But it goes against the GOP pledge to support the eventual nominee no matter what. If a candidate does not agree to that pledge they are not supposed to be allowed to appear at the upcoming GOP debate. That's the real significance.

I hope Walt squeals like a pig. Take Cohen's advice, Walt. He will throw you under the bus bc he can. You are not a valued person. Only as long as you are useful to him.

Imagine an adult whose only retort is “I’m rubber and you’re glue.” And these GOP dumb clucks seem to believe every single story.

Trump support in the conservative camp is at a cross-roads here.
Much will depend on Fox News and how the pundits and guests spin this. All the people in the conservative elite are looking at each other an trying to figure out whether and how to distance themselves from Trump. MOST conservative leaders hate Trump, because he's not actually effective or competent, and he's way too much of a loose cannon. Plus he's extremely disagreeable to work with, as he demands humiliating and frequent displays of loyalty.
Before the indictment was unsealed, there were a few hours of circling wagons, apart from Asa Hutchinson and a few Never Trumpers. It's the reflex knee-jerk brainwashed reaction. But now, given the gravity and credibility of the charges, Barr et all all concede that if true, this indictment is absolutely outrageous behavior from the former President and he should not be able to hold office again. Several Republican guests on various TV channels, including Fox, have criticized Trump accordingly, because this case is not like previous cases - conservative leaders worth their salt take national defense seriously.
It remains to be seen how the GOP leaders wiggle themselves out of their self-inflicted wagon-hitch to Trump.
This summer is going to be ***iNteRestIng***. There will be the Georgia indictment in August. Trump will appear in the news regularly, associated with all sorts of serious law-breaking. Fox News and the GOP might finally make a serious effort to sideline the former guy.
This is similar to what has happened after many of his other outrageous actions. After both the Access Hollywood tape and the insurrection, you saw a few republicans condemning him but within a few days they were walking it back because they realized the base was lapping up his lies. Same thing will happen here. They are all cowards and won't dare tell the base that they've been conned.
Completely agree, PP. Remember the outcry by Republicans on the floor of the Senate the night of Jan. 6? Graham, McConnell, etc were outrgaged. AND that lasted a hot second before they were team Trump "that wasn't an insurrection, no one got hurt" in a matter of days. If Jan 6 didn't get people to see Trump for who/what he really is, this won't either.
We need (at least) two functional political parties in this country. Right now we have one functional political party which is doing its collective best to keep the country together and moving forward. And then we have the GOP that shows its butt every few weeks. Someone needs to drive the stake through the collective GOP’s heart so that something, perhaps another functional political party, can arise from its ashes. So far it’s a lot of making excuses for treason and oppositional defiant disorder policy.
