If the ex President is found guilty, are not the house members guilty of aiding and abetting?

[faceoff]

*Congratulations people of the United States of America! Congratulations to the rule of law. Nobody should be above the law.*

Sad day when the speaker of the house, goes against the rule of law. Shame!

"I say this to my Republican will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain."~Liz Cheney~

Didn't Trump signed the law that gives you a minimum 5 yr sentence for mishandling classified documents?

[alexwells]

It's not a dark day because yesterday was an extraordinary day for the American People and the United States of America

[elyktronic]

They're all willing to die on that them.

The GOP has to defend trump because so many are COMPLICIT IN TRUMPS CRIMES

[mikeryan]

As the pages on this criminal unfold, the crimes of the co-conspirators will also be exposed, and they know it.

If we vote for Donald Trump he will destroy the Republican Party and we will deserve it- Lindsay Graham 2016.

[rebeccanorris]

I believe in the rule of law, and I say hold Trump accountable for his crimes against America.

[gajeel]

How many times must 1 man continuously break the law for him to FINALLY get arrested? If any of us did ⅛ of the things he has done, we'd easily be in prison for no less than 20yrs.

[dougsimmons]

For someone who never does anything wrong, he sure is in a lot of trouble !!!

[mikeoxbig]

Ladies and gentlemen, the party of law & order 😆

[surlyguvna]

A perfect example of Rules for thee, but none for me.

[sylvesterajah]

It does NOT matter whether he is leading in the poll but he is a criminal he must face the legal consequences .

[frankieclayton]

If someone breaks the law completely is a crime

[mikeoxbig]

GQP: We crashed and burned defending clown 45 in 2020 so let’s do it again 😆

[gvtenant]

Hope none of these GOPs will be re-elected, EVER.

[RCTFORME]

Every time I think Republican shamelessness can't get any greater, I keep getting proven wrong.
