EXCERPT:
BASH: "It’s almost painful to watch the contortions that Republicans like John Barrasso put themselves in to avoid answering the questions. Especially when you juxtapose what he won’t say with what the at-large House member, Liz Cheney, Republican, Wyoming, will say, and then some and then some and then some, which is, 'We have to condemn this in order to move forward as a country, but as a Republican Party.' And, you know, he is a member of — John Barrasso is a member of Republican leadership. He clearly doesn’t want to talk about these things. But until and unless they condemn comments like the former president has made, it’s very hard for them to then move on to the issues, the real policy issues that they want to talk about and the real differences that they have with the current president."
