These Republicans keep crying "witch hunt." I don't think they really know what that means. What they're trying to emphasize, of course, is their supposed innocence, and how they're being falsely accused. But that's where the similarity ends.
A witch hunt always had a test, to determine if the woman was a witch. These tests were designed by the religious leaders of the community. And those lying psychopaths, justifying their actions on some vague references in the Bible to killing all witches, designed the test knowing the woman wasn't a witch, that there was no such thing as witches, and made it so the test would kill the woman.
And it is here that the witch hunt claim totally falls apart. If what happened to all these Republicans was a witch hunt, they'd no longer be among the living. At the very least, they'd be in prison for life. Plus, the ironic thing here too is that the Republicans really are evil incarnate, just in a secular way, and deserve to be imprisoned for life--or in an insane asylum.
