Seriously people? Have we gotten our black suits with the silver lightning strikes yet?
This is more insane and more disturbing and uglier by the day, by the hour.
It’s bad enough that the 2016 election was ratf*cked by Russia, the GOP, Bannon/Mercer/Cambridge Analytica.
It’s bad enough that the “president” is You Know Who.
It’s bad enough that the “president” is a crook who got caught red-handed and impeached.
It’s bad enough that only ONE GOP Senator had the honesty, integrity and morality to call the truth the truth and find him guilty.
Now, he’s all but being threatened with physical harm by his fellow Republicans.
From Washington Post,
On Sunday, one influential conservative went so far as to say he could not be sure of Romney’s safety at a major right-wing gathering, alarming some of the Utah senator’s defenders and — in some critics’ eyes — crossing a line from outrage to threat.
Matt Schlapp, chairman of the Conservative Political Action Conference, made the controversial comments Sunday as he explained why Romney would be excluded from this year’s four-day event. Schlapp announced last month via tweet that the senator was “formally NOT invited,” as Romney took heat for breaking from staunch Republican support of the president to call for witnesses in Trump’s impeachment trial.
Joe Manchin (D) WVa spoke out in defense of his fellow Senator.
“It’s hard to believe that we have stooped this low,” Romney’s Senate colleague Joe Manchin III (D-W.Va.) said on CNN, after calling the Utah politician as “honorable” a person as he had ever met. Manchin, a political moderate, has also been a target of Trump’s ire and name-calling (“Joe Munchkin”) after defying significant pressure to vote for acquitting the president last week.
Let’s take a second and show respect to Senator Manchin.
I think this is stunning and terrifying. They are showing their true colors and they are NOT red, white and blue.
