That there wasn't a single mainstream Republican who stood up to Trump during his presidency.
I mean, come on. Who wrote this?
We're supposed to believe that EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN in government went from taking about how unfit Trump was when he was a candidate ... to standing behind him 100% even when he cozied up to Russia, paid hush money to a porn star, and lied about a Presidential election?
How does this fit the prompt? They specified before 1990.
Some voted for impeachment. Still, far more should have defended democracy, decency, and the rule of law.
