    Republicans are so impressed by the cartoonish nature of his crimes; dude accepted literal gold bars. Clearly they see him as one of their own.

      Won’t happen. But Republicans do know it’s free political capital to support him. Especially with Trump mired it legal trouble. It’s not like NJ is going to elect a Republican anytime soon, and Phil Murphy is never going to appoint a Republican to replace him.

        Yeah, heard that about Sinema, too.

        EDIT: Evidently still hearing it.

          Sinema didn’t switch parties. Switching parties would require joining the Republican party for it to matter in the Senate. Sinema switched to independent (no party) and is still caucusing with the Democratic party.

            She’s literally telling prospective donors that, should she run for re-election, she’d appeal to Republican voters more than Dem ones.

            She’s a Republican in all but name and, with how much of a corrupt hypocrite she is, she’ll fit right in once she makes it official.

        New Jersey has 12 members in the House of Representatives, and three of them are Republicans.

          Yes, but a Senate seat requires more than the support of 25% of the population.

    Republicans: AHA! You keep accusing us of corruption but look at your guy here!

    Democrats: oh shit, you’re actually right. Lock him up!

    Republicans: wait no

    How unlikely is it really that members of a massively corrupt party is supporting a corrupt senator? Even though they’re ‘enemies’, they’re still on the same side of milking whatever grift they can while in office.

    Tom Cotton, Marco Rubio and JD Vance being on your side is a REALLY bad look! I’m not saying guilt by association is a legitimate thing but…
