    Booing and attacking the one man who single-handedly prevented Trump from getting permanently barred from running for office.

    But at least Moscow Mitch is getting the treatment he actually deserves.

      They’re probably booing him because trump doesn’t like him, not because of any specific policies. Most of the simpletons in the audience work off emotion, not logic.

      And also hilarious, since he was all too happy to fully enable Trump.

      All that power that he cheated our democracy to put in Trumps hands, so that he could use him as a puppet to further his far right agenda, has turned on him. Even after kissing the ring after falling in line again after a very brief “perhaps we’ve gone too far” moment on Jan 6th.

      Fuck you, Mitch. You destroyed our democracy. You did this. You raised an idiot to a dictatorship thinking you could control him. Great fucking job.

        As is tradition. A lot of the more “moderates” in Germany thought they could easily control Hitler. Idiots failing to grasp weaponized stupidity in the hands of other idiots.

    If the fascists come to power I hope I get to see this guy get purged before they come for me.

    It’s going to be the Night of Long Knives or Stalin’s Purge all over again. Trump will terrorize and purge his own party to obtain absolute control.

        Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Don’t be sure it won’t happen here, because it can happen here. Everyone always assumes they’re part of the magical group that can’t fail, and everyone is always wrong. It can and will fail. It’s only a matter of when and how.

          I’m optimistic that America will get through this but I’m also a realist and do plan for the worst. Don’t worry I’m very aware of the situation. I’m in a position to easily jump ship if this country starts sinking.
