George Conway Criticizes Trump's Lies And Legal Tactics

Former U.S. President Trump hosts a campaign rally, in Rome, Georgia

Conservative lawyer and vocal Trump critic George Conway recently shed light on the concerning trend of Republican lawmakers parroting baseless claims made by former President Donald Trump regarding the alleged weaponization of the U.S. judicial system against him.

Conway expressed his dismay at the Republican Party's current state, stating that many members are vying for favor within the party despite Trump's tarnished reputation as a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist. He emphasized that the party's alignment with Trump's falsehoods and protection of his actions only serve to bring disgrace to the GOP.

Addressing the specific case of Michael Cohen, Conway highlighted that Cohen was charged by the United States Department of Justice in 2018 for campaign violations related to the Stormy Daniels episode. He emphasized the absurdity of absolving Trump of any wrongdoing when his own Justice Department had brought charges against Cohen.

Conway dismissed claims of the Biden administration weaponizing the Justice Department, pointing out ongoing prosecutions of individuals close to Biden, including a Democratic senator and Biden's own son. He stressed that these legal actions represent justice being served rather than political manipulation.

Regarding Trump's recent conviction on 34 felonies, Conway emphasized that the verdict was a result of Trump's actions and the evidence presented in court. He refuted Trump's claims of a rigged trial, stating that Trump had the opportunity to present witnesses and testify but chose not to out of fear of being exposed as a liar.

In response to Trump's allegations of unfair treatment during the trial, Conway asserted that Trump's statements were false and that his refusal to testify was a strategic decision to avoid cross-examination that would have revealed the truth.

Conway's insights provide a critical perspective on the ongoing political and legal challenges surrounding Trump and the Republican Party, highlighting the importance of upholding the principles of justice and accountability.
