The senate isn’t going to accept these illegitimate and unacceptable articles of Impeachment. He said as much this morning.
McConnell could have said that they won’t accept the articles or under what conditions he would. He didn’t. Now why could that be? Because he plans on accepting them. But only after allowing the Dems to gaslight in the media on process for weeks.
McConnell did exactly what you said he didn’t do. It’s obvious that you didn’t see or read what he said.
