February 25, 2021: Sen. McConnell Says He Would Support Trump in 2024

 

2/25/21: Cleanup on Aisle 45 continues. If you remember the “kids in cages” days, when Team Trump decided to separate young children from their families, as those families tried to sneak across the border, the previous administration soon woke up to two terrible realizations. First, most people with beating hearts believed this was an inhumane policy. Second, when Team Trump was forced to reverse course, the cruel geniuses responsible for the separations were unable to find many of the parents and return at least 628 children. It’s hard to lose that many parents, but Trump and his team of soulless incompetents managed to do so. 

President Biden has established a task force to work, specifically on reuniting the children with their parents. 

As of today, the number still not returned has dropped to 506.

McConnell now says he would back Trump in 2024. 

EVEN FOX NEWS is surprised. Today, Sen. Mitch McConnell makes it clear. He can’t quit Donald J. Trump. 

In a breathtaking turnabout, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Thursday on Fox News that he would “absolutely” back Donald Trump for president in 2024 if he becomes the Republican Party nominee.

 

The startling support came less than two weeks after McConnell’s angry slam of the former president as “practically and morally responsible” for inciting last month’s deadly storming of the U.S. Capitol. “There’s no question,” McConnell said. “The people that stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president.” He called Trump’s actions “a disgraceful dereliction of duty.”

 

So. Sure. Let’s give him a chance to finish the job. Let’s elect Trump to be the 47^th president and dismantle democracy.
