You are absolutely correct. If the Republican politicians stay silent and the big conservative talk radio hosts don’t run with it, it will be no different than a tree falling in the forest with no one to hear it.
Yes, and the Republican politicians know this is of little interest to their primary voters, for none of the presidential candidates ever mentioned this in any way as I recall.
