Xochitl Hinojosa Blasts Part of the Democratic Party ‘Who Stood by Graham Platner,’ Then Pivots to Trump’s Sexual Misconduct Allegations
EXCERPT:
HINOJOSA: “I think that what this — this is a larger problem with both parties, which is how far will you go to hold onto 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 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 he — 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 onto power and blame the other party when something goes wrong, but not look at our own party. And dare I say, shame on our own party.”
