9. America was in danger in 2016 when Trump ran

Mitch did nothing to stop him. America was in danger when Trump was president. Mitch did nothing to stop him. America was in danger when Trump incited an insurrection in 2021. Mitch did nothing. America was in danger with Trump as a candidate in 2024. Mitch did nothing.

Fact is Mitch benefited from Trump in every case. He expected Dems to take him down and saw a win-win. He and the GOP would blame Dems and ride the wave to more GOP wins.

One has to wonder if Mitch’s personal wealth may be at risk. No way on earth he is finally seeing the light.

Note: I posted this in another thread on Mitch as well.
