Tim Miller: Republicans Are ‘Scared to Death of the Orange Former Guy Getting Mad at Them’

EXCERPT:

MILLER: “They all know deep down that the actions of the individuals that stormed the Capitol is wrong. They don’t want to be the ones who are wearing pro-insurrectionism as a badge of honor. So they’re participating in this game on the one hand. On the other hand, they’re all scared to death of the orange former guy getting mad at them. Who — just let’s working this out for a second. Who wants to be the first person in the Trump administration that says yes, I’m going to testify? That person would have to be very confident that A, they are in the right, and B, they could run circles around Adam Schiff and Liz Cheney and all of them. And I don’t think any of them are that confident that they could do that. And so, they are all deeply afraid of being the first mover. Getting angry calls from, you know, the lounge at Bedminster and being on the bad side of conservative media.”
