I’ll believe Moscow Mitch is pleased with impeachment when he votes to convict and remove/bar from future office (depends on the timing) and not one millisecond before then.
Perhaps Mitch wants payback. “Thanks to your loss, my wife is no longer in a position to grift and your crybaby act cost me my Senate majority leader position.”
Perhaps Putin told Mitch he’s cutting Trump loose so no need to continue to pay lip service. (And I never thought Mitch supported Trump, he just wanted Trump’s voters)
Or perhaps Mitch thinks he can ride MAGAt anger over impeachment to getting back the Senate majority in 2 years. A turtle version of “please proceed…”
It’s a bit off quoting me like that with the last line removed. The last line of what I wrote makes it clear that I do not believe his actions derive from a principled stand. Removing it makes it look like I was saying the opposite.
Yup. This is the same obstructionist who proudly declared that the senate wouldn’t take anything up until the day before the inauguration. I’ll never trust that motherfucker.
“There has never been a greater betrayal by a President of the United States of his office and his oath to the Constitution,” she said in the statement.
A reason why I voted for Biden.
I felt he has the savvy, the relationships to help truly purge Trump, and wouldn’t fall into usual Lefty ploser performance posturing like the Bernie-AOC types.
He may have the backroom Senate streetcred and decades of relationships to pull this off in a way Obama never could (I was okay w Obama, didn’t love him but he was too Left intellectual )
Ya, this guy seems like he’s pretty clear on the matter too:
“There is no doubt in my mind that the President of the United States broke his oath of office and incited this insurrection. He used his position in the Executive to attack the Legislative,” the statement said.
Biden & Co need to do a deal with the anti Trump and McConnell- we help each other put a knife in the tibs of Trump and his quislings. Like a deal with old Uncle Joe Stalin, each side knows its temporary and time limited, but for mutual interest, and each side temporarily overlooks the others pecadillos
He was on CNN the other day. I don’t know anything else about him, but based on that interview he’s a decent guy. No prevaricating or equivocation either on what happened, or the response that’s required from Congress.
Exactly, this deserves every bit of investigation that Benghazi did, and more.
I don’t care what Republicans have to say about Trump, they didn’t mind it when he was shitting the bed. It’s up to them to deal with actually cleaning up the mess, and not just hiding it under the sheets.
Now, responsible Democratic mask wearing lawmakers are coming up covid positive, after being locked together with their reckless Republican dipshit fucking moron “fuck your health” “ha-ha lets see how long we can make this pandemic last” fucking ignoramus counterparts. Fuck off, Republicans.
Because they say the words: “We’re pro-life! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!”
It’s never anything but empty fucking words with Republicans. What you say you believe matters, not what you demonstrate you believe.
