Ron Filipkowski on the 3 types of GOP reaction to the FBI search:

Ron Filipkowski 🇺🇦
@RonFilipkowski

Republican reactions falls into 3 categories at this point:

1. People who have no clue how the justice system/law operates.

2. People who know how it works but think Trump should be treated differently.

3. People who know how it works and aren’t saying much because they know.

*Everybody* agrees it was wrong and it has galvanized support for Trump among all but the deepest of pro-deep-state Americans.

The one I'm hearing least often...

Instead of being ashamed that the FBI had to execute a search warrant on him, he rushed to be the first to tell the world in order to further manipulate and scam more money from his already deluded supporters.

They are all cowards of the highest order. They are afraid of the killer clown, and his cultish minions.

Neither have many other GOP senators. However, the circus in the House sure has set up shop.

The people like Mc know the truth, but they are too damn crooked to do the right thing. If Trump falls hard, McConnell will claim that he was always against Trump. If Trump succeeds Mc will have always been his strongest supporter. Republicans have no concept of honor. They are not held to a standard of truth; in fact, the truth is the most dangerous thing that they have to stare down.

I don't use the term hate lightly, but I have gone from disagreeing with Republicans to hating them...all of them. There is no such thing as a good Republican any more.
