The problem is those he's bringing in are voters McConnell and the Republican establishment loath.
You are quite correct. I've written multiple times around here that starting in 1976 when he challenged Gerry Ford for the nomination, the GOPe hated Reagan and hated his supporters, and it hasn't abated one iota since whether it's been the Tea Party or now Trump and MAGA.
The GOPe believe that Reagan literally and figuratively ruined their party. They had safe seats and all the pork and hookers they could want in exchange for being the loyal and acquiescent opposition, and Ronaldus Magnus wrecked all that by inspiring Republicans to win instead of just going along to get along. It's about the only thing that they GOPe have been right about.
Trump and Reagan both put citizens, the base and the country first.
The last thing the establishment of either party wants is representative republic where the politicians are serving the people.
He's sticking around to undermine Trump if Trump wins the election.
The RINOs are irrelevant now. See Liz Cheney, she has to grovel to Democrats now.
And then they imposed the “poison pill” that was George Bush on Reagan.
Yes, they favored the likes of the genteel George Bush, whom they stuck him with as the designated RINO VP. They considered Reagan a course upstart without without the experience or temperament to be President. All the same things with Trump. But back then they were far less willing to openly thwart him and support a stealth coup by joining with the dems behind the scenes to undermine him, block him, and investigate him relentlessly like they did with Trump.
Poison for sure.
Understood...

So any ideas on who will be the next GOP Senate Laader?
I'd prefer Ted Cruz or Rand Paul.
My guess, though, is that it will be Rick Scott.
“I’m still a Traditional Republican”
Mc Connell is only a traditional Republican is traditional Republicans are Rinos and part of the deep state because that is what he is. He has done extensive damage to the Republican Party and was a road block to Trump when he was president. He is also why we don’t have real conservatives on the Supreme Court — with the exception of two.
Mitch McConnell good old boy club president.
Let the deals happen $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
It’s why they want to dump him ASAP.
MAGA movement is completely wrong
We can always hope that the Grim Reaper finally pays Mitch a visit.
You know, it’s a real shame he turned down the offer from r a ride home from his sister in law.
He is still a traditional Republican so long as one recognizes the Republican tradition of being the Stupid Party. He certainly personifies that tradition.
He loathes something or he is loath to do something.
It will likely be a Turtle understudy.
