Some Republicans are going after the Fed’s in reaction to the coming Trump & Co. arrests connected to the classified files case….
Florida Republican Governor DeSantis running diastantly behind Trump for the 2024 Republican Presidential nomination and probably hoping Trump is convected and is out of the race attacks the cops NOT the guy who keeps collecting arrests and ain’t finished in that….
Few are doing anything else….
Trump has been successful in selling the ‘they’re picking on me’ even if he is stealing your pants in broad daylight….
Donald Trump continues to sell the ‘law does NOT apply to me’…..
DeSantis….
He’s only been a presidential candidate for two weeks, but Ron DeSantis is already finding himself defending his chief rival.
Several hours after news broke that former President Donald Trump was indicted over his handling of classified documents, DeSantis lambasted the Department of Justice.
“The weaponization of federal law enforcement represents a mortal threat to a free society. We have for years witnessed an uneven application of the law depending upon political affiliation. Why so zealous in pursuing Trump yet so passive about Hillary or Hunter?” DeSantis tweeted about two hours after the news. “The DeSantis administration will bring accountability to the DOJ, excise political bias and end weaponization once and for all.”….

The former New Jersey governor has made clear he will confront Trump directly in the primary battle, but his response to the indictment was fairly subdued Thursday.
“We don’t get our news from Trump’s Truth Social account. Let’s see what the facts are when any possible indictment is released,” Christie said in a Twitter post. “As I have said before, no one is above the law, no matter how much they wish they were. We will have more to say when the facts are revealed.”…

[Pence] The former vice president, who declared his candidacy this week, told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt on Friday morning that he was “deeply troubled” by the indictment, but said it would be important to see all the facts in the case.
“I’m deeply troubled to see this indictment move forward,” Pence said. “Yesterday on the road in Iowam I had said that I had hoped that the DOJ would see its way clear not to move forward here. But let me be very clear: No one is above the law.”….

Apparently these “ conservatives “ believe that storing classified documents relating to the defense of the nation in ballrooms,bathrooms,showers, offices and bedrooms is ok and showing them to anyone who comes around?Tsk,tsk.
For years I have been referring to “ conservatism “ as “ bunk.”
That’s way to nice a term.
It’s pure T…TRASH and these cowards are totally contemptible.
