Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell tells "Face the Nation" that he stands by "everything" he said in the days and weeks after the Jan. 6 attack about former President Donald Trump's actions related to that day. "Obviously, it'll be up to the Supreme Court to decide whether I was correct," McConnell said.

They should have removed him after he was impeached and then we would not be in this huge mess.

McConnell is the REASON we still have to contend with Trump today! Had he been impeached the first and second time by McConnell Trump would have gone away for good and what a relief for America. His decisions have really hurt this country and he damn well knows it!

What is the point of the Senate if a former president is going to dictate the senate?! Mind blowing.

McConnell told top advisers, “The Democrats are going to take care of the son of a b---- for us,” after it became clear that Democrats were going to impeach Trump in the House, adding, “if this isn’t impeachable, I don’t know what is.” - Politico | April 21st, 2022

He's the one who packed the court with judges who seem poised to make exceptions for Trump. Spare me what he says.
