Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) promoted Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) to Republican leadership as the North Carolina senator has continued to strike deals with Democrats.
The Washington Post wrote a glowing piece on Tillis’s newfound status as a bipartisan dealmaker. Republicans and Democrats across the Senate praised his ability to strike compromises to pass legislation that would advance President Joe Biden’s priorities.

Oligarchy rewards their own.
What bipartisan bills has Tillis supported? specifically? and with whon on the Democratic side did he pardner?
And you thought they were working for you when actually it was Joe Biden that they work to please.
“Republicans and Democrats across the Senate praised his ability to strike compromises to pass legislation that would advance President Joe Biden’s priorities.”
Willful ignorance of subversion and conspiracy is just as complicit as being directly involved in the subversion and conspiracy.

NC is almost 1/4 black and clearly a purple state. No surprise that Tillis is middle-of-the-road. He won in 2020 by <2%.

and the cities are almost half black which, along with the white liberals, make the cities dark blue.
“NC is almost 1/4 black and clearly a purple state. No surprise that Tillis is middle-of-the-road. He won in 2020 by <2%.”
The only reason Tillis won in 2020 was his Democrat opponent Cal Cunningham self destructed when it was revealed he was having an extramarital affair. Until that moment Cunningham was leading Tillis in the polls and favored to win.
Next time out Tillis will be begging for votes from the conservative GOP base that now hates him for his treachery. Demographics (liberals moving from the north, baby boomer conservative deaths, and rising numbers of minorities) will make the state even more purple by 2026 when Tillis faces the voters again.

And, unlike Tillis, he lacked the advantage of incumbency. Meanwhile, Tillis is at 68%, only a hair north of Dick Burr’s 61%.

Mitch has Slipped the Republican Mask he used to wear.....he is just now and OUT & OUT DEMONCRAT!
“My impression about Tillis is that he has negative charisma, and his messaging is the opposite of skillful. “
Prior to being elected to the US Senate, Thom Tillis served as speaker of the North Carolina House. Prior to his political career Tillis worked in middle management for a number of corporations, the last being IBM.
Running for Senate he was the candidate of the GOP party establishment in NC. From Wikipedia regarding him gaining the GOP nomination in 2014 - “ On May 6, he won the nomination with 45.68% of the vote over Greg Brannon and Mark Harris, described as a victory for the Republican establishment over the insurgent Tea Party movement.”
Tillis did not enter politics a wealthy man so he is like many Republican establishment politicians a servant of the donor class and beholden to Mitch McConnell who controls party funds for Senate campaigns.
