Has the GOP blown it on the Jan 6 committee?

[Sandy Shanks]

By inciting an insurrection against our government using radical far right groups loyal to him and causing the ransacking of the capitol, Trump is leading the Republican Party into the abyss.

On Tuesday, Trump expressed the hope that Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell are listening to him.

They are. On Tuesday, House Minority Leader McCarthy came out against the bipartisan Jan. 6 commission he okayed in February.

With a series of mischaracterizations, Senate Minority Leader McConnell came out against it.

The Democratically controlled House passed the measure with 35 Republicans voting for it, but, with McConnell's opposition, it faces tough sledding in the Senate where it will require 60 votes for it to pass.

Clearly, Republicans are putting themselves before the country and the Constitution as they want to hide an invasion of our capitol so they can win in 2022.

Clearly, McCarthy and McConnell are trying desperately to protect their asses. Here's why.

“The president bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding,” McCarthy said on January 13.

McConnell told us on Feb. 13 that the rioters had been "fed wild falsehoods by the most powerful man on Earth. Because he was angry he'd lost an election."

"Former President Trump's actions that preceded the riot were a disgraceful, disgraceful dereliction of duty," added McConnell. "Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day."

Now they ask, "how high?" when Trump tells them to jump.

Defeat of the commission in the Senate is Trump's want. Once again, we must ask, just how stupid is this man?

"I certainly could call for hearings in the House with a majority of members being Democrats, and full subpoena power, and the agenda being determined by Democrats -- but that’s not the path we have chosen to go," Speaker Pelosi asserted.

Which would be better for Trump and the Republican Party? A bipartisan commission, five members chosen by Democrats, five members chosen by McCarthy, subpoenas approved by all; or an investigation with full subpoena power with Democrats in charge?

Taking into account his own well-being, Trump didn't answer that question well. Apparently, he wants the Democrats to investigate, and that is likely to happen if McConnell and McCarthy have their way after listening to Trump.

Surprisingly, every member of Trump's flock adore him. That's a problem for the GOP. It explains why they are acting so foolishly.

I guess trump didnt pull out, and mac is still upset. Dont worry bro, you wont be having orange babies.

Thats all you have? Pathetic.

I know its pathetic. It is fascinating how bad trump broke him

Trump personally destroyed Mac1958 's mental state.....that's not even debatable.
I've watched him deteriorate, it's been quite sad actually.

I hope mac donates his brain to science. Could help with all kinds of mental illnesses.

 

[Mac1958]

We have a legal system to deal with violated laws. Stop wasting our fucking tax dollars with this asinine circus.

BENGHAZI!

Even so, two wrongs don't make a right.

But there is not even a comparison, Benghazi is not even in the same universe to attempted take over of US Congress to halt a certification of an election.

True. The Trumpsters have been trying desperately to downplay the significance of this attack since before the smoke had lifted at the Capitol building.

In Benghazi, we were attacked by terrorists. On Jan 6, the terrorists were Trumpsters.

Yep, it's sad, Mac used to be rational and then Donny came along and completely fried his brain.
.. of course, Donny did that to A LOT of Americans, for that alone we should banish Daffy Don to Venus or something similarly vengeful.

The former guy has again put the GQP in a lousy situation: They can't risk angering him by backing the Jan 6 Committee, and their cowardice may make things even worse for them.

At least with an even-numbered, bipartisan committee they could have controlled some of what took place and what was released. But if Pelosi puts together a select committee, and they find irrefutable evidence that harms the GQP, the Trumpsters will just have to bend over and take it.

Oh well. Another example of what happens when you choose to sell your soul to a weak man who cares nothing about you.

Embarrassed Republican Max Boot (now most likely a an evil Hitler commie in the eyes of the cult) makes good points here, including gung ho the GQP was with its Benghazi "investigations":

Mitch is unbelievable. He is against the investigation since there are others already investigating. Voter audits are another matter, you can't have too many of them.

Who else is performing a voter audit? If we investigate some Dim mayor for putting his hand in the till, does that mean we shouldn't investigate any other corrupt politicians?

Dim "logic," as usual

We already knew how craven these people were, with the way they sold their soul to that buffoon. But this has taken it to another level.

What you mean is that the Democrat Reich has been trying to pump it up into their version of the Reichstag fire. This "investigation" is just part of the scheme.

Only the gullible are fooled.

No one attempted to take over Congress, dumbass. Yes, Bhenghazi is not in the same universe as crimes you have invented.

Laugh out loud ^^^; Idiot-gram on steroids.

Yep, those fat old dudes dressed in Carhartt gear, armed with crutches and flags were terrorists / insurrectionists....they were definitely there to take over America.
Just listen to yourself once in a while...that's all I ask.

You voted for an obviously corrupt senile pedophile, and you accuse Republicans of selling their souls?

There were 3 audits in Maricopa county before the ever Ninja's got there.

 

[MisterBeale]

This is a perfect opportunity for our parties to compromise.

The DNC can have their Jan. 6th investigation. . . and the GOP can have their election integrity and Dominion source code investigation.

What the hell ever happened to compromise?

they will just claim it's a witch hunt with the Select Committee... And blindly regurgitate that, in their circle....which has been Trump's modus operandi with everything....

No mater how it's investigated, the trump people will scream hoax and witch hunt.

So we may as well do the proper investigation to learn the truth and find out how to prevent it from happening again.

That way we will at least know the truth and maybe get some legislation that will help prevent this from happening again.
