‘Bootlicker brigade’: Former GOP congressman says Trump cult will only grow
Raw StoryWASHINGTON — In the wake of former President Donald Trump’s guilty verdict, America’s about to see GOP unity like never before. “That’s what's going to be so ‘fun’ to watch, is who comes out and belly crawls and actually subjugates himself the most to Donald Trump, and we'll see who those people are,” Riggleman said. “And it's about bootlicking Trump in order to stay in power or to have your own type of gravitas on whatever far-right avenue you've decided to drive in.” While Riggleman hasn’t served in Congress since 2021, he still monitors the House of Representatives. “When Jan. 6 happened, they said ‘of course it was Trump’s fault, but we can’t say that or we won’t get reelected,’” Riggleman recounted. “I really think that's the founding document for what's gonna happen in the future, and I think Trump is really the leader of the project 2025 movement,” Riggleman said.
