Xochitl Hinojosa Blasts Part of the Democratic Party ‘Who Stood by Graham Platner,’ Then Pivots to Trump’s Sexual Misconduct Allegations

RUSH EXCERPT:

HINOJOSA: “Yeah. I mean, first of all, shame on the part of the Democratic Party who stood by him. I think that there was the Democratic Party was very much split in this race. There are some people that were speaking out against a Nazi tattoo. As I said it as well. There were a lot of other people. I think there were a lot of women. After the last allegations that weren‘t willing to go out and defend him, but there were a lot of men in the party. I will give I understand that gillibrand was one of them because she is the head of the sec. But like I, it shame on our party to do that. And now in. Our party has to recognize if you want to be the party of values, if you want to be the party of decency, of principle, then you do have to come out and call unequivocally for this man to resign. And that is happening now. I think that what this this is a larger problem with both parties, which is how far will you go to hold on to power? And when there are allegations of sexual assault, of rape, of any sexual misconduct, it is incumbent on both on leaders of both parties to speak out and say that person should not serve. Did I see it with Donald Trump? No, I still have not seen it. I don‘t think anyone. I don‘t think you have have said that he should not be our president or serve or that he shouldn‘t have been elected. But the leader of the Republican Party right now has 28 sexual misconduct allegations against him, and he pardoned people on January 6th. And his party still stands by him as like he is king. And so there is a bigger problem with our politics. If we are going to turn the other way, to hold on to power and blame the other party when something goes wrong, but not look at our own party today, I say, shame on our own party.”
