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.”

McConnell, McCarthy and McDaniels are all part of the Swamp.

Here is my problem with Mitch. There is a case to be made that impeaching Biden will hurt the GOP. Biden is slowly sinking and an impeachment will rally Dems and perhaps independents around him. So perhaps keep investigating and letting Biden sink under the weight of all the investigations. But that is not what Mitch is saying. Mitch is under the delusion that the Democrats won’t impeach the next Republican president irrespective of what the Republicans do. Mitch is arguing for unilateral disarmament. He says “don’t impeach Biden” but has no answer for how Republicans fight back against relentless partisanship that borders on illegality and that is turning the US into a banana republic. Mitch is saying let the US be a banana republic when the Dems are in charge but the Republicans should simply play by the rules.

too dirty to retire without deep state permission while they search for another leverageable asset to install in his place.

married to chicom family luminary... his wife is a foreign agent.

at the root... undisclosed treasonous betrayal by his wife.

If Biden can’t be impeached for his outright crimes then no POTUS can be impeached.

Mitch speaks for his Chinese handlers. I’m trying to recall if Mitch ever made such comments regarding Trump’s impeachments?

So I guess uninvestigated and unpunished corruption is good for Mitch’s country personal freedom and wealth.

Fixed!

Mitch is afraid that all the investigation into Bribem’s crimes will turn up his name, as another dirty senator who got rich on a middle class salary by occupying (I won’t say “serving”) elective office and selling access to himself.

Do we really want “Heels High Harris” as the fill in president if SloJoe gets impeached?

That's the kind of reasoning the democrats are banking on.

In reality, the same behind-the-curtain scum would be making all the same destructive left-wing decisions and Kamala would probably do a slightly better job than Joe reading prepared text off the prompter.

Putting Trump in prison for 600 years is, apparently, good for the country.

This is why we LOSE.
