Most of the 18 House Republicans who represent districts that voted for President Biden don’t want to talk about the elephant in the room: Donald Trump, the former president and front-runner for the 2024 GOP nomination, and his federal indictment.
Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., issued a general statement about the need for justice to play out without weighing in on the allegations and noted that Biden also faces a special counsel probe about his handling of classified material.
A GOP strategist working on 2024 House races said it’s too soon to gauge the political impact of the indictment. “Right now,” the strategist said, Republicans in pro-Biden districts are “handling as they should — most aren’t saying much” — while those speaking out “are focused on the weaponization” argument.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said the GOP’s embrace of Trump post-indictment proves it’s no longer the party of supporting law enforcement.
