REPORT: McConnell Believes Trump Committed Impeachable Offenses (NYT sites anonymous sources, Hummmmm) BS Alert
The Daily Caller ^ | 1/12/2021 | HENRY RODGERS

Posted on 01/12/2021 3:11:21 PM PST by Beave Meister

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has reportedly told his Republican colleagues that President Donald Trump committed impeachable offenses and that he is fine with Democrats moving forward with impeachment.

The New York Times released a report Tuesday, citing anonymous sources, saying that McConnell is pleased Democrats will try to impeach Trump, as it will help separate the Republican party from Trump. Rioters supporting Trump stormed the U.S. capitol Wednesday, committing acts of vandalism and violence and postponing the electoral college certification process, forcing members of Congress to evacuate the building.

Democrats in the House of Representatives introduced at least one article of impeachment against Trump on Monday morning after the pro-Trump mob stormed the U.S. Capitol.

As much as I think the Turtle is thinking this, I have serious doubts and have to call BS on the New York Times, with another anonymous source, McConnell has said before the earliest the Senate could even hear this case would be on January 20, at 1:00 p.m. at which time Biden will already have been sworn in...Unless The Turtle is trying to send a message to Trump not to even think about running in 2024.

Agree.

Turtle has previously stated that Trump could be impeached even out of office.

The Turtle made billions from his Chinese wife's shipping tycoon company.

The Turtle wants Trump out and Biden in to hide his family treason.

Just like Kemp and GA SOS Raffenburger: traitors need to cover their asses to avoid implication.

Dershowitz said you can’t impeach a former president.

I’m not sure that a leader of the party wants to lose 72 million voters. Pretty sure this is wishful thinking. I wish he would lose all those voters because we might be forced to start a “MAGA Agenda.” movement.

Try Trump for impeachment after 2021 and I am afraid that will be the final straw. Everyone knows the election was stolen and that Trump did not incite Trump supporters to riot at the capitol and that the rioters were Antifa and it appears that they were supported by democrats maybe paid for them to come to DC and and opened the doors for them.

TIME

When will you Republicans in the base learn the GOP Establishment wants open borders, free trade with China and neocon wars and could care less if they lose elections - Democrats do the same policies so the uniparty wins.

I just sent McConnel this:

Senator:
At 68 years of age I’ve never voted Democrat and always voted Republican.
I watched the White House be violently attacked for days. Joe Biden called that “peaceful” and criticized the President for repelling the attackers.
If Republicans cause the president to be disqualified from office while Biden is allowed (of course) to serve, I will never vote for or support any Republican again. I will instead plan to finish my days calling for voters to reject the republican party in all elections.
And you will deserve that reaction from many millions of Republicans.
Thank you for your consideration.

Yeh it’s easy for Mitch to line up 17 senators ones who aren’t up for re-election next year and just play the waiting game hoping the base forgets about it in a year

Everyone put on a goat’s head and dance around the fires, old boys and girls club, cash in envelopes for everybody, thank you George and Chairman Xi.

Is that about the gist of it?

Take my word for it, Cocaine Mitch—the separation has already taken place.
