Congressman Gerry Connolly (D-VA) released the following statement:
“For months, House Republicans have trafficked in lies and innuendo in a sorry attempt to smear President Biden and hurt Democrats politically. Unfortunately for them, this tired playbook hasn’t stuck, and it’s no secret why.
Donald Trump, the former President of the United States and the current leader of the Republican Party, oversaw a vast criminal enterprise that landed the CFO of the Trump Organization behind bars. He brought that criminal mindset with him to the White House, acting with such callous disregard for laws and norms that he became the only President to be impeached twice. He has been indicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records and, just yesterday, a jury found him liable of sexual abuse and defamation.
This is the man House Republicans have decided to hitch their wagon to. Their political futures are completely intertwined. Instead of saving themselves by jumping overboard, they are latching on to a sinking ship – concocting one conspiracy theory after another to deflect and distract from Donald Trump’s extensive criminal record.
The American people won’t be fooled.”
