Chickenshit Republicans. The poor bastards are caught between a rock and hard place.
McGovern, in a statement, accused Republicans of making their own mess.
“Democrats on the Rules Committee gave Republicans a choice — either vote to release the Epstein Files, or keep them a secret. Republicans are so afraid of taking that vote that they are torching their own agenda instead of doing something they promised the voters they would do,” he said. “Trump and his top allies have been pushing this for years — and people aren’t going to forget about it in a month.”
