David Rohde: Nominees Are ‘So Fearful of the President’ They Won’t Acknowledge the Election Result

RUSH EXCERPT:

ROHDE: “It was honestly energizing and a sign that our democracy can be healthy and is healthy in that a congressional hearing actually mattered. Those questions were very sharp. He clayton chose to answer it that way. And it was the question is, you’re going to be the director of national intelligence. Essentially, they’re asking, will you defend our constitution? Will you defend our democracy? And the fact that he wouldn’t answer the question, and again, that framing just viewers probably know this. All these nominees who come up are so fearful of the president that they will only say Joe Biden was certified as the winner of the election. They will not say the words, Joe Biden got the most votes, and he did. And that is fact. And I agree with what Joe said. This is like this epic, critical moment for the country. Jay Clayton failed. Jon Ossoff just ate him alive."
