During a floor speech May 15, Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, repeatedly referred to the “sham trial against the former president in New York,

Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass started going through Trump’s legal situation.
"He's also charged with conspiring to overturn the election,” he said of Trump. “He’s also charged with stealing classified information, and a jury has already found him liable for rape and in a civil court. And yet, in this Republican-controlled House, it’s OK to talk about the trial, but you have to call it a 'sham.'”

At that point, Rep. Erin Houchin, R-Ind., interjected, asking that McGovern’s “words be taken down.”

Rep. Jerry Carl, R-Ala., who was in the chair pointed to rules that prohibit members from using "personally offensive" language about the president.

"The accusation that the president has committed a crime or even that the president has done something illegal is not in order," Carl said.

Totally not a cult.

 
Compelled speech on anything is absurd, regardless of the topic or where one falls on it.
 
Rep. Jerry Carl, R-Ala., Who is the President?
It's stunning that this is still a very open question for MAGA. Here are some actual responses that I have seen from MAGA zombies in interviews from admittedly liberal political commentators.

* Trump is, in effect, still the president, as he secretly controls the military. But somehow he wasn't responsible for the withdrawal from Afghanistan.

* The Joe Biden that we see is actually a body double, as the real Biden died several years ago.

* Joe Biden is technically president because he stole the election. He is a doddering, senile old man who can't form a coherent thought or sentence, but he is also an evil genius who has coordinated with prosecutors and judges across the country to persecute Trump for political reasons.

It is not at all shocking that MAGA can't even agree on which conspiracy theory they believe.
