Democrats hammer ‘shameless’ Republicans for their ‘lawless cult’ defending ‘dangerous’ Donald Trump
.
Several Democratic members told Raw Story on Wednesday that they’re worried about the situation with the stolen government documents at Donald Trump’s country club in Palm Beach, Florida and the impact it will have on American national security and relationships with allies.
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) returned to the Capitol this week along with other lawmakers after the August Recess. Speaking to Raw Story he emphasized that one of the biggest contrasts between Democrats and Republicans who want to be in the House Majority is that the GOP wants to focus on defending Trump.
“We want to build on what we’ve done for people,” Swalwell said about Democrats. “They want to be in the majority to fight for Donald Trump and that’s the biggest contrast. They’ll spend their time in the majority as his criminal defense lawyers. It’ll be the largest law firm he has. The House [GOP] Majority.”
Senators returning to Washington had similar thoughts, telling Raw Story last week that they’re waiting on the next steps in the intelligence officials to do a briefing on the impact the documents have on national security.
A member of the House Intelligence Committee, Swalwell explained that it should be easy to understand that what Trump did was not acceptable for anyone, much less for a former president.
