McConnell unloads on Trump: 'Morally responsible' for provoking mob

[Guno צְבִי]

Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Saturday unleashed blistering criticism of former President Trump, blaming him for sparking the attack on the Capitol while also explaining why he didn't vote for a conviction.

McConnell also suggested that Trump could face criminal prosecution for his actions.

"There's no question, none, that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day. No question about it. The people that stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president," McConnell said.

"And having that belief was a foreseeable consequence of the growing crescendo of false statements, conspiracy theories and reckless hyperbole, which the defeated president kept shouting into the largest megaphone on the earth," McConnell added.

McConnell said the mob breached the Capitol because they were fed "wild falsehoods" by Trump because he was "angry he had lost an election."


"We know that he was watching the same live television as the rest of us. A mob was assaulting the Capitol in his name. ...The president did not act swiftly. He did not do his job. He didn't take steps so federal law he could be faithfully executed and order restored," McConnell said.


McConnell, however, hinted that Trump could still face legal repercussions.

"President Trump is still liable for everything he did while he was in office, as an ordinary citizen, unless the statue of limitations has run. ...Didn't get away with anything, yet," McConnell said.

He voted innocent because the House paperwork was delivered after Trump was out. Mitch refused the papers until after the inauguration. This is rt wing crap. Biy at least he admitted that the case was proven.

End Act I. Act II will be a few key trials/court cases and Act III will be the Trump's and the remnants of the Proud Boys and Boogaloo Bois making Mar-a-Lago look like Waco. The ultimate irony. End.

Says Mitch, who is very much a sleaze himself, one who has done almost nothing to protect the Constitution or the rights of the American people to decide in a fair election who our President is.

Interesting, Mitch is the ultimate politician, head political game player, so this is rather confusing, certainly not a moment of consciousness, only thing I can come up with is his attempt to divorce the GOP from Trump, or give some kind of cover for those who voted guilty.

How would you like to be one of those that voted not guilty and now your team leader just pulled the rug out from the beneath you

Bullshit, the right, and certainly you, loved the guy when he did his “best to make Obama a one term President,” or used closure at record levels attempting to do so, or when he change the rules for judicial approvals, or kept Scalia’s seat vacant for nearly a year, but now he is “sleaze” cause he tells the truth

Nothing but a ploy to maintain power as Minority Leader by voting not guilty and to maintain some sort of voter base by proclaiming Trump the guilty sleaze everyone knows he is.

Fuck Mitch.
