Why do Republicans think Democrat voters would defend a Democrat criminal?

If Clinton is guilty, send his ass to prison.

Because they would, pardon me, are defending a Republican criminal. Republicans justify all the horrible things they do by falsely claiming that the Democrats are doing them as if that would really justify it.

Biden isn't defending his own son, who was convicted of a crime that is almost never prosecuted after a Republican judge refused to accept a plea bargain.

When Al Franken was accused of accidentally grabbing breats while hugging women in photographs, the Democrats called for him to resign.

Democratic Rep Henry Cuellar was indicted in May for a money laundering and bribery scheme lined to a Mexican bank and Azerbaijan. Who came out to defend him?

Trump.

What's really admirable is President Biden has the power and the legal right to pardon his son from the federal felony gun charges and President Biden said he wouldn't do so.

Why do Republicans think Democrat voters would defend a Democrat criminal?

Because they’re actively defending a republican who was found guilty of 34 felonies.
