Rep. Adam Schiff (R-Calif.) dropped a brutal reminder for Republicans about Donald Trump on Thursday as he quoted the Manhattan jury’s verdict in the former president’s hush money trial last month.

“Guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty, guilty,” said Schiff at a House Judiciary Committee hearing.

“This was what the jury pronounced unanimously on every count.”

Republicans on the committee, chaired by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), announced the hearing to examine what they referred to as Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s “political prosecution” of the presumptive GOP presidential nominee.

The former president himself, along with Republicans, have pushed a “political persecution” claim in the wake of the conviction.

He’s also made claims that tie President Joe Biden and the Justice Department to the case despite Bragg and his office operating in New York State.

Schiff’s remarks arrived roughly two weeks after Trump was found guilty on all 34 criminal charges of falsifying business records to cover up allegations of an alleged sexual encounter with adult film star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

“My Republican colleagues don’t really contest Donald Trump’s guilt, this is the fascinating thing. Their argument is essentially, he should have never been prosecuted. Or they falsely claim it was a political prosecution. Or they falsely claim it should have been a misdemeanor, not a felony,” Schiff said.

He continued, “But they don’t contest, not really, that Donald Trump was making hush money payments to a porn star to hide their affair from voters.”

The California Democrat went on to claim that Republicans are saying they’re “more than comfortable” nominating and electing a U.S. president who made hush money payments to a porn star.

“The party, formally of the moral majority, is now I suppose trying to fashion some kind of immoral majority to reinstate Donald Trump as president,” Schiff said.
