Mitch McConnell: Biden Impeachment is ‘Not Good for the Country’
New York Post ^ | August 8, 2023 | Ryan King

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has gently nudged his Republican counterparts in the House of Representatives to pump the brakes on chatter of impeaching President Biden.

“I said two years ago, when we had not one but two impeachments, that once we go down this path it incentivizes the other side to do the same thing,” McConnell told the New York Times in an interview published Tuesday.

"Impeachment ought to be rare,” he added. “This is not good for the country.”

Mitch McConnell: Biden Impeachment is ‘Not Good for the Country’

Mitchie is covering for his former colleague because no doubt they were co-conspirators on a number of shakedowns over the years.

Lord, help us overthrow these “servants” who serve no one but themselves.

Oh they have a master they serve. They think it is themselves because they are deceived but its really the Dark lord who guides them.

I guess I should pity them for what is coming in the afterlife but I just can't. They deserve every nasty thing God can muster for eternity.

I really don't want them to repent. I've spent a lifetime dealing with their evil and lies. I'm looking forward to spending eternity in haven without these reprobates.

I'm a Christian but I never claimed to be a good one, just an honest one.

In a senate trial to remove Biden they might not even get 50 votes. Need 67.

You might not win that first fight with the bully.

But if you don’t fight him, things get worse.

Actually, I agree with McConnell. Never interfere with you enemy when they are shooting themselves in the foot.

Make the D’s get rid of their own albatross.

But Trump’s impeachment is fine, Mitch? Are you a Republican or an Asshole?

Indeed everyone in the senate know the deals that went down on both sides and don’t want to be ratted out.

The Turd Anti-defamation League would like you to know that Turds are more Important than Mitch, so please Don’t insult Turds. They are more useful than him.

Mitch is almost right. He is correct that impeachment is NOT GOOD for the country. BUT, a crooked president (formerly a crooked vice-president and crooked senator) is even WORSE for the country.

This is exactly what impeachment is for - when not impeaching is worse than impeaching.

On the other hand, since there is no way the Senate will even get a majority to convict (even if they have video tape of Biden accepting bribes), I am not sure the exercise would be worth it. (Maybe I am just getting discouraged).

Too bad Kevin doesn’t have the guts to investigate Mitch. It would not surprise me if The McConnell Family received payments for doing the Chinese thing.

Did the Dems ever expect to get 67 votes to convict President Trump over a perfect phone call (now fully vindicated) or over a speech asking people to peacefully and patriotically make their voices heard? Of course not.

If we get to the point of a Biden impeachment inquiry and with the mounting evidence, we may see that black limo glide up to the WH and convince Biden to resign a la Nixon. Kamala becomes president (barf!), Newsom is confirmed as VP, Kamala wants to spend more time with her family, Newsom becomes POTUS and runs for easy reelection riding the media-fueled sympathy vote. Nine years of Newsom with his VP Warren and the country is dead.

OK, maybe we should not impeach him ...
