44. The truth of that might be a refreshing shock
Fri Feb 4, 2022, 11:16 AM
Feb 2022

Most people think politicians are weaselly ass-kissers anyway. One thing that helped MF45 in the 2016 primary was that he got up there and told the truth about the other scumbag republicons during those debates.

Moscow Mitch often announces, or at least doesn't deny, the sleazy tactics he will be using. So when Biden said that he "does what he says" should have been sufficient politeness.

But how many people who pay little attention to politics heard that and now wrongly think McConnell must not be too bad, Biden says he's a "man of honor". That should not have been said.
