They were saying the GOP is fearful. Fearful of the GOP base and losing their power. Also, fearful of the moron attacking them, starting with nicknames. None of them said what they are probably more fearful of and that is being connected to Russia, corruption with Russian money in the RNC, PACs, etc. Broidy and Cohen are not choirboys and they handled the RNC finances. We know they are compromised and complicit but the media doesn't ever go there.
