Top Republican: It's OK if Trump says he'd collude with Russia since it's 'hypothetical'

House Minority Whip Steve Scalise defended Trump's admission of being open to colluding with foreign powers, saying it was 'hypothetical.'

Let the parade of GOP lawmakers twisting themselves into pretzels to defend their unethical and immoral leader commence.

On Thursday morning, House Minority Whip Steve Scalise sought to defend Trump's admission that he's open to illegally colluding with hostile foreign powers — such as Russia and China — in order to win reelection in 2020.

Scalise did so by saying that Trump was just discussing a "hypothetical" situation — as if that's true or somehow makes Trump's admission acceptable.

"I have been in many situations with [POTUS] where how he responded to a hypothetical question was treated very differently when he actually had to deal with a specific problem," Scalise said, according to Elizabeth Crisp, a reporter at the local Louisiana newspaper the Advocate. "How you deal with it in a hypothetical is different because it's not real."
