Here's the thing you fucking stupid turtle,

Last edited Fri Dec 23, 2022, 08:36 AM - Edit history (1)

you could have brought Trump's political career to a full stop by convicting him on February 13, 2021. You could have been Majority Leader without Oz, Walker and Masters. But like the cynical, corrupt to the core, smartest guy in the room wannabe, you took the path of least resistance. The crazies may not be smart, but they have an insatiable taste for blood. You lost. Choke on it. FU.

And republicans are actually getting worse. Marjorie Taylor Greene has just about bullied herself into being a power in the House, and the party btw, by backing spineless Kevin McCarthy.

Two made for each other if you ask me—one with no spine or courage and the other with all the confidence in the world but dumb as a fucking rock.

that at one point in time Mitch claimed that "democrats may do our job for us" regarding trump, paraphrasing.

Mitch, we DID do your job for you; you rubber stamped his acquittal twice.

that was a decades long project, and it worked perfectly. the federal judiciary is stocked with conservative ideologues at every level, all with lifetime appointments. the SCOTUS has a rigid conservative majority that should last 20 years, if not longer. ACB is only 50 - she'll be on that court 30 years from now.

trump was a useful idiot, and now he's a joke, which what mcconnell bet on when he let him off the hook in impeachment 2.0.

mcconnell is a lot of things, but stupid isn't one of them.

Mitch Mac thought he could use, control, and discard TFG. It was the other way around.

Turtle is a fool. We gave him the solution on a silver platter and he left it on the table. He was too afraid of trump's MAGA base to do the right thing, and it cost him is leadership position.

I hope you are having a great holiday season!

His voice just grates on my last nerve and his face makes me want to hurl. The only thing helps is knowing that he's sickly looking and old and hopefully the planet and mother nature will take care of him sooner rather than later.

That, though very real and certainly a tool for the aggressors, the magat "hit squads" are a distraction to the real driver in all this. It is still the wealthy 0.01% who are funding and issuing orders, buying politicians and judges, and dictating policy to gain control of the major democracies on the planet. Democracy, power of the people, is not what they want because it keeps them from ruling the world. The magat terrorists are their, though still in development, enforcement squad. This entire network needs to be deconstructed and soon. We can make no progress in preventing our own extinction until we have overwhelmed them.
