Jan. 6 Firebrand Turns On Trump: ‘Dishonest, Disloyal, Incompetent, Crude’
Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.), a onetime loyalist to Donald Trump who spoke at the infamous Jan. 6 rally that led to the assault on the U.S. Capitol, trashed the former president in a new interview.
“It would be a bad mistake for the Republicans to have Donald Trump as their nominee in 2024,” Brooks told AL.com amid reports Trump will declare his candidacy on Tuesday.

Republicans say they're done with Trump. But Trump definitely isn't done with them. Trump knows that he can still count on around 30% of the GOP electorate to follow him through the gates of hell. The GOP’s gnawing fear? Even if someone like DeSantis could somehow wrest the nomination from Trump, no one imagines that the former president will graciously concede or go quietly into political obscurity. Could he take that 30% with him? Or a big enough chunk to destroy his enemies?
Electoral defeat has focused the GOP’s hivemind wonderfully. Following a twice-impeached one-term ex-president has led Republicans to defeat in three consecutive elections. When Trump was a winner, they were willing to tolerate all manner of depravity. Now he is a political boat anchor, and they are suddenly discovering that their master is an erratic, demented and disloyal man-child.
For years, Trump has taken the measure of his fellow Republicans. He remembers the outrage and opposition he encountered in 2015-16, and how it collapsed. He remembers how he brought the GOP back to heel after Jan. 6.
Trump looks at the Republican universe — pundits, hacks, donors, lobbyists, consultants, elected officials — and says, “These are weak people. I have crushed them in the past. And they will cave to me again.”
Trump is making it clear that he will destroy Ron DeSantis if he has to. “I think if he runs he could hurt himself very badly,” Trump told The Wall Street Journal. “I will tell you things about him that won’t be very flattering. I know more about him than anybody other than perhaps his wife, who is really running his campaign.”
But DeSantis is NOT actually willing to destroy Trump, to see him ruined or even imprisoned. That would cost DeSantis millions of votes. And this is the asymmetry that drives the GOP’s cycle of dysfunction.
Trump can destroy the party whenever he wants. Yet the party can’t destroy him without also risking its own crack-up. So, once again, Trump is playing to the GOP’s darkest fears. His unhinged rants in Mar-a-Lago send the signal that he doesn’t care who he hurts. And he is ready to light his own house on fire if anyone dares to stand in his way.
Trump is already fomenting a bitter civil war in the Senate GOP caucus and may demand a Red Wedding in the House GOP caucus as well.
And there is not much the GOP can do about it. Republicans now know that they cannot win with Trump; but they also know that if he torches everything in sight, they can’t win without him either.
They have trapped themselves in a political prison of their own making.

“We are going to be asking everyone who sells drugs, gets caught selling drugs, to receive the death penalty for their heinous acts,” Trump said Tuesday to cheers from his supporters at Mar-a-Lago.
He’s not even bothering to hide the authoritarian roots of his proposal. Trump explicitly credits President Xi Jinping, the dictatorial leader of China, with giving him the idea.
“In China, when I was with President Xi, I said: ‘President, do you have a drug problem?’” Trump said Tuesday night at Mar-a-Lago, recounting Xi purportedly saying the problem was solved by “quick trials” where “by the end of the day you’re executed.”
“That’s a terrible thing, but they have no drug problem,” Trump said. (It’s worth noting that China actually does have a drug problem.)
