Ari Melber: McConnell Said Trump Did It Despite Voting Not Guilty | MSNBC
So sad for america… this leaves the door open for all future elections to degrade into civil war with ZERO consequences. America’s transformation is complete.
@DT Major You do know they had over 60 court cases and Trump’s lawyers failed to provide any real evidence of widespread voter fraud. Also 43 to 57 is not a win. Even Mitch McConnell thinks Trump lost the election and incited the attack on the capital. I hope this goes to court because Trump will be toast.

Consequences for the “2” America has won with the truth exposed with Videos.
Yeh, these Republicans were glad they had Trump’s army on their side, how sick is that?
The people that were involved are facing consequences……
McConnell you are on the wrong side of history.
He don’t care. When old age takes him (hopefully soon) he will do that evil chuckle as he fades from life, satisfied he hurt people and got his.
Your honor, I robbed that bank and killed 5 people. But that was back in January and this is February. Besides, I rigged the jury, so I’m innocent
He is disgusting a flop flipper and the worst kind!
Trump Train rolls over FAKE NEWS, yet again….CHOO CHOO!!
They all are.
It’s disgraceful.
Scientists have shown that shame is not an emotion normally experienced by turtles.
Lol
Do not insult turtles.
Absolutely, the Videos exposed them all.
@Viva LaMinion ..i agree ..i especially admire turtles ..
i shutter to think that mitch will be admired for his calm steady cruel obstructionist grim-reaper accomplishments
Funny but I think even a turtle is more capable of feeling shame or any other emotion than Moscow Mitch. Except greed. That’s something mitch can feel.
Southern District New York…handle this.
The voters and the courts are going to have to do what the GOP is too cowardly or too corrupt to do.
The DESPICABLE GOP Corn Hole LICKERS 👅. Doing their LICKING BEST. So as it Stands, the Tangerine Wanker will be Dealt with FROM Real Seekers of JUSTICE. 🏛
I hope NY and Georgia nails his a@#
Bingo, nail Trump!

Wtf Moscow mitch talking about if his guilty why acquited him I’m confused you can’t have it both way mitch
That’s the way those Evil Republikkkans roll!! The whole world is going to suffer at the hands of the racist Republikkkan Party!!!!
McConnell can’t have it both ways, He just wants to cove up His cawerdness —So the American People doesn’t hold him responsible for His lock of leadership
Mitch says Trump did it which is why it pains me to vote for acquittal. Dysfunctional party.
@Soul Sista VOTE DEMOCRATS 2022 and 2024……..
@The Blade DYSFUNCTIONAL INDEED…
He started all this right along trump

On this side of the Atlantic, us Brits are shaking our heads in disbelief and sadness. It was nice knowing you, America. Goodbye.
ok
@SkyGemini ruthless as ever I see. What’s up, SkyGemini? LMAO!!!
David Webber, you sir are absolutely correct in shaking your head in disbelief and this will be our undoing, shame 1/2 our country is obliviously welcoming a banana republic because cognitive dissonance is hard and personal responsibility no longer exists here.
It’s a travesty that Trump was acquitted. However all of us non Americans should not be so quick to pass judgment and declare that America is finished. The United States has been our best trading partner and friend despite what our politicians may disagree on. No nation is perfect and I hope our neighbors to the south realize that you are appreciated despite all the negativity. 🍻 From 🇨🇦
On our side the Atlantic the majority of Americans are doing the same thing.
Well America. Your Senators just voted for chaos.
@Hoanglong Le They are also mass stupid spreaders.
@Lesley Edgley Trump Train rolls over FAKE NEWS, yet again….CHOO CHOO!!
@Doc Robinson Yes, where all that is required is a simple majority! Article 14?
@RivaledDarkness1 they have no idea what they are talking about.trump ran for president because he knows we as a country and hard working people have been getting the shaft every minute of the day.GOD BLESS that man he knows.
@Dennis Vance Actually, Trump ran for President for himself and his businesses. He said so in an interview he did with Time magazine approximately 6 years ago. He was quoted as saying “I wanted to do this for myself. I didn’t want to look back in ten years and say I could have done that, or I could have done that.” His running had nothing to do with the struggles. He only stayed that as rhetoric and used it as a type of mongering to a base that felt like they were being shafted. Granted, Americans (myself included) have a lot of divisive qualities, but none of them were part of Trump’s reason for running.
Mitch knows a lot about digging graves with one foot in.. his life will be mocked and despised forever.

