    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    After a week of her spending every day lowering the rhetorical sludge hammer on Trump and saying the right words about police and justice system reforms almost everyone on the Left will forgive her her history.
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

    Trump is a Russian agent. Anything to get that traitor out of the White House.

    Put it this way (and our resident right wingers will be moon howling at this); I could live with a Sanders/Warren ticket.....although they would be conciliatory with some GOP proposals, they would know where the financial bodies are buried and put a definite shift in how things are done for the working man/woman.

    But life hasn't worked out that way. A pity.

    As the article points out, for all the good she does it gets sullied by her capitulation on key court cases (Mnuchin). If Biden craps out and she takes the reigns, I don't see her changing style.

    Agree about Sanders/Warren. But I just want Trump out.

    Of course she will......she will do anything.....and she is a shapeshifter.

    Fundamentalism we call that, derogatorily.

    I could as well, truth be told we can live w/ whatever, as we must........lol

    Personally I hope to see Warren on the court, she would be the next Brandies which has been sorely needed for the last several decades..

    I love that thought, as well. I can see RBG stepping down when Biden takes office, and Warren appointed to take her place.

    Someone like her on the court would make me very happy & many crooked corporations very unhappy............
