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.

    This is exactly what gun makers want.

    This is not the solution.

    Plus in the end, it’s not about the quantity, but how you use them.

    And we’re not alone in this. There’s the National Guard too.

    Don’t fall for the fear mongering.

    Their “best” chance at doing anything of consequence was January 6 (in quotes because we know how that played out.) What makes you think this time around will be different?

      Nothing wrong with a contingency plan. Even if it does benefit gun manufacturers. And the National Guard has killed a lot of union organizers and student protestors so it’s not a given they’ll protect you.
