Trump blows up GOP plans by having 'soft spot' for indicted Democrats: report

Former President Donald Trump appears to have what Semafor reporter Dave Weigel is describing as a "soft spot" for certain members of the Democratic Party.

The catch is, those particular members are the ones who have been indicted by the United States Department of Justice.

The latest such example is Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), whom Trump described as "respected" shortly after federal prosecutors charged him with bribery, money laundering, and conspiracy on behalf of a foreign government.
