All the same people who opposed him in the first place. All more interested in keeping the DC gravy train going than saving the Republic.

Opening lines from Thomas Paine’s pamphlet, “The Crisis” -

THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated.

“...All the same people who opposed him in the first place...”

Exactly. Hmmmmm ... maybe they were the ones behind the whole thing? It is a perfectly logical theory...

It smells of dirty RINO tricks.
