Snip

In a statement provided to Mediaite, Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN) said he is standing with Trump.

“This is more false news from a CNN political analyst, as I was one of President Trump’s top defenders during impeachment and strongly support his legal efforts to ensure that every legal vote is counted,” Braun said.

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) and Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) likewise professed allegiance to the president, in statements from their spokespeople given to the Washington Examiner.

1. This just confirms the public part. Then this will privately confirm the rest....

2. They are showing their true colors.

Yellow.

3. They are also showing their asses.

4. Brave Sir Mike

5. There's a reason Profiles in Courage was such a thin book

6. neither position is the least surprise

in the case of Grassley (and I suspect most of the others). He's the epitome of a Bob Dole Republican -- that has absolutely turned himself inside out to mollify the Tea Party (and now the orange cultism) that has become the Republican party. Much like Collins, he sometimes mouths words about principle and backbone -- but when pressed may be counted on in failing to produce one. Whither thou leadest ... There is brother Charles.

7. Only Romney has shown guts

when he voted for one article of impeachment, since he knew that Trump was guilty and then criticized Trump's actions after the election. 1 out of 53! How sad that the GOP is completely beholden to its base and not to America.

8. Strapping themselves firmly to the Titantic

9. If only

that would make them lose - Mike Braun is my senator (IN) and I cringe at just about everything he has done.
