Mitch McConnell threatened Trump with conviction if he pardoned Julian Assange

Tucker Carlson said that the Senate GOP, specifically Mitch McConnell "has sent word over to the WH: if you pardon Julian Assange, we are much more likely to convict you in an impeachment trial."

I was SHOCKED when I heard Tucker say this. OMG. What an asshole. I hope Trump pardons Assange as a FU to Mcconnell.

“...He was just reelected. His buddy Grahamnesty too.
Six more years of them....”

Both of em re-elected on the coattails of President Trump.
Traitorous, back-stabbing bassturds, they are.
Pardon him, President Trump. Give the Turtle heart failure...it will be good for him.

MY response would be, “Do it! I intend to primary you and all your fellow eGOP RINOs using money you can’t touch.”

Trump’s inner circle of attorneys have throttled his communication and isolated him from the public. Their motive was to minimize the blow-back from congress. However, the persecution from congress is open spigot and these inner-circle clowns contributed to the election steal.

Where in the Constitution does it say a former president can be impeached? Good grief.

This is the evil of politics. Do what is right and you will suffer big time.

Nothing new here under the sun. I’m sure in many ways Trump is glad to get out of it. Trouble is the evil will probably be going after Trump for the rest of his life. Especially if he attempts to continue to lead his followers.....which is inevitable.....

The Founders biggest f***up was in not putting term limits on everyone in all three branches of government.

So Assange made public of crimes and you haven’t made up your mind about what he did. You’re a traitor.

The senate may convene a trial, but the senate determines ALL the rules. A TRUMP Impeachment would look like a “Captain Blood” trial from Old England, only a naive soul would think or believe otherwise.

Do you honestly think that there wont be hell to pay if Trump cannot even defend himself in a trial? 2/3 of the Senate will NEVER GO for this. I know its crazy right now but that would be the ABSOLUTE end of the Republic right there.

They will probably go after his family like they did with Flynn.

Mitch ..that a threat of blackmail..because an pardon has nothing to do with your impeachment charge.. so you admit the charge is meaningless

Is Assange smart and tied-in enough to know whether everything he receives and chooses to ‘publish’ will bring light only, and not do a lot of damage instead?

I don’t know. I don’t know much about the man himself at all; except that he has seemed a rather eccentric person in some respects.

“Maybe Assange has the goods to put Xiansheng O’Turtle away for good”

My 1st thought

Deep State uses Democraps to be the ultimate knife into carcass of America. GOP is used to splinter and minimize principled efforts to fight them.

Trump upset the fragmented minority position. Mitch is a wheeler dealer for the deep state. Turtle needs to be removed by any means necessary.

“But lately I’ve really wondered in whose pocket McConnell lives.”

Silly question. His Chinese Wife’s pocket with business ties to Red China. Next Question?
