Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell suggested on Tuesday that President Donald Trump had lied about a conversation between them regarding the president's controversial call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Nancy Cordes, the chief congressional correspondent for CBS News, reported on Tuesday that she had pressed McConnell over Trump's assertion that the Republican from Kentucky had told him that his call with Ukraine's president was "perfect" and "innocent." McConnell responded to Cordes by claiming he had never spoken with Trump about the call.

When the journalist asked McConnell if that meant Trump had lied, the Republican lawmaker responded: "You'd have to ask him."

The Uniparty would like nothing better than to be rid of Trump and get back to business as usual, selling out the citizens and importing cheap labor.

This is all scripted, and I think you are correct.

I think this is a pretty clear indication of where the fisa report and barr/durham investigations are going, nowhare. They would not all be so brazen about this if anything was coming down the pike. We’ve been had again. I don’t see how the dems don’t run the table in 2020.

Lying liars who lie.“

Did you read the story and the quote

Mitch and the GOP establishment loves sheeple who stand up for them no matter how treacherous and self-dealing they are . That’s how they’ve gotten away with scamming the base for so long. Sheeple in the base will make excuses for GOP “leaders” like McCain, Romney and Mitch, and keep voting for them no matter how much they screw us

I am 100 percent confident you voted for McCain and Romney for president and defended them against all attacks.

It’s possible his team and Trump’s determined that this is the best strategy to head off any attempt to make McConnell recuse himself.

Mcstain and Romney were the least of two evils. Both scum but what else could we do?

I sware before mcstain picked Palin I was going to leave it blank.

Sometimes I wonder if the Rs want to lose elections. Romney, the only guy in the country to have created gubmint healthcare and that’s who the Rs run against odunga? WTH man?
