Maybe it was just old fashioned greed? A millionaire hoping to get more millions with tRump in office and the Repubs in Congress.

John O. Brennan @JohnBrennan

It is typical for you to mischaracterize my comment. Your lawless attitude & simple-minded approach to serious national security matters demonstrate that you are unworthy to represent the good people of Texas.

Ted Cruz @tedcruz

It’s bizarre to see a former head of the CIA consistently side with Iranian zealots who chant “Death to America.”

And reflexively condemn Israel.

Does Joe Biden agree?

‘I’m Sick Of It’: GOP Rep. Denver Riggleman Unloads On Republican Colleagues, Trump

https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrews...lleagues-trump

Quote:
Rep. Denver Riggleman (R-Va.) pulled no punches against President Trump and his fellow Republicans in Congress in an interview with Forbes, accusing them of a “massive grift” in refusing to acknowledge the results of the election and claiming Trump appeals to groups that are “anti-Semitic” and “anti-American.”

Riggleman, one of just 10 GOP House members acknowledging Joe Biden’s victory, said the Republican refusal to acknowledge the result is “just money-making for the 2024 election” and “completely unethical,” saying he’s spoken to 30 or 40 GOP members of Congress who privately acknowledge the result despite public silence.

“They’re worried about committee assignments, they’re worried about the team,” Riggleman said of Republicans who have stayed loyal to Trump, noting that breaking with Trump can “cost them their careers,” and that “the career is more important than the facts, it’s that simple.”
Yup.

Rep. Paul Mitchell @RepPaulMitchell

Oh my God. .@realDonaldTrump Please for the sake of our Nation please drop these arguments without evidence or factual basis. #stopthestupid

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

We have some big things happening in our various litigations on the Election Hoax. Everybody knows it was Rigged. They know Biden didn’t get more votes from the Black community than Obama, & certainly didn’t get 80,000,000 votes. Look what happened in Detroit, Philadelphia, plus!

This claim about election fraud is disputed

A Repube Rep who dares speak the truth...

"For the sake of out nation..." Good luck appealing to that with tRump. You'd sooner get blood out of a rock.

Adam Kinzinger @RepKinzinger

I will vote to override. Because it’s really not about you

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

.....Therefore, if the very dangerous & unfair Section 230 is not completely terminated as part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), I will be forced to unequivocally VETO the Bill when sent to the very beautiful Resolute desk. Take back America NOW. Thank you!

Republicans are standing up to Trump. Unfortunately, it's too little, too late
Republicans like Gabriel Sterling – who are horrified by the torrent of death threats facing electoral workers – are voicing their outrage very late in the day

Here was a Republican, a self-described conservative, telling off the president and all the people making those threats.
Response from tRump?
