On Fox News, Rep. Jim Jordan expressed his outrage against twice-impeached defendant Trump's indictment in Manhattan, but what really got his goat was Judge Merchan warning Trump to stop with his violent rhetoric against people connected to the case.
There is no Republican better at grievance politics than Gym, as he ranted about all things "deep state DOJ."
"This is about intimidation," Jordan complained. This is about chilling everyone's speech, making everyone stay in line."
"Even the judge yesterday said, hey, Mr. Trump, President Trump, be careful what you say," Jordan squawked. "I think that's a message to all us regular folks across the heartland."
He added, "And to me, that's the most alarming thing of all."
The most troubling aspect of yesterday's arraignment for Jordan was the judge warning Trump to stop inciting violence?
Why aren't Republicans frustrated with Trump's immoral and allegedly illegal actions?
It was the judge's right to issue a gag order if he deemed it necessary, but he refused to do so and instead instructed Trump and his attorneys to act in a proper fashion.
Tweeting a picture of the defendant holding a baseball bat behind Alvin Bragg's head is not normal in a criminal proceeding.
It only took six hours for the entire Trump Klan to attack Judge Merchan's daughter.
How would Jim Jordan like to see one of his four children being singled out and attacked by a Democratic presidential candidate?
