As President Trump is exploding with anger over the impeachment investigation and that the whistleblower complaint, most of his fellow Republicans remain conspicuously silent about the Ukraine scandal.
GOP sources tell CNN they have a good reason for that: fear.
They have no idea what else House Democrats investigating will uncover.
Along with the GOP fear, there is frustration over the President’s ramblings, outbursts and barrage of tweets.
In fact, a source involved in Senate GOP discussions tell CNN: “He is taking it upon himself to tweet about every shiny object. That is not helpful right now.”
Plus repeated, brazen threats from the President did compel Iowa Republican Chuck Grassley, a longtime supporter of whistleblowers, to release a statement warning: “No one should be making judgments or pronouncements without hearing from the whistleblower first and carefully following up on the facts.”
Also noteworthy: Senator Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who rarely grants interviews.
This week he did, declaring if the House impeaches the President, the Senate will have no choice but to start a trial.
