“GOP senators really have no desire to talk about Trump on tape discussing with Michael Cohen a scheme to silence a story about his alleged affair with a Playboy model. WATCH,” He wrote on Twitter above this video:

The duck and dodge, also known in this case as the “flounder and snicker,” is a political art form most recently perfected by the Republican Party, in which the person needs to avoid appearing to take a stand against a man who was caught on tape trying to buy off a story about an alleged affair he had with a Playboy model. After he was caught on tape bragging about grabbing women by their “p*ssy.”

This same Republican President is also under investigation for possibly colluding – but definitely did take help from – a hostile foreign government in an act of war against this country.

But Republicans really aren’t ready to take a stand against him yet.

Duck and dodge. The party of family values, in action.
