Trey Gowdy appeared with Martha MacCallum on her Fox News show Monday evening where he denounced the Democrats for their hypocritical outrage from the complaints of the FBI agent who was exposed for her anti-Trump texts.
Gowdy was referring to Lisa Page. who claims she was made a scapegoat over her texts to former FBI official Peter Strzok that were critical of President Donald Trump.
“The broader point is this. Keep in mind, Strzok and Page, and the Democrat and the DC media’s argument is, ‘yeah they were biased, yeah they said terrible things, but it had no impact on the outcome.’ In other words, Trump was treated fairly in the end,” said Gowdy.
“Now contrast that with what Trump’s gone through with impeachment,” he said.
“Now the Democrats are saying even though there were no investigations of the server or the Bidens, and even though the aid was released, they’re now hyper-focused on the process!” Gowdy continued.
“It’s the phone call! That’s all that matters!” he exclaimed.
“So to Democrats, all’s well that end’s well if it’s Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, but if you get the aid and there’s no investigation, that’s not enough, it still may be impeachable just because we didn’t like your process,” Gowdy said.
“That’s duplicity, it’s a double standard, and that’s why the American people, I think, are completely unmoved thus far by the impeachment hearings of Chairman [Rep. Adam] Schiff (D-Calif.),” he concluded.
A recent Politico-Morning Consult poll shows support for impeachment is on the decline and supports Gowdy’s claim.
