Once upon a time, Republicans had a deep distrust of Donald Trump.

When Donald Trump won the Electoral College and became the new president, Republicans controlled the House, Senate, and the White House.

When General Flynn was discovered on the phone with the Russians, and then lied about it, it was the Republicans that forced him out as the National Security Advisor.

When Trump fired James Comey, and the Republican leadership was so disturbed by Trump's connections with the Russians, it was the Republicans that chose to hire Robert Mueller as the Special Counsel. He was hired by Rod Rosenstein, who was appointed by Donald Trump, because AG Jeff Sessions had recused himself.

What happened to the Republicans since the early days of the Trump Administration? What happened to their once deep distrust of Donald Trump??

Now, they say that the Democrats have "hated" Donald Trump since his first day in office.

They lie to the American people when they pretend that they have loved Donald Trump since the day he came down the golden escalator.
