What a joke. I noticed that Tom DeLay managed to write a letter to the judge recommending leniency while at the same time denouncing Trump. Yes. The GOP is that effed up.
You are looking at a case in point about exactly why the GOPe is effed up. Now that the democrat party has gone fascist, any blackmailable event will quash any opposition.
Mitch McConnell is a prime example. He has some questionable event when he was in the Army, about which there is no record. Could that be why he has behaved so passively?
