Mitch McConnell, the Senate Republican leader, performed a literally incredible act of willful amnesia, forgetting and forgiving everything. In a tone of barely restrained anger after January 6, he had called for Trump’s prosecution for his responsibility for the attack on the Capitol. Trump called him a “dumb son of a bitch”, a “stone cold loser”, and his wife, Elaine Chao, a member of Trump’s cabinet as Secretary of Transportation, who quit in protest on January 6, his “China loving wife, Coco Chow!”

Now, walking out of his meeting with Trump, McConnell eked out a rigid semblance of a smile, as he said: “We shook hands a few times. He got a lot of standing ovations. It was an entirely positive meeting. I can’t think of anything to tell you out of it that was negative.”

Kamala Harris called Biden a racist in the primary debate in 2020 and yet she is VP....so?
 
Politics is the business of getting re-elected. They are trying to save their jobs. The Repubs who stood up to Trump are gone. You are not allowed your own ideas if they conflict with Trump's.
McConnell and Lindsey showed how far you can go. Eat your words and go against your values and If Trump has a use for you, you can be saved. Trump will always have the power over your career.

This is such a tiresome, lie filled narrative. Trump had NOTHING to do with the protests at the Capitol. He had NOTHING to do with the violence.

There never was an "insurrection" and it is retarded to call it one.

But what I find amusing is the same people who claimed the BLM violence was mostly peaceful now rant about "perceived" violence by others they disagree with.
