Mitch McConnell is really pushing our credulity: If the Senate minority leader isn't stupid, the alternatives are not much better
American Thinker ^ | 03/19/2021 | Robert Arvay

Posted on 03/19/2021 7:28:07 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Senator Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), the minority leader, cannot be as stupid as his words make him sound, but the alternative is worse than mere rank stupidity.

On the Senate floor, he said:

"Does anyone really believe the American people were voting for an entirely new system of government by electing Joe Biden to the White House and a 50/50 Senate? ... There was no mandate to completely transform America by the American people on November 3rd. ... Does anyone believe that millions of Americans thought that's what they were electing?"

The real question is, did Senator McConnell, and his fellow Republican senators, fail to foresee the dire consequences of a Biden administration? They were warned, not only by a multitude of obscure people such as my insignificant self, but by every patriot, minor and major, who could read the writing on the wall. McConnell knew full well that the election was being stolen, and stolen by enemies of the Republic who would, as McConnell belatedly laments, establish "an entirely new system of government," which would "completely transform America."

If McConnell was not being stupid, then he is far worse than that, someone who did in fact know the sinister aims of the nascent tyrants who, having achieved an illegal coup, are now entrenching themselves in a system they intend to make permanent and irremovable. To symbolize that fact, they have now physically built an iron curtain around the Capitol and installed an armed military guard reminiscent of the East German border sentries who murdered countless people seeking freedom.

It could have been stopped.
It should have been stopped.

The GOP had no desire to stop it.

RE: He’s play acting, he was neck deep in the effort to oust Trump.

AGREE. One does not watch flames engulfing a nursing home, while standing idly by, holding the fire hoses, and then cry out at the tragedy of it all. We hired ( they call it elected) these officials to serve as guards of our Republic. Whether through cowardice, greed, or treasonous intent, they abandoned us in our moment of need. What is the saying? You had one job, one job...

McConnell’s words are vacuous, perhaps intentionally deceitful. Unwilling to perform his duty when it was far more achievable than it ever will be again, we must not credit him now with any semblance of a sense of duty. His words are aimed at potential donors to his political campaign organization, not at us.

Does anyone really believe that McConnell has any courage?

He, more than anyone, sabotaged Trump’s first term.

No. Traitor Mitch and his flea circus of RINOs have no credibility. They chose anything but Trump and are getting their wish. They should all FOAD and a malediction on their souls. They have condemned us to burn in hell.

Good article!

Yes, Mitch knew it was an illegal win, but thought the GOP-E would genteelly contain it. The GOP-E wanted to get rid of Trump as much as the Dems did, so it was a wink and a nod to allowing “good” corruption to bring in Biden and then an expectation to close the malicious openings afterward.

McConnell and Lee seem genuinely surprised that the Democrats are mandating the methods used to steal the election, when anyone with half a brain would know you can't be mad at the scorpion when you are the frog (or turtle) carrying that scorpion across the river.

Yes, the GOP-E is, and always has been, this stupid and willing to take part in illegal activities.

• The US ‘Government’ is running amok and is a worse global joke than any third-world shit hole!
• No one is accountable to anyone for anything!
• No standards or rules exist, to which appeal or redress can be made!!
• Anyone can arbitrarily charge ANYONE else with ANHTHING.

McConnell at least got judges through.

Paul Ryan was 100% unhelpful.

McConnell thought they could erect a fraudulent ruse to take out Trump while keeping the Senate. The arrogant self-centered ass and his even more assinine backers miscalculated. It was one of those classic hold muh beer and watch this moments.

This is why McConnell is now telegraphing his retirement after winning another six years.

Mitch is true toast.

Which has already proved itself to be meaningless.

The judges have been underwhelming, so far, to say the least.
