Gee, Mitch, what was the real reason you left the Army after only five months in 1967?

And got a nice assignment in DC?

All at the height of the Vietnam War build-up?

Can’t he appoint Collins ambassador to Outer Mongolia? Murkowski trade commissioner to Tasmania? Dangle some carrots and get rid of these liberal deadbeats.

I think Trump expected the GOP in Congress to perform. Or, he’s let them expose and hang themselves.

I can’t wait for that blowup. It should start tomorrow after Moore wins. Mc Connell can get the blame for that also.
