Trump defender at impeachment debate says Jesus got a better deal in his trial by realchriswilson
Forget the Salem witch trials. As the House debated articles of impeachment Wednesday, the president’s defenders reached all the way back to the biblical times, and across the globe to Pearl Harbor, for metaphors to describe what they said was happening to President Trump.“Before you take this historic vote today, one week before Christmas, I want you to keep this in mind: When Jesus was falsely accused of treason, Pontius Pilate gave Jesus the opportunity to face his accusers.
Trump has refused to cooperate with the impeachment inquiry in any way, declining to supply requested documents and instructing his top aides not to testify. “I have descended into the belly of the beast,” Higgins said. “I have witnessed the terror within and I raise committed to oppose the insidious forces, but this unjust and weaponized impeachment brought upon us by the same socialist who threatened unborn life in the womb, who threatened Second Amendment protections of every American patriot and who have long ago determined that they would organize and conspire to overthrow President Trump.
Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., likened Trump’s impeachment to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, which resulted in over 2,400 deaths.
