Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.) is proposing two amendments to an appropriations bill that would defund the various prosecutions of former President Trump.

He is adding to the defense of the former president mounted by Trump allies in the House as they circle the wagons in the face of four indictments.

Clyde, a member of the House Appropriations Committee, on Monday announced plans for two amendments to the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies (CJS) fiscal 2024 appropriations bill that would “prohibit the use of federal funding for the prosecution of any major presidential candidate prior to the upcoming presidential election on November 5th, 2024,” according to a press release.

    It’s not insane at all.

    They know that without the cult they lack the numbers to win any election. They, and their positions, are so frail that they bend knee to the absolute worst humanity has to offer for a chance to feel like they aren’t as neutered as they really are. They can’t even just let the Trump boot-lickers fade away, those willful idiots will just not vote - they have to win the scared racist vote, they need the wheezing Nazis, they can’t survive without the religious who have turned away from their god for Trump.

    It’s fear, weakness and desperation. It is more sad than insane. Sad and dangerous.
