"My people think it could have been a violation. I view it differently." He said Kim could be a man "who wants to get attention," but says there are no nuclear tests, long-range missiles being fired.

What a craven, smug, appalling and unpatriotic man. If Republicans claim another seat, the case for the Democrats to pack the Court becomes very hard to argue against. There have always been people like McConnell throughout history. People like that The Rock Bottom low point for judgment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
