Senator Mitch McConnell used the Senate floor to brutally trash Donald Trump after the former president was found not guilty at the impeachment trial.
The speech was so unhinged that it could have just as easily came from Nancy Pelosi.
McConnell did not hold back as he ripped Trump apart for a âdisgraceful dereliction of dutyâ and attempting to âoverturn the election.â
He claimed that the protesters stormed the Capitol because they had been âfed wild falsehoods by the most powerful man on earth,â and that Trump was âpractically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day.â
âThereâs no question â none â that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day,â McConnell said.
McConnell went on to say that âthis was an intensifying crescendo of conspiracy theoriesâ by a president who seemed determined to overturn the will of the voters or âtorchâ institutions on the way out.
The anti-Trump Republican did vote ânot guiltyâ before giving the ridiculous speech.
