The Senate’s findings on the last days of Trump’s presidency are grim. Will it matter?

Don't expect the report to change minds: for Republicans, fealty to Trump is the acid test

Last week, the Senate's judiciary committee released its staff report on Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election and bend the justice department to his will. Subverting Justice: How the Former President and his Allies Pressured DOJ to Overturn the 2020 Election lays out in grim detail the ex-reality show host's concerted effort to weaponize the government's legal machinery in his desperate bid to cling to power.

One conclusion reads: President Trump repeatedly asked DOJ leadership to endorse his false claims that the election was stolen and to assist his efforts to overturn the election results." Another informs us that Trump allies with links to the Stop the Steal' movement and the January 6 insurrection participated in the pressure campaign against DOJ."
