CNN's Don Lemon said he hears nothing but "crickets" from the GOP after news broke that Michael Cohen and Pual Manafort were found guilty of tax fraud on the same day.
"The White House is reeling in the wake of what may have been the worst day of the Trump presidency, so far. Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort is in a Virginia jail tonight awaiting sentencing on eight counts of financial crimes that could put him behind bars for the rest of his life," Lemon said.
Lemon then questioned what Republican lawmakers were doing about it.
"Then you might think that Republican lawmakers would feel compelled to speak out in the face of all of this," he said.
He added, "Actually, it probably won't surprise you at all to hear that the response from the president's own party is pretty much this — crickets and deafening silence. Nothing. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell completely silent."
