Newsmax hostĀ Carl HigbieĀ went on a tirade on Friday after former PresidentĀ Donald TrumpĀ was convicted by a Manhattan jury the day before.
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee was foundĀ guiltyĀ on all 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to cover up extramarital affairs. Trump was concerned the affairs would come to light and harm his presidential aspirations. The RepublicanĀ freakoutĀ has been swift if not predictable. Despite their outrage and indignation, some conservatives insist that being a convicted felon willĀ help Trumpās chancesĀ of returning to the White House in Novemberās election.
During Fridayās edition ofĀ FrontlineĀ on Newsmax, Higbie demanded congressional Republicans drop everything and go after those involved in Trumpās prosecution.
Yeah, itās funny because theyāre all scared to go to cities because of the crime stories they see on winger media like newsmax, but then they also turn around and say things like this.
They live in an alternative reality in which the crime rate has been rising since the 70ās.
