Mary Trump: Mitch McConnel is the biggest traitor

[samplegirl]

since Robert E. Lee

The difference between the two men? "McConnell has been trying to take our country down from within," Trump says


Mary Trump called her uncle the "weakest man" she's ever known — and compared Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., to Robert E. Lee.

The twice-impeached one-term president's niece published a lengthy essay in The New Republic laying out her concerns that Donald Trump and his Republican allies were dead set on establishing a white supremacist minority rule over the U.S., and explained what was necessary to prevent that.

"Donald showed his party (and yes, it is his party) the limits of pretending to care about good governance or play by the rules," Mary Trump wrote. "He also showed them the utility of not just stoking racism and hatred of the other — in the form of immigrants, Democrats, and even epidemiologists — but championing those who espoused them

Donald’s Plot Against America

Every undemocratic facet of our system—from the filibuster to the Electoral College to voter suppression to failing to make the District of Columbia a state—favors Republicans. They have no incentive to change anything. Tens of millions of voters may be effectively disenfranchised by their legislation and faux-audits, but their voters are not. The endgame is to make it impossible for people who would vote against them to vote at all. In a country of changing demographics and increasing openness to diversity, at a time when elected Republicans are on the wrong side of almost every issue—gun safety, taxes, voting rights—they know the only way for them to cling to power is to cheat, and if there is one skill the de facto leader of their party has, it’s his ability to cheat his way out of—or into—just about anything.
