[Kaslin]

I don’t want anyone do a repeat of the 2006 election when so many on our side stayed at home because they wanted to teach the GOP a lesson.

[ilovesarah2012]

Yeah - like they did for Obamacare.

[SuperLuminal]

The Senates’ equivalent of SCOTUS’ Ginsburg!

[Jim Robinson]

No fight in this turtle at all. Some “leader.”

[BobL]

Not to mention losing the White House too.

...oh wait, that was his prediction in 2016.

[goodnesswins]

Yes...and “usually” a guy with NO POLITICAL JOB EXPERIENCE does NOT become President.

[Monorprise]

Unfortunately given his behavior during the Roy Moore election in Alabama I’m not sure he wants to be majority leader.

The Republicans better pick up some Senate seats because the math will be against them in 2020 and 2022. If the Dems win back the Senate in 2020, you can forget about good conservatives being confirmed for judges.

[Kaslin]

Unfortunately he is not up for reelection. The Republicans need to find someone else for Majority leader who does away with the 60 majority vote, unless we can win enough seats from the rats so we would have the super majority.

[SaveFerris]

Yes, the far-lefties are truly an insane lot.

I see them every time I go for my Yahoo mail (I have to look).

They are nuts. Absolutely, totally freaking nuts.

I’m surprised they don’t burst into flame.

But then, I’m surprised Hillary’s pantsuits didn’t catch on fire 100x.

[t4texas]

Plus it makes it a hell of a lot easier to impersonate a man with a job.

[Kaslin]

Indeed.

[Electric Graffiti]

When you realize that only a handful of congressional repubikans in D.C. actually voted for Trump in 2016, then you’ll understand how irreparably FUBARed ‘our’ fed govt is.

[NutsOnYew]

Yeah - like they did for Obamacare.

Exactly.

[faithhopecharity]

Of course R’s will lose seats. Partly because of McConnell and a few more like McShame & Lindsay, Flake, Collins, Romney, Bush, Kaysuck of Ohio, etc.

Most folks look at these types and want to throw up

[LeoTDB69]

Ah, the old turtle with the perpetual “L” on his forehead.

[Architect of Avalon]

McConnell WANTS TO LOSE SEATS.

[SoFloFreeper]

Set the expectations low. Then everyone will be surprised when things are better.

Turtle man knows the base hates him. He also knows we are motivated to win bigly.

Relax folks. If Mitch were the political genius he thinks he is, Trump wouldn't be President right now.

[DoodleDawg]

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) says in a new interview that he expects to see GOP majorities in the House and Senate shrink in November as a result of the 2018 midterms

If the GOP majority in the Senate shrinks by two it's Minority Leader McConnell.
