Newsmax host Carl Higbie went on a tirade on Friday after former President Donald Trump was convicted by a Manhattan jury the day before.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee was found guilty 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 Republican freakout has been swift if not predictable. Despite their outrage and indignation, some conservatives insist that being a convicted felon will help Trump’s chances of returning to the White House in November’s election.

During Friday’s edition of Frontline on Newsmax, Higbie demanded congressional Republicans drop everything and go after those involved in Trump’s prosecution.

      And so what if Cletus has a hundred guns. He’s only got 2 hands and early onset diabetes. I like my chances.

        Good point, I could easily out maneuver a mobility scooter.

          Better watch out now, Rascal makes a turbo model that’ll get up into the high teens. Strap a couple AK’s to one of those and you have the next Tarantino movie.

            That’s a hilarious visual. A mounted gun where the basket should be

      I mean they may own five hundred guns each but i feel like only the first couple of them actually matter. The rest are just for masturbation purposes.

      It won’t help them against the government. They have all the working tanks.

        Honestly you wouldn’t even need that. Just turn off the internet for a few hours and they’d all just disappear.

          Ummm… That isn’t exactly a thing. If you did “turn off” the Internet, I’m not certain we would ever get it functional again.

      They think they own most of the guns because they’ve built a whole culture around it. What they don’t realize is there are plenty of non-Rs who own guns too as a hobby or protection, but their whole identity isn’t “I’m a gun owner” so they don’t go around hoopin’ and hollarin’ that they own guns.
