Mitch admits he was wrong??- Miracles do happen, pigs do fly

[packman]

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Thursday that he was wrong to claim former President Barack Obama didn’t leave a “game plan” to deal with a pandemic when he left the White House to President Donald Trump.

“I was wrong,” McConnell told Fox News’ Bret Baier. “They did leave behind a plan, so I clearly made a mistake in that regard. As to whether or not the plan was followed, or who’s the critic and all the rest, I don’t have any observation about that because I don’t know enough about the details.”


.... In other words (embolden words) Trump screwed up, but I'm not going to say it.... But, I just knew Obama screwed up because I didn't have the details, but what the hell - It's Obama

1. Does this seem to anyone else like a crack in the "support Donny Bodybags no matter

what weird shit he pulls" wall?

And coming from Moscow Mitch, is this a signal?

One can hope, right?

8. I think more of: " I want to get re-elected."

“But the voters didn’t like me blaming Obama. Oops.”

2. Mitch was just repeating the WH line because that's what he does,

probably assuming he could get away with it and stay in Fat Nixon's good graces; but he couldn't ignore the existence of Obama's comprehensive plan (which he almost certainly did know about already) when the news covered it, so then he had to backtrack and acknowledge it, but also pretend he didn't know what was in it so Trump wouldn't be mad and tweet mean things about him.

3. Moscow Mitch really doesn't like to trend on Twitter

He's more thin-skinned than he pretends to be.

9. Exactly this.

4. He should resign.

No text needed.

5. he said he made a mistake...

NO... he lied!

[The Blue Flower]

7. And he is still lying

such bs

[House of Roberts]

6. Obama didn't merely leave a plan.

He left a team of experts in place, and Trump fired them.

Then Trump sold all the PPE to China, claimed 'the cupboard was bare', when he had three years to fill the cupboard.
