Do not let this bastard’s 11th hour conversion fool you. He’s still the same Mitch he was at the first impeachment trial.

The only good thing about the Turtle’s inevitable (and inevitably vile) change of stance is that it will likely enrage Donald.

Beyond that,

FUCK NO, MITCH.

WE’RE GOING TO TIE DONALD TO YOUR ANKLES AND THROW YOU OVERBOARD, BITCH.

And now we see the true bastard that we knew all along… He has blood from US citizens on his soul. But he made his pact with the devil ages ago.

I think McConnell really does hate Trump, whatever else can be said about him.

You did not enter an alternative universe. It’s the same McConnell universe. Don’t believe him. Don’t trust him. He’s a lawyer-liar and looking out for his own interests and the R party first and always. Trump has ruined it and now he’s fully disposable.

Shorter version of Mitch: “Out, out, damned spot!”

Sorry, Mitch, the dark stain and blood on your hands isn’t coming off quite so easily.

In the 11th hour, McConnell suddenly sees which way the wind is blowing and carefully tacks across it.

Fuck him.

Credit where credit is due, I guess–almost unique among his caucus, Yertle knows and has always known that Trumpism has been purely transactional and it’s knife in the back or be knifed in the back.

The man’s evil, not an idiot.
