Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and other Republicans on Sunday criticized their colleague Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who on Friday accused McConnell of lying about a deal to revive the Expot-Import Bank.
Cruz hit McConnell hard on Friday for allowing a vote on Ex-Im, which expired last month. But McConnell said there should be nothing wrong with having a vote on the issue.
"I don't see a reason why they shouldn't be allowed a debate and then a vote," the Republican leader said from the Senate floor. "When there is some overwhelming bipartisan support for an idea, even if I oppose it, it doesn't require some special deal to see a vote occur on that measure."

Alison Grimes was the lesser evil.
I’m old enough to remember when Republicans DIDN’T work for the destruction of America.
McConnell is an Establishment/Globalist Rat.
Why when we have trillions of debt would it be wrong to make us responsible for even trillions more, what could go wrong? We need to know our place obviously.
McConnell needs to be removed from the leadership position.
When stupidity slams intelligence you know the nation is in trouble.
You lied McConnell, and now you have your lyin’ RINO buddies at the podium lying for you on top of your own lies.
GFY
Who ever would have thought “The meaning of is” would become a political by-phrase?
The republicrat party is a dead man walking. Totally finished. It is irreparable with discord and conflict such that there shall be no reconciliation. They leave or we leave. Fight hard. We can restore the good name of the party but they must be expelled.
Excellent.
McConnell is an Establishment/Globalist Rat.

And a known liar.
Ted Cruz is too good to be in the Republican party.
We can restore the good name of the party but they must be expelled.

Trust me, I know people who worked inside the party and its not capable of being reformed. The culture of cronyism, political connections, and financing mechanisms are too deeply embedded in the party’s DNA for it to ever change. The GOP is a lost cause. Time for something fresh, energetic, and new.
Trump is the Bull in the China Shop that we need right now.
Cruz must fear the GOP-E like cons fear the Prison Sissy- after you have their way with them, they pull the shiv out of one of their orifices and then stick you when you’re asleep.
Between Hillary’s and McConnel’s lies it is readily apparent that both the DNC and GOP are fighting for the honor of killing off their own party
Greatest compliment you can get these days is to be slammed by Yertle and his gang.
They should have kept the moderately liberal Huddleston in 1984. McC is destructive, not just useless any more.
Trump is the Bull in the China Shop that we need right now.

Agree. He may be bombastic and brash, but we are not going to solve big problem with an apologist at the helm. Just cleaning out the infestation in the federal bureaucracy is going to be a monument job that is going to create a lot of enemies. We need a take charge type of guy who will hold people accountable and produce results. Someone who says what he means, and means what he says. That’s how you turn things around.
