Opinion: Republican extremists defending Trump could complicate their party’s chances

CNN  

Editor’s Note: Douglas Heye is the ex-deputy chief of staff to former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, a GOP strategist and a CNN political commentator. CNN — Once again, breaking news about former President Donald Trump has caused political shockwaves, sending speculation into overdrive on “what it all means” for Trump, the GOP and the November elections. “The GOP majority must defund all forms of tyranny throughout Biden’s government,” tweeted Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado, tagging the FBI’s Twitter handle. She did this shortly after tweeting an image of an upside-down American flag which, according the US Flag Code, should only occur as “a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.” Many of my Republican brethren will point out that these three Republican members are on the extreme of the party and that there is a difference between their rhetoric and, say, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy calling for an investigation into a raid that will surely be investigated simply given its unprecedented nature. There’s a reason why the Democratic members of “The Squad” are household names and, say, the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense chair is not.. Or, that the three Republicans mentioned above bask in unending coverage, but you’ve not seen a cable news segment on Rep. Gus Bilirakis, a Florida Republican who has served since 2007.
