Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell 'is done' and 'furious' with President Trump a source familiar confirmed to Fox News.

The source told Fox News that McConnell has shared with associates that impeachment will help rid the Republican Party of Trump and his movement.

It is unclear how McConnell would vote in an impeachment trial, should House Democrats vote to impeach Trump. It is not clear at this point whether McConnell would vote to convict.

Meanwhile, other sources told Fox News that there is "no love lost there."

Part of McConnell’s anger, according to sources, is that the Senate Majority was lost to the Democrats just last Tuesday in the Georgia Senate runoffs, but sources said that McConnell is extremely upset about the president’s actions Wednesday leading up to the riot at the Capitol......."

All these people think in such narrow terms. They can do nothing about the great American social war, which is going on in all spheres, of which electoral politics is a tiny part.

McConnell won’t care at all. He is old rich and on his last hurrah.

My mission from here on out is the destruction of the GOP.

They have been colluding with Democrats for 30 years to steal the country from the citizens by flooding it with foreigners.

Sorry, I missed the first 499 times.

Back to the subject at hand, I certainly do hope Trump has control over the military and that the excessive buildup in DC is not for police work protecting Biden.

And I would love to see a direct corrective action to the voter fraud. If the insurrection act is the right tool, then let’s hope it’s in the works.

Only if that entails running his limo into a ditch - or better still, over a cliff.

Said another way, fealty to “rule of law” must have a limit. At an extreme, the holocaust followed the rule of law.

The left has been using rule of law to perpetrate the Russin Hoax, Mueller, and now impeachment. Rule of law, lawfare, whatever, if that is the limit of force, then we lose. That’s obvious. Courts, Congress, passive ... your talk is lofty but you lose.

Spealking metaphorically here, we aren’t even brandishing at this point. Our position is that there is no reason to take the gun out of the holster, no matter what.

“If our so-called “leaders” do not recognize that, they will single handedly ensure that NO Republican ever gets elected again - not even for County Dog Catcher.”

They DO understand that - which is precisely why they want to get rid of Trump and his supporters. They are under the illusion that the GOP elite will have sufficient numbers to overcome 75+ MILLION Trump voters ...

Or they believe that some significant percentage of Trump voters will return to the fold of the establishment do-nothing party of Gutless Old Pussies.

“No way I’ll vote D though.”

Me neither. Every vote I cast since 1992 has been for a Republican.

I almost didn’t vote when McCain ran for president. Sarah Palin is who moved me to vote.

Even though he didn’t win, I regret voting for Mitt Romney.

Never imagined so much widespread contempt for us from the elite ruling class.

Mitch’s “bitch” was made in China, so he has his marching orders.

“McConnell is extremely upset about the president’s actions Wednesday leading up to the riot at the Capitol.”

Then the old coot is as dumb as a stump and/or has not heard or read the speech. PDJT’s actions were the opposite of instigation.

Mitch is about to become the most unpopular man in America.

Democrats hate him. And now most Republicans will too.

Mcconnell is more to blame for the capitol issue than Trump.

He and Pelosi ordered the capitol police to refuse any help from federal law enforcement agencies, that contacted the capitol polic several times before the rally. They rejected it on pelosi and mcconnell’s orders. Congress is in charge of the capitol police force.

“Mr. PRESIDENT, CALL TO ARMS”

If Oath Keepers aren’t stepping up on this issue, then I have to believe their existence is as no different than the existence of unicorns.

This is the ultimate event; there’ll be no more America.

The Senate does not reconvene until 1 PM ET, January 20, 2021. At that moment, Donald Trump will no longer be president, and will have been a private citizen again for one hour. Just how the fk does Bitch boy think a senate trial will be held to impeach a non-president. Does this decaying asshole know the Constitution - or does he just follow the marching orders of his Chi-com leash holder? Perhaps his Chi-com wife promised him a BJ.
