You can almost hear McConnell thinking “that uppity negra has no right talking about his betters.” God Mitch has an ugly soul.

Hmm… wonder if anyone ever asked Mitch about Dick Cheney’s sniping at the Obama administration? Surely Mitchwould be consistent and and considered that Classless?

Or maybe he meant Crassless…

Of course, sir, and you can abide by the constitution, stop packing the courts, table for consideration legislation submitted by the House, allow free and open hearings into … (fill in the blank)…for a start.

Poor baby, the previous occupant of the WH spoke in full sentences and made a thoughtful, albeit critical, statement about the current administration. And he’s still more popular!!!

Of course, it is the epitome of class to say that a former POTUS should have “shut his mouth”!

I think Mitch is worried about the internals and losing the senate.

Mitch McConnell listens to Donald Trump insult and attack the press, Democrats, and non-capitulating Republicans on a daily basis. The President’s Twitter feed is a cesspool of lies, unhinged rants, and retweets from some of the darkest and sleaziest corners of social media. And yet, the Senate Majority Leader chooses to unpack the word “classless” for the first time when referring to a [truthful and accurate] comment in a private conversation uttered by a two-term President elected twice by clear majorities of the voting population.

Get used to it Mitch, Obama is going to continue to unload on Trump and the GOP, especially after Biden is the official nominee. Maybe you should retreat into your shell and try to ride it out.

Hey Mitch! C’mon and say the N word in public! We know that’s what you want to say!

And the worst part is Obama is correct and accurate, his statements are based on facts and data … and people like and trust him more.

Hence, Trump’s need for Barr to pursue “Obamagate.”