Moscow Mitch, Moscow Mitch, Moscow Mitch
Doesn’t bother him at all. Never has.
This is the greatest clown show ever. When they read America’s obituary, it will be title “Suicide by Corruption”
Correct 😃 hope that turtle show won’t last
@Butterfly D This Is Just The dress Rehearsal For The Real Trials To Come – IT IS JUST THE BEGINNING !
@Brian Nave You Sound Angry, I Was Too ! See Glenn Kirschner & Calm Down !
@Butterfly D they are the Terrorists that attacked us .
@Brian Nave no one trust Brietbart except Trump humpers
McConnell is useless. And that’s all the energy I’m wasting on him.
@Gene Stewart AMEN THIS RECKONING HAS JUST BEGUN. REPUBLICANS NEED TO BUCKLE YOUR SEAT BELTS. 47 OF YOUR SENATORS HAVE A LOT OF EXPLAINING TO DO. AND OH, THAT OLD 1ST AMENDMENT CONSTITUTIONAL CRAP ANIAT GONNA WORK.
@gary avona I truly believe it’s a strategy to say to the republicans that they have lost to Trump that we did not convict Trump, while calling for him to be as a citizen. He knows by the time he runs for reelection they will have forgotten that he has called for him to be charged as a citizen. Mitch has been in this game for a long time. Trump played checkers and Mitch is playing chess…. If he gets Trump indicted as a citizen he doesn’t take the blame. Therefore, he rids the crazy in the party and keeps the republican voters. Checkmate!

@Richard Barber Trump Train rolls over FAKE NEWS, yet again….CHOO CHOO!!
that’s even too much for an inhuman turtle
It’s almost as if McConnell is lower than the lowest.
Lindsey Grandma may have something to say about that. LoL 😆😆
@Richard Andrew Crosby
Yeah, Lindsay Graham too!!!
Turtles don’t fly. Even snakes go higher than turtles.
Him and Ted Crud….the guy with the ugly wife….so Trump says.

This is just how messed up America is! McConnell wants it on the record that he believes Trump incited the violence but would not vote against him during the Impeachment! Mitch is trying to save himself–Bonnie Robinson
@wee huddy They are so stupid. It’s making my butt itch.
oh-many-more-patriots-will-storm-the-capitol-next-time,-in-my-opinion-and-they-will=probably-be-armed.
He might be trying to save the country from a bloody civil war.
what kind of people do you vote for ?? They are so messed up, say one thing and the next day, do another thing….sham shame
Mitch wants to have his cake and eat it, too. What a depressing state of affairs. This is the kind of person who would stand in the middle of the road and say he is moving both directions to avoid trucks hitting him from both ways.
Some dirty agreements have been made behind closed doors, such is the level of disgustingly low standards that American politicians hold themselves to.
No deals just truth exposed in the videos.

@nana Aragrev And who are the others?
ALSO NO INTEGRITY
Devious, don’t tell me he didn’t think of this defence when he delayed the process.
McConnell is on the back end of his life since he’s 1000 years old he doesn’t care about his legacy
What he’s saying: “He did it, I don’t care and what are you going to do about it?”
Greatest German leader got born from depression.
Happy day.
They each broke their oath of office with their not guilty vote.
Any government official can be impeached. That’s not reserved just for the President.
Loss is loss. Lies won. Lies rule. “Democracy” died today.
ABSOLUTELY. Democracy is dead now. This sinking America cannot interfere/criticize with the democracy of other countries now.
@Yanni P well there are still grand juries being gathered..so the criminal prosecution is still there. It gives the Republicans no credible world voice, but the Democrats still engage and support all allies, not just Israel. Certainly Russia and China are still nothing compared to even an injured democracy. Guess what, my family represents most religions, parties, and military branches, “the rumors of our demise are greatly exaggerated”. The Republicans are on the verge of becoming three different parties. Even Trump wants to create one…a wet dream for Dems.
😞
Nothing but truth was exposed on videos, Democracy has been saved
It’s sad but I think you’re right.
Australia will always remember with fondness the integrity of of the American’s… it’s a shame the Republican Party has killed it…😳
The senators who voted to convict deserve to be rewarded with “Profiles in Courage.” That is unprecedented!
