Here we go again, Asa Hutchinson, the former Republican Governor of Arkansas, seemed almost excited when he discovered that former President Trump had been convicted.

“It is not easy to see a former President and the presumptive GOP nominee convicted of felony crimes; but the jury verdict should be respected,” posted Hutchinson. ” An appeal is in order, but let’s not diminish the significance of this verdict.”

The former Governor who came alongside Democrat Governors with their radical policies a few years ago and attacked the base got wrecked online.

Anyone who supports this destruction of rule of law, as you do here, is to be condemned.

Wow. That’s pathetic.

And I don’t even like Trump. At all.

But I know a kangaroo court when I see it. Horrible take, Asa.

Respected? The fix was in from the beginning. Just look at the judge’s jury instructions, let alone all of his one-sided rollings throughout this trial.

Governor Larry Hogan, who’s running for Senate in Maryland seemed to have the same feeling as Hutchison: “Regardless of the result, I urge all Americans to respect the verdict and the legal process,” Hogan said. “At this dangerously divided moment in our history, all leaders—regardless of party—must not pour fuel on the fire with more toxic partisanship. We must reaffirm what has made this nation great: the rule of law.”
