No but kinda. These questions were never asked. Its paraphrased. I mean these are literally both the exact same photo.

The exact question that was asked is:

"If former President Trump is convicted in a court of law, would you still support him as your party's choice?"

They cut out one guy who didn't raise his hand on the far left and also Chris Christie on the left who half-raised his hand with one finger.

Also no one raised their hands immediately. There was a short pause and then they all went up from right to left. As if they weren't sure it was safe to say so unless their co-conspiratora did.

So yeah, all of these people said they would support a convicted criminal for President. Including the guy that the criminal nearly had killed.

That's the part that blows my mind the most. Trump threw Pence to the wolves and continues to do so and he would still support him for President?? Despite saying just the other day that he should never be President again? This guy flip flops like a fish out of water.
