    Meantime, McConnell is a vacillating pussy. He goes along to get along. Same as all the Trump haters, it seems. Just don't rock your boat and the criminal cabal in DC can do as they please Says a lot about you and anyone else that puts their dislike for one man above what's best for this nation to point of allowing criminals to take over.
    Here’s the thing: People that continue to show anger and disgust towards Trump, even after he’s out of office, remind me of Atheists. It’s not enough for Atheists to not believe in God. Many just continually mock believers and try to convince them to not believe too. Trump-haters still can’t let go, and want Trump supporters to “stop believing” in him. It’s not enough that I hate Trump, you must hate him too.

    Why can’t people have their beliefs and opinions and just live their lives in the (often smug) damn-sure beliefs they have, and let others do the same? Why all the angst if they are so sure they are 100% correct?

    Those who continue to show that Anger, and Disgust are driven by a pure HATRED, and nothing less.
    They have been self-satisfied with always believing in THE WORST because they fear being EXPOSED as the very same kind of people THEY CLAIM TO HATE.

    There's an old proverb (I think) that says: "WHEN YOU PRACTICE TO HATE. YOU BECOME WHAT YOU HATE!"

    SO IT APPEARS "TDS" is more than just an imaginary sickness. There's a REAL LIVE Pandemic of "HATRED", and we can see it almost everywhere we go. That appears to be why SO MANY PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS ANGRY, THEY CAN'T LAUGH, AND REFUSE TO

    That is because they are totally ruled by their hatred and their immense desire for control. Something in them that demands we lesser beings must bow to them because they are the--"enlightened ones">> which points to their arrogance and blindness about life, truth and we as mortal beings, imho.
    In face to face real life I simply tell such people shut the hell up and peddle your bullshit elsewhere.
    Being that about 90% of them are all blather, "cowards" per say- that works well.
    The very few times it didnt- lets just say they got more than their damn feelings hurt. nuff said..
    As truly I suffer not gladly, such arrogant and so very often such bully type fools.

    1. I didn’t do that.
    2. McConnell is still in office and very much relevant, so not the same as continuing to attack former president Trump.

    My opinion of McConnell pre-dates anyone even dreaming of Donald Trump as a Presidential nominee.

    IMO, as a stand alone act, McConnell put distance between himself and Trump to try and cover his own ass with the Dems by making statements that are not factually correct. Is there a precedent for suing the President of US after he is out of office for acts committed while President. If we're going to go down that road ....

    It was a general comment. And another general comment about why there is little critical thought about trump and his actions.

    And I for one am glad he's still in office and relevant. He's the top defender of conservatism in Congress right now.

    If, as you say..."He's the top defender of conservatism in Congress right now."

    IMO...He's either 100% as the top defender, or he's only following the Democrat rules...Only defending what will appease his own side and Kiss Schumer's, or Pelosi's RING.

    CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS! That's called being TWO FACED or being a HYPOCRITE.
    Better yet....It's called being PRINCIPLED and OBJECTIVE.
