McConnell blasts Dems handling of impeachment

NY Post:

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday slammed President Trump’s impeachment as the “most rushed, least thorough and most unfair” in modern history — and accused Democrats of being “too afraid” to send the articles to the Senate for trial.

The Republican leader took to the Senate floor to lay into Wednesday’s historic vote, calling it the “first purely partisan presidential impeachment since the wake of the Civil War.”

Calling the vote a “predetermined end of a partisan crusade that began even before President Trump was nominated,” he said the “rushed and rigged inquiry” was “poisoned” from the outset.

He also insisted the “historically low bar” of the accusations against the president would “invite the impeachment of every future president.”

He said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi admitting she was unsure when — or even if — the charges would be presented to the Senate was proof that the Democrats were “too afraid to even transmit their shoddy work.”

“She has failed the country,” McConnell said of the speaker.

By delaying the sending of the impeachment to the Senate the Democrats are admitting they have a weak case and they are trying to intimidate the senators to bet them to buy into their bogus coup attempt.
