They all knew he was guilty as charged. Who is the one that admitted as much, Alexander or something? But senator don't care. Senator is a Trump puppy at all costs.

But speaking up at the right time imho is not just about the result. It's a question of honor.

This brought Caligula to mind. He once declared his horse a god and ordered Roman senators to eat its horseapples. If they refused or spit it out, they were rejecting the substance of the god.
