As Ben Domenech explained in Wednesday morning’s issue of The Transom, the plan here would seriously threaten to rip the party “apart while dramatically increasing the likelihood that Donald Trump forms a third party — something his supporters would overwhelmingly welcome.”Yep.
McConnell still doesn’t understand Trump voters.
“Nancy Pelosi just rolled a bunch of hand grenades into the GOP, knowing full well that a bunch of morons like Lizard Cheney and that Kinzinger dope would fall all over themselves to pull the pins out. “
Yup.
That seems plausible.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer — who will soon switch jobs — will go to church with Biden on the morning of inauguration along with Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.
In a sign of unity, the top lawmakers will pray together at St. Matthew’s Cathedral in Washington before Biden’s swearing-in, according to two people familiar with the schedule. Biden will be only the second Catholic to serve as U.S. president.
President Donald Trump and his wife Melania have refused to do the traditional get-togethers with the incoming president and will not attend inauguration.
But other Republicans have stepped forward in their place. Vice President Mike Pence will be at inauguration and former President George W. Bush and his wife Laura will go to Arlington National Cemetery with the Bidens in the afternoon. — Jennifer Jacobs
