I try to skip expletives, but when I get real mad ...
The GOPs stunning response to Trump pardoning those who assaulted police
When the idea of pardons for Jan. 6 defendants first circulated, the pushback from Republican senators was pretty swift. And even the few who entertained the idea drew a line at pardoning the violent ones.
I think there is a stark difference between acts of violence and peaceful protest, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said, calling acts of violence qualitatively different and unacceptable from any political perspective.
To seek a pardon of these people would be wrong, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) told Fox News. I think it would destroy President Trump, and I hope we dont go down that road.

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (Alabama) said that he was 100 percent for all of the pardons and that the defendants had served enough time. When pressed on those who assaulted police, Tuberville said that was not acceptable but that he didnt see the video.
