"It says something about just how bankrupt the Republican Party has become under Donald Trump, that none of them said a peep. The only thing they care about is their own elections."
"The President's threat that a whole civilization will die tonight cannot be excused away as an attempt to gain leverage in negotiations with Iran."
"They have to understand and be more afraid of their constituents than they are of Donald Trump. You would think when it came to the president threatening to commit genocide that they would wake up and at least say, 'This is outrageous.'"
Sen. Chris Van Hollen condemned Republican colleagues for not responding to President Trump's threatening social media post regarding Iran. Trump stated that a whole civilization would die, which Van Hollen deemed unacceptable. He emphasized that the GOP's lack of reaction reflects their priorities, focusing more on elections than on serious threats of war crimes. Only one Republican senator publicly opposed Trump’s statement. Van Hollen urged that Republicans should prioritize their constituents' concerns over their allegiance to Trump.
