🚨 EXCLUSIVE: The Trump Loyalty Index —

Our new database reveals that more than 85% of elected Republicans who have been in Congress throughout Trump’s term have largely stood by him through seven crises that would have crushed most politicians.

axios.com/always-trumper…
🤝 The index, built over the past year, shows in empirical terms the intense loyalty Trump commands.

The top 5:
• Rep. Glenn Grothman (Wisc.)
• Sen. David Perdue (Ga.)
• Rep. Matt Gaetz (Fla.)
• Sen. Kevin Cramer (N.D.)
• Rep. Louie Gohmert (Texas)

👎 Sen. Susan Collins of Maine has criticized Trump for all seven crises. Others who have most often been at odds with Trump:
• Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.)
• Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska)
• Sen. Mitt Romney (Utah)
• Rep. Will Hurd (Texas)
