State Republican parties close ranks behind Trump
In the wake of former President Donald Trump’s February 13 acquittal in his second impeachment trial, state Republican parties have reaffirmed their allegiance to the would-be dictator.
Emboldened by the Democrats’ feckless impeachment trial, which shielded Trump’s Republican co-conspirators in Congress as well as his abettors in the military, the police and on Wall Street, state Republican parties are advancing motions to punish those few Republican lawmakers who voted for Trump’s impeachment or Senate conviction.
