that's been gathering speed. For McConnell it is all about power, and he threw in with, and serves, what he believes will be the winning side.

That's why 2016 was such a dreadful and dangerous loss. It's not just Trump but our republic. It's not the deluded ambitions of a small LW faction, but the RW monster that's grown too enormous to hide any longer under the American bed.

to his opponent, there are consequences to his arrogance.

I already gave to Amy McGrath.

McConnell has disdain for the American people, no surprise since he doesn't care about Kentuckians either. And I'm not even Kentuckian.

McConnel/GOP betting on american people to have a short memory with Nov elections coming. I believe this will be a huge error on their part.

never think for 1 second that facts, justice, right/wrong MEAN anything to GOP/republicans/conservatives. Only comes an issue if democrats are involved.

McConnel sees no trial or a sham trial as his best course.

Is what motivates them.
FEAR of the truth.
The truth will hurt them.
The truth must not be exposed.

That is why this approach to the Senate Impeachment Trial was structured and manufactured - to insulate and protect them at all costs from the truth.

He's covering up for Trump because he's an accomplice to the Trump crime spree. Mitch was involved from Day One, so in covering up for Trump, he's also covering up for himself.

He does "trust" us, and that's the problem for him. He knows what will happen to if we learn the truth, and it terrifies him. He knows what we'll do if and when we find out the facts about Trump, himself, and everyone else involved. That's why he's so desperate to cover everything up.

Could you imagine the the level of stinking rot that they are keeping covered up, since they are so chickenshit to even view evidence or hear witnesses?
