Prominent Republicans have not been hard to find in and around a Lower Manhattan courthouse during Donald Trump's hush money/falsified business records trial.
The Republicans who have showed up to voice their support for the former president include, among others, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana), Sen. Rick Scott (R-Florida), Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Alabama), Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Florida), and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. Some of them have been wearing matching red ties as an expression of solidarity with the former president (Trump is known for wearing red ties).
Speaking to reporters outside the courthouse, Tuberville attacked the jurors and implied that some of them are not U.S. citizens.

But not all Republicans believe these antics are a good idea.
On Tuesday, May 14, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) told HuffPost, "Do we have something to do around here other than watch a stupid porn trial? I mean, this is ridiculous."
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), a non-MAGA conservative who has said he won't vote for Trump in November, mocked the Republicans wearing red ties during the trial and sarcastically remarked, "If I go to New York, I'll make sure I wear a white shirt and a red tie."
Murkowski isn't supporting Trump's campaign either.
The Alaska senator recently told CNN, "I wish that, as Republicans, we had a nominee that I could get behind. I certainly can't get behind Donald Trump."
The Hill's Tara Suter reports, "Murkowski, who voted to convict the former president in his second impeachment trial back in 2021, has suggested that she is not fully against leaving the Republican Party, noting its shift toward Trump."
