Whole lot of Witches being found, especially in the vicinity of Trump and the GOP.....

You are absolutely correct Shred that the Republicans have difficulty with the truth these days....

In Duncan Hunter's district of California, they knew before the Primary and having his name on the Ballot that he was being investigated and there were huge questions around him. To act surprised and shocked now is ridiculous.....

I just wonder how many more "Witches" are going to be turning up.....

He is playing the tRump game and saying it is a political witch hunt by fake news and Dems. Issue was eyeing his seat if Hunter wasn't able to stay for the midterms but it is too late for Issa to do that now, even if Hunter did pull out.

"Many Hunter allies believe he will stay in his House seat while fighting the charges.

Even if federal candidates choose to withdraw from contention, their names will remain on the ballot unless they seek removal of their names from a judge, according to the California Secretary of State's Office.

At this late juncture, there is no possibility of a write-in campaign. Only Hunter and Campa-Najjar will appear on the November ballot, since they were the top vote-getters in California's top-two primary in June."

Right now though he is playing it like the fake prez and hoping those who elected him will buy his BS which is a real possibility in his (morons and cult members like to band together)
