Tonight's Truth Social Tirade is going to be about Mitch McConnell

WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitch McConnell said after the 2020 election that then-President Donald Trump was “stupid as well as being ill-tempered,” a “despicable human being” and a “narcissist,” according to excerpts from a new biography of the Senate Republican leader that will be released this month.
...
Privately, he said in his oral history that “it’s not just the Democrats who are counting the days” until Trump left office, and that Trump’s behavior “only underscores the good judgment of the American people. They’ve had just enough of the misrepresentations, the outright lies almost on a daily basis, and they fired him.”

The book is supposed to come out after the election, but I am betting the publishers released excerpts now to increase sales. These guys deserve each other and I hope they both wind up looking like idiots.

Mitch McConnell can suck my balls. He not only got the judges he craved, but his wife had a cushy job up until January 6th. If McConnell's Republicans vote to impeach, Trump is finished, but The Turtle wouldn't let it happen.

I'd said it before: Mitch McConnell is the most successful American authoritarian politician I know of, and Trump is a piker compared to him.

Nobody can demean a republicon like a republicon,
my pappy might have said if he wasn't dead.
