Lawlessness or “Legitimate Political Discourse”? What Side Will Carlos Giménez and María Elvira Salazar Take?

The Republican National Committee has declared January 6th “legitimate political discourse.”

It’s simple: Do María Elvira Salazar and Trump-endorsed Carlos Giménez agree a violent insurrection at the Capitol was legitimate political discourse or do they stand with law enforcement as they continue to investigate and prosecute those who took part?

DCCC Spokesperson Abel Iraola 

“Carlos Giménez and María Elvira Salazar disgracefully continue to stand back and watch as the Republican Party erodes our democracy. At this critical point, Gimenez and Salazar must answer if they agree with their party that a lawless violent insurrection to overturn the election was ‘legitimate political discourse.’”
