Is Mitch McConnell Nuts?

 Around six weeks ago, Senator McConnell made a blunt statement....Trump was finished....Trump was not helpful....the party needs to move on....etc.  It was obvious then that the Kentucky Senator was finished with relations with Trump.

So in the past forty-eight hours....the same guy comes out and says he will support Trump in 2024 if he wins at the convention.  

Nuts?  On my humble scale....Mitch is somewhere around a 9-to-9.5 on the nuts scale.  

If Trump emerges in 2024 and wins at the convention....I expect Mitch to be one of about forty Republicans who are deemed as unhelpful and given zero access to Trump's inner circle.  

What really happened here?  I would suggest around fifty-percent of Republican Senators have been around DC so much.....that they really don't grasp what has occurred in the nation over the past forty years.  

These are people who need to pack up a camper, and spend six weeks traveling around the nation....getting a clear understanding of what changed, and how they (the Senators) no longer fit into reality.
