Ex-Bush Aide Gives Chilling Reality Check About Continued GOP Capitulation To Trump
HuffPost
Peter Wehner pointed out where "things really get dangerous" with Republican repetition of the ex-president's election lies.
Peter Wehner warns of more U.S. Capitol riot-style political violence should the GOP continue regurgitating ex-President Donald Trump’s 2020 election lies. Wehner wrote in The Atlantic this week that “political violence will become more acceptable and more prevalent on the American right” if the Republican Party “doesn’t counteract these lies rather than indulge them.” The GOP remains “fully in Trump’s thrall, with its leadership more committed than ever to spreading his foundational lies and conspiracy theories,” said Wehner, who served in the administrations of Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush and was a fervent critic of Trump throughout his one term in office.More Related News
