So I’m racking my brain trying to figure out how a coward like @senatemajldr was not flustered going into today’s session. Patriots kept saying this is the party of @realDonaldTrump & if McConnell and others don’t support President, they will lose their base and be voted out...
At first, I thought @senatemajldr didn’t really care about losing his base & the Senate. He used @realDonaldTrump for 4yrs and now he simply didn’t care if people turn on him for turning on President. But hearing him speak towards the end of the session today, it came to me...
The @senatemajldr was not flustered because he knew what would transpire today. He knew the decision @VP made before anyone else did, knew that most of his colleagues would not object, and he may have even known that the Capitol police would let protestors in to create chaos...
The last one sounds odd almost conspiracy theory but eyewitnesses said Capitol police moved out of the way & let people in even to the point *some* protestors thought it was okay to be inside. Then @senatemajldr comes back & calmly delivers speech that’s the nail in the coffin...
It was too quick, too easy. @senatemajldr wasn’t worried because he knew. He knew where Pence would land, where his colleagues would land, and may have even known how to manipulate the chaotic situation to link it to the man he has felt all along was a chaotic President...
Ironically, and to add insult to injury, Trump spent the last few days campaigning for two candidates about whom @senatemajldr did not even care, one of whom @KLoeffler turned on Trump, almost like she knew this was no longer the party of Trump. And after today, it isn’t...
And let’s be honest, Trump doesn’t care about Loeffler or Perdue. He did it because the Republicans asked him to. He did it for the establishment: the same establishment who had no problem stabbing him in the back today and joining the media in linking today’s tragedy to Trump...
It was a gangland style hit. Quick and easy. And everyone knew it was coming except Trump. And just like that, January 6 went from being his celebration to his funeral politically. As the character Charles Scorsese plays in Goodfellas says when Tommy is killed: “And that’s that.”
