Republicans, Just Being Republicans

JIM JORDAN AND THE G.O.P. members of Congress are trying to stop the prosecution of Trump in New York by interfering in it, pledging to investigate the people investigating Trump, the usual sort of Republican perfidy. Harassing the prosecutor with death threats and attempts at intimidation is not a good idea, and, like much mainstream Republican activity, leads to valid lawsuits against them. Republican misbehavior attracts lawsuits like flies to bulldung, and if theres one thing Republicans know a lot about, its bulldung. Their constant dishing out of it, in words and deeds such as the great Trump election lie, have resulted in no fewer than one thousand criminal prosecutions and convictions for those involved in the treasonous Capitol insurretion, aka known by the Republican party officially as "legitimate political discoures, and among Republicans generally as "a guided tour gone bad". (Or maybe gone good, from their perspective.) Congress has no regulatory power over state criminal investigations, indictments, and prosecutions, but leave it to Jordan and his nefariously evil intended ilk to either not know that or to not care. There is no word sufficiently heinoous to describe the level of henious-ness to which conservative America has already sunk, and continues to sink. Avin Bragg obviously means business, as evidenced by his and his grand jury's indictment of Trump and now of Jim Jordan. I for one wouldn't wanna be either Trump or Congressman Jordan right about now, and I suspect that neither do they, although Jordan and his co-defendants in Congress, like Trump, will put up a phony act of victimization and defiance. The lengthening list if Republican moral abominations, like the long long list of Trump's crimes, only hardens and emboldens the deeply right wing Trump cultists, who only give their unqualified support and approval of his perfidy: Trump's big election lie, his attempted violent coup, and so on. Those who still support this are themselves criminals, as acconplices to and enablers of rime. Their cunnert attempt to thwart due process and justice in New York is nothing other than par for their massively corrupt course.
