Summary

In 1974, Republican congressional leadership walked to the White House to tell a Republican criminal president of the United States to resign or be impeached. Now, congressional House leadership walked to a courthouse in New York to support a criminal former president of the United States. The corruption, corrosion, and compromise of the Republican Party is complete, as it has figuratively declared itself the pro-crime party.
