Sen Tom Cotton says Trump should consider stepping aside if he can't "right this ship" by tomorrow

This was said at the Iowa GOP dinner tonight, reported by Des Moines Register political reporter Jason Noble on Twitter:

That tweet has an image with the full text of Cotton's remarks on Trump.

1. Last I heard, tRump was winning Iowa

according to the latest poll. So, what are they worried about?


Or are they lying to us about the polls?

2. It turned light blue a couple of days ago.

6. The Des Moines Register poll out today gives Trump a 4-point lead

never knew why it turned blue on 538 since no recent poll had Clinton ahead in Iowa. Of course with this latest bombshell the Register poll is kind of obsolete--all conducted prior to this controversy.

3. An interesting analogy.

In the Battle of Midway, the Yorktown was temporarily brought back to operational status by counter-flooding the ship--letting in more water to keep it from capsizing.

Then, slowed down and unable to keep up with the rest of its fleet, it was torpedoed and sunk by a submarine.

I'm just putting it down here so I can sound all prophetic and shit next week.

4. Read that Cotton was going to Iowa, but I thought he was kicking

off his 2020 Presidential campaign.

[mythology]

8. Perhaps righting the ship involves inventing a working time machine

because short of that, it's unlikely he can really escape admitting (or maybe just bullshitting in an attempt to sound like was "macho&quot that he sexually assaulted women.

7. Tomorrow he will say: Thank God Trump was able to right the ship

What a debate performance!

9. Is he the first Southern senator to chime in?
