Here is Mitch McConnell today vomiting out an abridged version of Danielle Pletka's loathsome "Dirty Commie Liberals Are Forcing Me To Vote For Donald Trump" drivel from earlier this week, and warning that democracy will die of a fatal overdose of democracy if Joe Biden is elected:
MCCONNELL: "After they change the filibuster, they're going to admit the District as a state. They're going to admit Puerto Rico as a state. That's four new Democratic senators in perpetuity. Once they get a hammerlock on the Senate, they're going to then pack the Supreme Court."

Here is a brief excerpt from the 2016 Republican Party Platform:
The Territory of Puerto Rico
We support the right of the United States citizens of Puerto Rico to be admitted to the Union as a fully sovereign state. We further recognize the historic significance of the 2012 local referendum in which a 54 percent majority voted to end Puerto Rico’s current status as a U.S. territory, and 61 percent chose statehood over options for sovereign nationhood...
Short of marching down the middle of Pennsylvania Avenue in Klan robes screaming the "N" word --
-- the Republican Party could be any clearer about how deeply they hate and fear non-white American citizens.

Samantha Bee's segment using the movie Icons like Freddy Kruger, Jason and the scream dude is very much on analogy point. If you didn't see it and can use some comedy relief. Check it out.

And the Pemce top staffer who took tax payer salary and health care benefits to promote Pence's cover ups for the Donald all this time. Is not a liar because she is a disgruntled ex employee. Disgruntled employees are often telling the truth. Disgruntled doesn't assume a liar. The courts see this everyday in lawsuits and those lawsuits are of disgruntled opposing individuals and they win much of the time.
I do think she sees the internal polling and resigned to save her reputation. As if spending these years lying for them and performing rotten GOP crap in the name of GOP loyalty and in her own words of when she was in the room, "I should have been more honest, more outspoken on the issues in discussions".
In other words, she was a paid up and down bobble head. Her words, not mine.
Another one of Trump's best people become a disgruntled loser. As they should be. The Malania aid who is being blamed for some of the inaugural This Malania aid
financial corruption and who claims she recorded calls. Now more worried about her own reputation and wants everyone to buy her book about the woman (malania and family) that is using her as a fall guy for the crimes. It was fine when she wasn't the fall guy as she watched others abused and blamed and destroyed. See, It wouldn't happen to her and that is it.
"I never thought for a minute that Malania would hang me, Me!, out to hang like the others. I was sure we were best of friends and pals do not do this to pals", As long as she felt she was in with the family, it was Okay to poison everyone else with plutonium as Putin does because it won't happen to her.
This is what is in our government.
And if I remember correctly, they decided not to actually write a 2020 platform and just let the old one ride?
