    sure, you run with that, what part of the content of the tweet was fake, the reality is, you and I both know the words were Trump's

    Mitch McConnell clearly stated that trump is guilty - both practically and morally, for the attack on the capitol.

    Why are you making this about the Democrats?

    That's just an example that this is a cult and about one man, not a party, or a philosophy, or a platform. It is the worship of a false god.

    Fast? I was never a Turtle fan. The fact that he's mildly less dangerous that most Democrats doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things.

    Not conservative enough. He along with Pelosi and Schummer are the world's best argument for term limits.

    Mitch will enjoy his teas with Chuck Schumer and then disappear.

    Trump wasn't Conservative at all, did you support him?

    McConnell voted “not guilty”. Which had more impact - his vote or his hissy fit?

    I’m not interested in retrying the case on PF - Trump’s lawyer schooled a CBS talking head on the subject; see if you can find the vid.

    The verdict was “not guilty”, period. You can toss up arguments until the next election/impeachment - whichever comes first, it’s not going to change a thing. Maybe it’s time to just get over it?

    Not guilty on a technicality, guilty in fact. That is what the head Republican said.

    Why are you lying? You know what McConnell said. Do you think your gaslighting is fooling anyone?

    Looks like you have nothing substantive to add.

    Republicans operate using group think. They do not value nor hold any respect for differing opinions. Liz Cheney told her fellow constituents to vote with their hearts, and in return they held a vote to remove her from her position. Do not speak out against them or they will primary you. They have made that much clear.

    Wrong. Almost everything he did save for excessive spending for much of which I don't think there was any other rational choice, was conservative.

    Perhaps his hissy fit. He laid out why a DoJ should prosecute him in a court of law.

    Democrats are more prone to rage than Republicans.

    Ha! So after painting an entire group with a broad stroke, you use the term "group think" Thank you for that!

    Am I wrong? Why do you need to remove someone who says to vote with your heart unless you are demanding conformity among your party?

    You are wrong, just like all others that use the sweeping generalization fallacy. Racists use it often.

    I don’t think so. He expressed a fact free opinion. In a real court of law, sans kangaroos, rules of evidence apply; the delusional blather of some rioters that “Trump wanted me to do this” would get laughed out of court. As would most of the managers’ overwrought hyperbole and partisan jibber jabber.
