Occasionally I'm with Mitch, especially with regard to his speech following the January 6 insurrection attempt.

Once again he gets it right...

The world during Donald Trump’s second presidency has entered a period of danger with “certain similarities to the 30s”, according to Mitch McConnell, the veteran Republican former Senate leader.

Former Senate leader likens administration’s fixation with tariffs to isolationist policies of the US in the 1930s

To be clear, McConnell is making a reference to the rise of Hitler/Nazism?

No.

From the article...

 
…..calling this “more dangerous” than the Cuban Missile Crisis or the mid 1980s, when the Soviets genuinely thought they were on the brink of a U.S. first strike attack, is dubious at best.

ON THE OTHER HAND, at least then the US had a sane President, now imagine if the Cuban Missile Crisis happened NOW with Trump in power. I can only imagine Trump telling Putin "I understand your need to put missiles in Cuba since NATO has missiles within easy striking range (Britain and France)
 


Ah............


Which to believe?

You know, I'll just pay closer attention to what Ottawa is doing
 
…..averting the crisis altogether would have actually been a good decision, actually.
 
I hop Mitch hasn't slept a wink since Trump was elected again. He and Garland could have fixed this and instead they acted like selfish cowards. Same goes for Barr.
 
Wasn't it Moscow Mitch that pushed a member of SCOTUS through and helped enable Trump's agenda? The old turtle needs to go back into his shell.

Yes, it was. After blocking Garland's confirmation hearing.
 
He's got some nerve flapping his gums now after being up to his penny loafers in Mangos arsch for the last freaking decade
