The Spin


Republican narrative

It’s not surprising that the witch hunt against Trump and his former aides led to prosecution from the weaponized Dept. of Justice and a conviction from a politically motivated jury. This case should be appealed — to the Supreme Court if necessary — so that this injustice against Navarro can be reversed.

Democratic narrative

For a party that preaches the importance of "law and order," these actions by the GOP are deeply hypocritical. If this was part of a witch hunt, Navarro could have just cooperated with the House subpoena and proved his evidence rather than acting as though it was an optional request.
