So you admit Republicans are rats. Good for you. Baby steps.
@Ron Wuerch the man has a PhD and two master’s degrees, I believe from Harvard and Yale so he’s capable of putting his thoughts together. Dang, I can’t believe that I, a Democrat, am defending a Republican to a Republican. This world really has gone nuts.
@Cộng Sản yup. The Russians scammed RuRu.
no pride whatsoever.
Thus far, the attacks on voting in states like Ohio and Texas seem to have backfired, leading to more awareness, more outrage and, ultimately, higher turnout. But in the long term, Americans must reckon with the fact that one of our two political parties increasingly sees representative democracy as either a hassle or a threat.

Finds his spine now, that trumps defeat looks likely. They are a bunch of cowardly opportunists. Watch them get on their high horses between nov and jan if trump is wiped out.
Let’s see if Sasse stands up to Trump and vote against his SCOTUS pick.
RIGHT!!
@K Hawk THANK YOU!
Never happen. We wish. If she had any integrity, she’d recuse from anything to do with Trump’s crimes,but that sweet lifetime seat is to tempting. She’s selling out America, just like Trump, and the GOP. Vote Biden/Harris, and democrats across the board. Impeach Kavanagh ! God bless America,her troops, and all her People.

@QUID-PRO-QUO J0E I figure you for a bot,so I’ll answer your question with a question. Who does Trump owe $400,000,000 ? Your boss Vladimir? Tell him to 🖕off. God bless America, her troops, and all her People. Capt.Bob, SV 27th Chance, Tampa Fl
He is saying it now after all this time. Politicians like this are responsible for the emergence of Donald Trump. At least Trump though evil speaks his mind.
Good point
Trumps not evil hes just speaks his mind hes snot playing a president on tv like obama making speeches..
@RDA Now if I go ahead and say Trump is a good guy is that going to make any difference. Still we have 218k people dead in this country, millions infected and millions without jobs.
Ben Sasse has no moral authority to call out Trump, he has been complicit all along.
But thank God he is! Now, we need more Republicans to stand up and do the right thing.
@Amanda Roberts that may happen but i doubt it till after the election
Don’t ever fall victim to the belief that T won’t win this. He has stacked everything in order to be elected (heaven forfend) and BB is making double sure of it. VOTE VOTE VOTE BLUE all the way. Allow America to become “we, the people” again and not this me, me, me divisiveness under this administration.
Vote blue and The four congresswomen — Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts will run the country. Cant waitl
