Summary

Sen. Mitch McConnell warned that Donald Trump’s presidency places Americans in a “very, very dangerous world,” likening Trump’s isolationist policies to pre-World War II “America First” rhetoric.

McConnell, a staunch interventionist, criticized the GOP’s growing resistance to U.S. global engagement, particularly Trump’s stance on reducing aid to Ukraine.

While he voted for Trump in November, McConnell expressed concerns over Trump’s influence and the party’s direction.

Recently stepping down as Senate GOP leader, McConnell plans to focus his final term on countering isolationism within his party.

    Yep, this fucking coward could’ve gotten enough of the gop on board with impeachment after j6, and it would’ve solved the orange shitstain problem. He knew he was at the end of his career and plenty of his party hate Dump privately. Just from a pragmatic standpoint (bc it’s not like the gop is any better than the gqp) it was the smart move, but he couldn’t gird his loins for even a second in his long career as a POS.
