Jim Jordan slams Dems’ ‘double standards’ at Trump impeachment vote

GOP Rep. Jim Jordan slammed the “double standards” of Democrats on Wednesday morning as the House moves to impeach President Trump for a second time — noting their own efforts to undermine the 2016 election.

In a fiery speech on the House floor, Jordan (R-Ohio), an ardent Trump confidante, noted that many of the Democrats leading the impeachment charge objected to Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton.

“Guess who the first objector was on January 6, 2017? The first objector was the Democratic chairman of the Rules Committee,” Jordan said, referring to Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.)

Several Republican lawmakers objected to Biden’s victory in key swing states and called for a commission to be established to investigate election fraud, something Jordan is still pushing for.

“Americans are tired of the double standard. They are so tired of it,” he said.

“They can object to Alabama in 2017 but tell us we can’t object to Pennsylvania in 2021,” Jordan continued.
