Sen. Chuck Grassley’s views have shifted

A video from the Bill Clinton impeachment vote in the U.S. Senate showed a young Sen. Chuck Grassley expressing his outrage that President Clinton would lie and how this offense was worthy of removal from office. Fast forward to today, and you'll hear a different Sen. Grassley. Telling lies, meeting with Russians charged with U.S. election meddling, and paying hush money to a porn star and Playboy bunny seem not to be important.
Why the opposing views on morality? Donald Trump is a Republican, and party comes before country. Saying shame on Grassley is a waste of time. He proved his lack of shame when he refused to allow hearings on U.S. Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland.
