Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), urged the GOP in a Feb. 23 memo to end an escalating intra-party dispute and focus on defeating the Democrats in future elections.
“At the very same time these far-left radicals are trying to remake America in their image, and lead us into a disastrous, dystopian, socialist future, we have a parade of pundits and even Republican voices suggesting we should have a GOP civil war. NO,” Scott wrote in a memo being sent to elected officials, activists, donors, and voters.
