WASHINGTON - U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday delivered a scathing attack on fellow Republicans who were challenging Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory, saying it could do great harm to America. At the start of debate on certifying the Electoral College result, McConnell said: “We cannot simply declare ourselves a national board of election on steroids.” McConnell added, “The voters, courts, states, they’ve all spoken. If we overrule them it would damage our republic forever.”

Awesome job Mitch. I don't often agree with you but, you showed today your true allegiance & loyalty to The United States of America not Donald Trump.

It’s a little late after the damage he allowed to happen

Meanwhile Cruz defends the man who insulted his family.

Wow, McConnell doing the right thing, finally.

the guy's a fool if he thinks the damage has not been done, and he's at fault himself for allowing elections in such conditions in such a context.

Be patient my bet is trump believes his delusions and on 12021 he will commit open sedition and be arrested

Better late than never I suppose. I hope every single member of Congress who is going along with trumps ludicrous, unfounded allegations is kicked out of congress. They will lose next time. I’ll make it my mission to get the word out!

Republicans doing what they can do save the party from the Trumplican party.
