Raptor Witness Posted January 21, 2021 Author #27 Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) McConnell looked odd during the inauguration yesterday. I kept trying to put my finger on what I was seeing, and my guess is, he’s afraid of something. Say what you want about him, but he’s a notorious poker face. Yet yesterday, he revealed something. The poker face was gone. Perhaps he knows that he has no choice but to impeach Donald Trump, or perhaps he knows something else, which is far more terrifying. Nancy Pelosi, in her recent interview with Joy Reid, likewise, showed no poker face. If a cloud of tiny asteroids or tiny comets were suddenly dispatched towards the Earth I would expect to see the same missing poker faces.

Tatetopa Posted January 21, 2021 #29 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I think McConnell is playing a long game for control of the Republican party. His current adversary in the battle for control is Donald Trump not Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer. He has been biding his time and measuring relative power. He wants Trump out of the picture, impeachment seems like a way to drive him further away from the center of the action. When he knew Trump couldn't damage him severely in his limited time left, he came out with his comments about Trump responsibility for the capital breach along with "other powerful people" Cruz and Hawley are implied in his remark. He asked Republicans not to oppose the electoral count. Cruz and Hawley defied him. He needs to get them in line or get rid of them. He might even lead the Democrats into doing his dirty work for him by expelling them. People will hate the Democrats and, Mitch will still bel the hero of middle of the road traditional Republicans, I think he will deal with Schumer to keep his position as minority leader. relevant. I would guess as many people would like to see Mitch go as they would Nancy. He has to counter that. President Trump may well start his own party. It will split the Republicans. But of th e75 million who voted for Trump, not all will follow him into a Patriot Party. If Mitch can pitch the party of the middle, some folks who are tired of extremes on both sides might com back to the Republicans. I guess we will see. Meanwhile, I think Donald Trump is in something of a decline both mentally and physically. I think the next four years will be hard on him. I am not sure he can rise to the occasion in 2024. The Patriot Party may still be around but they will need to break away from Trump control or they will be a fringe group tilting at windmills. If they succeed in establishing an independent identity they may become a viable third party. Don Jr., Eric, and Ivanka may want to use them but the kids just don't have the same talents as their dad. Donald Trump was a smart guy in many ways but he bred for flashy looks and big breasts. That may help Ivanka, but Don Jr. and Eric have their mother's intelligence and none of her assets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
