Out of fear or fealty to Donald Trump, the Republican minority just prevented the American people from getting the full truth about January 6th. This vote has made it official. Donald Trump`s big lie has now fully enveloped the Republican Party. Trump`s big lie is now the defining principle of what was once the party of Lincoln. Shame on the Republican Party for trying to sweep the horrors of that day under the rug because they`re afraid of Donald Trump.
