Well, it seems Matt asked Trump for a blanket pardon, since a pardon is an admission of guilt, guess who might be a witness at his trial! This little bonus keeps getting better, imagine the heat that psycho buddy of his is under, he's been in jail for weeks, getting a preview of his future life, until they take him out in a body bag. This guy will roll over no problem at all, he will have to do ten years mandatory minimum for the underage sex crimes though, no way out of that one.
Matt made a lot of enemies and some of them are gonna make the call on his future, the republicans, with a couple of exceptions are running for cover. It's so bad even Trump wouldn't pardon him, is keeping his distance and hasn't said a peep about it. Matt is still on the judiciary committee and he's only been in congress for two terms, but he was a showman and that's all the republicans care about these days, all smoke and no sizzle. Their steadily shrinking base are willing to believe the most transparent of lies, as long as it props up their delusions. Trump can even rip them off en masse by cleaning out their bank accounts. At one point Trump's scam accounted for 3% of all credit card fraud FFS, they weren't too bright to begin with, but fear, hate and racism have robbed them of whatever brains they might have possessed. The republican party these days is mostly composed of two types of people, conmen and their marks.
