Telling the truth is a provocation?

from my view, it had to be done. How else was he going to get the military in place, with authority to make arrests. Well played POTUS... Well played.

McConnel is a Deep State scumbag. His wife is Chinese and her family owns a pretty big company there, CCP ties.

Remember when the Republican party was one of the two major parties in America? Too bad these clowns don’t get that this is less about Trump and more about the republic.

Now. . . “provoke” might be a good word for this. “Provoke” those who hate him to try to make Trump rally attendees look bad. But it is clear he did not incite or inspire his supporters to storm the Capitol.

It is absurd for the Senator to blame the victim of breaches in ballot security for the chaos that followed. The President was a victim not a perpetrator.

Agreed, I've made similar arguments.

This is McConnel’s version of “I don’t need your vote.”

It’s time the uniparty merged into one party and a viable second party, led by Trump, emerged.

How old is McConnell going to be in 2026? I can't believe he will run again.

I believe Senator McConnell thinks his words and actions will help to heal the Republican Party.

My guess is that the party is seriously damaged and will not recover by 2022.

Statement like what McConnell is saying make that damage all the more difficult to overcome.
