I said this the day after the damned election and before in this board and no one seems to pay any attention.
Of course, McConnell was in on it from the phuquing start. Look, I’ve seen idiots on here make fun of Trump for appointing people like Chris Wray as head of the FBI after he fired Comey. They made fun of him for appointing swamp creatures. Well, why did he do that? The answer is easy. Those were the only people who could make it through confirmation. Well, he could have just made some recess appointments and done away with the need for confirmation right? No he couldn’t have. Why not? Because Mitch McConnell kept the senate in session for the entire term of Trump’s presidency for the express purpose of denying him the opportunity to make recess appointments.
So, throughout his presidency, Trump’s agenda was hindered and thwarted at every turn by imbedded swamp creatures who would not be rooted out and fired by their even swampier bosses. And most importantly, when the hour of need was at its greatest and the election was being stolen before our eyes, instead of having a justice department and federal law enforcement that was ready and willing to investigate, Trump had the likes of William Barr and Chris Wray who could send 17 agents to check on a garage pull, but who couldn’t be bothered with the most important election in or history.
The reason that was the case and the SOLE reason it was the case was because Mitch McConnell specifically kept Trump from doing differently.
