Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has labored mightily to avoid criticizing President Trump, but two weeks into the new administration, its getting harder to downplay their differences.
On Sunday, McConnell told CNN he disagreed with Trumps view of Russian President Vladimir Putin, questioned the presidents claim of massive voter fraud in the 2016 presidential election and cautioned against the administration going too far with restrictions on travel from predominantly Muslim countries.

McConnell, leadership... two words that don’t belong together.
He’s ticking off his wife’s boss.
Hey Hey Ho Ho, Grandma McConnell has to go
The US Chamber of Commerce and the Business Roundtable placed McConnell in his leadership position.
The GOPe Republicans are simply being faithful and diligent employees for their employer.
Of course, Mitch McConnell was one of the biggest cheerleaders of the Islamist Chechen jihadis during the 98-99 war. These jihadis were lead by Amir Khattab, a Jordanian Al Qaeda associate. This and the support for KLA in Kosovo woke me up to how deranged (demonic) the globalists are.
His next election isn’t until 2020, so we’re stuck with him for awhile. That’s the thanks Trump gets for picking his wife for his cabinet, though.
McConnell and Ryan....both trying these last few days to “distance themselves” from our new President
is THIS the proper kind of behavior for republican party leaders to take with our new republican president?
YES, they have a right to disagree with anything any president says or does. BUT right at the START of the new president’s term... and before President Trump has had an opportunity to even get his staff on board......or do very much at all yet.....(yes, I know he has issued several good orders, but even at that... he’s only been in office a very few days and hasn’t yet made any serious visible mistakes in that extremely short time).......so, for R politicians to keep trying to “distance themselves” from President Trump...
is very worrisome. It appears these “republican leaders’ are not on board with the American people’s choice of a new president...........................by comparison, the republican leadership rubber=stamped almost all of the extremely radical (and ineligible!) previous president’s appointments and actions in that man’s first few weeks
It appears that McConnell and Ryan need to step aside, or be replaced by R leaders that are more willing to give our new president a fair chance before trying to “distance themselves” from him...or undercut what he is trying to do, imho
‘Twas a very short honeymoon.
>His next election isnt until 2020, so were stuck with him for awhile. Thats the thanks Trump gets for picking his wife for his cabinet, though.
Trump punishes disloyalty.
Bitch doesn’t want to nuke Schumer.....
He’s playing to the Gorsuch fence-sitters in the Senate, at least I would like to think so. He did however, hold the confirmation open since the death of Scalia.
That said, I wish there was a way to reach certain Senators and apply the heat to them:
************************************************
AMENDMENT XXVIII (’State Enfranchisement’)
To preserve suffrage and restore effective enfranchisement of State Legislatures to Congress, the following amendment is proposed:
************************************************
Section 1.
A Senator in Congress shall be subject to recall by their respective state legislature or by voter referendum in their respective state.
Section 2.
Term limits for Senators in Congress shall be set by vote in their respective state legislatures but in no case shall be set less than twelve years nor more than eighteen years.
Section 3:
The seventeenth article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby repealed.
************************************************
He can be in Congress, just not in a leadership position. Republicans need to get a clue.
So let me see if I have this right—McTurtle thinks he can undercut Trump and, at the same time, hold and increase the GOP Senate majority in 2018?
He should ask Chuck Schumer about plans going awry.
I suggest that we flood McConnell and Ryan’s twitter, email, Facebook, office with the message to get with the program or get out.
If it weren’t for Trump they would not have this mandate. Hannity, Limbaugh, Levin, ingraham need to help.
Tomorrow I will contact all.
To speak a word in jellyfish McConnells favor, he is only slightly less spineless than weasel Paul Ryan,
Both are as clueless as CNN to understanding just how it was that President Trump won, its as much of a mystery for them as an MSNBC anchor,
How is it that Republicans always stand up these same NWO globalists types whose default behavior is to preemptively surrender to any reprobate Democrat position coming up before Congress. The answer of course is because they believe just like them,
If the President has any legal coercive mechanism to rid us of these disloyal snakes, he should take it,
Typical leftist divide and conquer. McConnell was — foolishly — quibbling around the edges of what Trump is doing, giving CNN an opening to claim that he is shunning Trump.
McConnell is worthless.
