"SNIP.....
Former President Trump said late Monday that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is helpless against considerations by President Biden to expand the number of Supreme Court justices serving on the bench, The Hill reports
Said Trump: With leaders like Mitch McConnell, they are helpless to fight. He didnt fight for the Presidency, and he wont fight for the Court. If and when this happens, I hope the Justices remember the day they didnt have courage to do what they should have done for America.
.....SNIP"

(21,487 posts)some leaders as not being as tough as daddy and knows he can attack them? Authority figures with flaws that daddy didn't have could be his substitute punching bags for for the daddy he couldn't stand up to. He seems to alternate between seeking the approval of thugs and tearing down authority figures that he sees as weak.
But in this case, I think that Donny the Orange just wants to take control of the party and the turtle is in the way.

We couldn't hope for better.
It's like he has a stuck "Self-Destruct" button.

(118,295 posts)the two necessarily must, as rapidly as might be, polish up their boxed pistoles, retire together remotely beyond the furthest edges of civilization, and determinedly pling-pling away at each another until one finds satisfaction by drawing some blood

(321 posts)What the F is taking so long on these so called
investigations. The Turtle's wife, that POS , the
stolen money from the Inauguration, and Matt.
All have been like a year or more under investigation.
Yeah we need a commission finding out and who
is blocking them.

(16,426 posts)Chump is a loser and he can't stand it, but admitting his own failings is unthinkable for him. So he lashes out at other people. No one more richly deserves to be lashed out at than the turtleman, so I don't even have to feel guilty about enjoying the Schadenfreude of watching Chump tear into him.
What's really funny is that while there are SOOOO many things that McTurtle legitimately deserves to be castigated for, the only thing Chump's mad about is something Mitch actually got right: not backing up Chump on his treasonous coup attempt! I find that hilariously ironic!
