@girlusocrazy: Case closed indeed. We all know McConnell is slithering along the line between the base and the broader electorate like the snake he is. All that matters is that this nonsense has ended.
The reason behind that is because Mitch knows the last ditch effort is doomed to fail the moment it approaches the Democrat-controlled Congress. Ontop of that, it puts the GOP in an awkward position to vote against Trump. There's no scenario where it succeeds and Mitch McConnell knows this. It would serve as nothing more than a loyalty test.
Trump and his cult have already turned on McConnell, and it seems that some House Republicans are joining in. This despite the fact that there's nothing to gain at this point, as there just aren't enough votes in either house of Congress to mount a successful challenge.
We may finally be seeing a fissure that cannot be healed in the Republican party, as several in the House seem content to choose Trump over the people, something that McConnell, to his credit (I think I just threw up in my mouth a little) seems to dread in the Senate.
Elsewhere, Trump seems to be focusing on only the most loyal sycophants for his pardon push, but is otherwise losing his mind and sinking deeper and deeper into denial. Seems that even the softest attempt to get Trump to accept reality will get you kicked right off the list.
@YukoAsho: What makes you think people on the right ever liked or trusted McConnel? Again, you fail to realize Trump was elected because he wasn't a Republican. There were plenty of establishment Republicans available to choose from in the 2016 primaries and the voters said "no" to all of them.

I live in Kentucky, and it was too confusing I saw two McDonalds names and so I just went for the longest one.
My b.
Aren't there some irregularities there with his election as well?
Not really. DC report did a piece on this, but it's mostly just conspiracy theories pointed the opposite direction of what we're used to. There's no hard proof of anything.
Yes he's literally the least popular senator in his home state, but when you factor in that Kentucky is one of the worst educated and financed states in the country coupled with the magic R, incumbent down-ballot bump, voter suppression efforts, and a very bland opponent, it's not hard to see how it went the way it did. Adding to that, he was polling way ahead for essentially the entire race.

Figured it was conspiracy theories. I only saw the headline.
Fox News is now making public retractions on their conspiracy bullsh*t as defamation and libel suits are coming their way. Just take a look at Lou Dobbs. His 'clarification' on his previous claims just shows how spineless these weasels really are. They fold once they're asked to repeat these lies in our court system under oath.

Which conspiracy theories are they not supporting anymore?
"(Reuters) - President Donald Trump’s campaign said on Sunday it would again ask the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn results from the Nov. 3 election, its latest long-shot effort to subvert the electoral process and sow doubt over the legitimacy of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory."

Everything out of Trump's mouth?
Wow.
I hear AG Barr see no reason to form a special council to investigate Hunter Biden. Surely he would have a special council if he believed it could lead ot something?

can't seem to take a hint.
Is double jeopardy not a thing with the SCOTUS? Or is that just criminal proceedings?
The court won't even hear it. I've a very hard time believing these actions by the Trump campaign are in any way done with the belief they'll succeed, it's just holding up a pretense to continue the grifting of their stupid, gullible delusional base who knows no better. This is nothing but a PR campaign exploiting the courts to grant them a semblance of legitimacy. I'm very surprised that they are not facing sanctions of some sort by the court for wasting everyone's time and money. Do the courts have no balls whatsoever? Ruling against them isn't enough, they need to hold these traitors and con men accountable in basic legal procedure lest they open themselves up to ligations in exploitation that are founded on no valid merit whatsoever in the future in the precedent they are allowing to be set.
@horgen: He's saying the existing investigation is getting the job done so it doesn't mean there's nothing to report on (the report may or may not conclude that any wrongdoing took place), but that they're already sufficiently equipped.
Thanks for explaining. All I came across was behind a paywall.
@ronaldreagan2: It's strange that Trump has sat on all of this evidence, and won't start releasing it until after Biden won the election, won all of the challenges to the election, and was confirmed as the next US President.
Odd choice, really. Every day he doesn't produce evidence, he just looks more and more like a pathetic schoolkid who doesn't know how to lose gracefully.

Sad thing is his base eats it up. None of them want to see the evidence.
@ronaldreagan2: You are not supposed to personally identify with a politician. Policies that personally affect you? Absolutely. But a politician? No. Political parties shouldn't be cults.
