Trump rant on McConnell at RNC was brutal, per attendee... trump...Me Me me

Trump rant on McConnell at RNC was brutal, per attendee. He took credit for Mr. McConnell's margin of win. "Did he ever say thank you to me? No. I hired his wife. Did he ever say thank you to me? No." He said he feels "sorry" for her, said, "She's suffered so greatly."

...and he knows that he needs to make Mitch McConnell irrelevant in order to do so.

He has a plan. Once again, it is "divide and conquer".

How long before he asks one of "his people" to challenge McConnell for Minority Leader in the Senate?

McConnell will feel the pressure. He will have no choice but to surrender to the Trump forces or fight to keep his leadership position. One guess is as good as another.

He's still trying to keep his grip on the party but gets more irrelevant every day as Joe Biden continues his impressive first 75 days of getting people vaccinated with money in their pockets.

Moscow Mitch has been playing Trump for his own advantage.

Yet you cannot count either one as the 'good guy' of the two.

fucking them up when he had to actually work at them. He usually walked away from the mess while claiming victory.

I suspect that a lot of people were surprised he managed to make it, sort of, through 4 years in the White house without totally fucking it up and running off. At least he got the fucking it up part right.

Anyway, This looks like his last gasp. It's really tough to believe too many people smart enough to make (or keep) a few millions can be taken in by this guy. Are many of them are just hanging around to see how much money and power sticks to their fingers? Is he actually being manipulated by the real smart guys for some nefarlous purpose?

Go find a different cesspit to wallow in for retweets, clicks, and shares.

And while you are at it, go fuck yourself for enabling this asshole for your own advancement! Preferably while in said cesspit.

Trump is full of BS. He is an idiot savant—with real estate being his only success, even after 7 bankruptcies. He is a loser and he is rapidly disappearing from the scene. No one gives a shit about what he says. Without a Twitter account he can’t spout his idiotic rhetoric anymore. He should be concerned more with his health. Covid-19 did damage to his heart and lungs, which is why those details were never released, and it could cause some serious problems for him in the future.
