Yes, they drank the Kool-Aid for Trump, but so what is it about Pistol Pete that the Republicans are ga-ga about? Have they checked in with their friends in the military to see how they feel about imperiled career leaders? Do they get off on the wanton war crimes being perpetrated in the Caribbean?

Giuliani, Eastman, Cheseboro, and Powell are all unindicted co-conspirators in Trump indictment for the election crimes. Smith kept them off to streamline the case, with it always seemed future plans to indict. A total whitewash. Possibility remains of state charges, esp in Georgia. What a travesty.
