Looks Like Mitch McConnell Is Going to Be Trump's Defense Attorney

He's speaking right now on MSNBC, doubling down on his prejudiced attitude toward the impeachment. He will work to acquit Trump, so he'll be acting as his defense attorney, rather than as the Majority Leader in the Senate.

As such, he needs to recuse himself, not participate in the trial and resign his leadership position.

Will Moscow Mitch also crown Dumpy Trumpy king? You know he really wants to. And will Moscow Mitch then bow down to him?

Brought to you by all the filthy rich Americans. Even Gates got a multi million dollar contract out of Trump's reign. Why don't the rest of us get the same hand out?
