Its become clear that Republican really just don’t care anymore, can’t wait till the next liberal President so we can go back to complaining about spicy mustard.
I think there are a few Republican senators who will say yeah it was bad- but doesnt rise to the level of impeachment. Most of them will say “nothing happened” which is just embarrassing. But I don’t think any of them will be ballsy enough to use the Mulvaney Defense. Yeah he did it and it was fine get over it! But that would be the most honest response.
It is a direct commentary on the last sentence of the quote. The only difference is that we have Biden on video bragging about it and as irony would have it also involved in a questionable COI that Graham said WILL be investigated after the tattered articles against Trump are put out of their misery.
