U.S. media outlet Breitbart News reported Sunday that House Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday on MSNBC’s “Weekend” that the United States has “a functional party and a personality cult around Trump,” referring to the Democratic and Republican parties, respectively. The cult of personality” refers to the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, respectively.
In response to a video of House Minority Whip Steve Scalise being asked if he recognized Biden as the “legitimate president of the United States,” Schiff said, “Scalise is the No. 2 Republican in the House, and it’s hard for him to say that Biden was elected in a free and fair election because he doesn’t want to antagonize Trump and Trump voters, even though Trump instigated the storming of the Capitol. Capitol, the Republican leadership is still under Trump’s control.”
Schiff went on to say, “Scalise, like McCarthy, has made a pilgrimage to Haywood Lodge to pledge his allegiance to Trump. They have tied their wagons to Trump. This is a terrible thing for the Republican Party and a tragedy for the country. We need two functional parties, and right now, we only have a functional party and a cult of personality around Trump.”
