No one will admit they supported 'spiraling' Trump in 10 years: ex-GOP congressman

President Donald Trump lives in an ever-shrinking bubble, and as he loses his mental faculties and the country falls to pieces under his leadership, it's become increasingly obvious he'll have no mainstream defenders after this chapter closes.

That's according to former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL), who made the comments to MS NOW's Nicolle Wallace on Monday's edition of "Deadline: White House."

This came in the middle of a discussion about Trump's obsession with erecting monuments to himself in D.C., and how he has grown desperate to ensure he leaves something behind from his presidency.

"We're so happy to get to talk to you," said Wallace. "We've covered you for years. We covered every second, every minute, every development of the January 6th Select Committee. And I wonder if we could just start there. I mean, what is it like to have made the case to the country, but to have had the country take six years to see it the way you and Congressman [Jamie] Raskin and Former Congresswoman Liz Cheney and all the Democrats on the committee told the country Donald Trump was?"

"Yeah, I mean, it's, it's — you know, part of it is like, hey, we told you so, right?" said Kinzinger. "But then I also still am heartbroken at the number of people that are told every day by the same news organization that didn't cover the January 6th hearings — by the way, on purpose — that everything's fine, everything's great. Iran is won. And so there's people out there that still don't know."

"And I think the tough thing for me in the aftermath has not been anything except like, I just feel that — I feel bad for the people that are being misled down this path," said Kinzinger. "But I guarantee you something, and I know this: in 5 or 10 years, there won't be a single person left in this country that will ever admit to supporting Donald Trump, except for those that have their stuff all over Twitter, because I think the speed at which he's spiraling, I mean, we're a year and a half into him. The speed at which he's spiraling, I think, is just going to increase."

The endgame of that, he said, is that "eventually people are going to be like, yeah, we've had enough."
