Here’s what Congressman Cline had to say on X about the criminal conviction of Donald Trump in New York on Thursday.
Reminder to Cline:
“The radical left” did not convict Trump.
The prosecutor did not convict Trump.
The judge did not convict Trump.
The “mainstream news media” did not convict Trump.
A jury of seven men and five women who spent weeks hearing and viewing evidence and arguments from both the prosecution and the defense unanimously convicted Trump.
Ultimately what Trump himself did to illegally falsify documents in an effort to hide damaging information before the 2016 election is what convicted Trump.
Cline’s cringing and cringeworthy statement in support of the convicted felon was entirely predictable.
But it’s ironic considering how Trump disrespected Cline, who endorsed the former president in January.
In February Cline endorsed Virginia’s 5th District Congressman and his fellow Freedom Caucus member Bob Good for reelection. Good is facing a tough primary election against State Senator John McGuire.
If Trump knew about this, it clearly made no difference. He recently backed McGuire over Good.
So now Cline is in the position of supporting for President a convicted felon who called Cline’s pal Good “BAD FOR VIRGINIA, AND BAD FOR THE USA.”
Rather humiliating, isn’t it?
