Yeah, I think that New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez has no intention of letting Trump inject a brain slug into her cerebral cortex:
New Mexico’s Susana Martinez, chairwoman of the Republican Governors Association, did not mince words: She told the crowd of about 60 wealthy GOP backers that, as a Latina, she was offended by Trump’s language about immigrants. Noting her years working as a prosecutor on the Mexico border and now as a border-state governor, Martinez said Trump’s plan to build a wall and force Mexico to pay for it was unrealistic and irresponsible, according to multiple people in attendance.
Not that I really expected her to, because I have a basic respect for Susana Martinez, and I’ve generally found that Trump’s support among politicians typically draws heavily from the ones that I don’t have a basic respect for. It’s downright uncanny. Almost frightening: I mean, if I was the sort to be paranoid I’d be maybe thinking that it was being done deliberately. Which, obviously, it’s not.
