The Turtle, Mitch McConnell, is perhaps the most unpopular American politician in the country at present. Yet, he won the job of Republican Senate leader 37-10 with one abstention. This RINO won, and won big, despite sabotaging Republican chances in AZ and AK, NH, and probably somewhere else that I am missing. How did he do that? Many have noted that the Turtle controls the money for Republican Senate candidates. That is the simple answer. Well, Trump also controls large sums of political money. Trump is more than capable of supporting MAGA Senate candidates, and holding rallies, which may be more useful than McConnell's money.
McConnell has more political support than his poll numbers warrant. So why is McConnell still so powerful while being so unpopular? Could it be that McConnell protects RINOs from Dem election fraud, and that crossing McConnell results in an end to such protection? In a land ruled by massive election fraud, why should anyone think differently?
Huh?
Rush Limbaugh came out against Mitch in one of his last shows. Shame on the GOP for voting for Mitch. It is the same with Karl Rove, who still is on Fox News.
The GOPe just proved how out of touch they truly are with the people.
No $$$ for the GOP until McTurtle is removed...none.
While I think Mitch should go for a lot of reasons, one thing everyone here needs to remember is that Mitch has been the person responsible for getting hundreds of Federal judges confirmed. That legacy has already changed the political landscape of the nation.
While some Pols have been tied to China, Mitch married into the “family”. His wife has considerable power also. I still don’t understand how a foreign born can rise to political power of ANY KIND in this country. They shouldn’t even be able to work in a government office as a volunteer. Some things are better done by those who love this country AS FOUNDED. Do they not conduct background investigations anymore, and look for communists or foreign spies, along with people with another being growing on their necks?
Trump called her Coco Chow, and this is what USA today said about that speech.
‘DEATH WISH’? What Trump and his wannabes did in one weekend should scare us all.
Trump says Mitch McConnell has a ‘DEATH WISH.’ Greene says Democrats ‘want Republicans dead.’ This is no longer a political party. It’s a sickening dangerous cult.
So I guess Chinks are now above criticism, maybe above homosexual and lesbian trannies with one eye, who have the blessing of being half black.half Chai nah thing.
McConnell didn’t run in this cycle, he was just reelected in 2020 with the Bigger steal. The latest of course being the stealth steal.
“She’s suffering an agonizing, slow loss, just like Cari Lake in Arizona. Unfortunately.”
NO, she has announced victory. She leads with all the votes in but has to go through a recount.
He doesn’t need money from us poor slob trash. He’s got billionaires and big tech funds to use for or against whoever he deems fit.
He is a political money manager. His marching orders are to keep the GOP in line. If someone steps out of line, unless you’re Mormon like Andy Biggs, McConnell will withhold or withdraw campaign funds, and might bring in a new compliant candidate who will run massive attack ads full of lies.
The email, text, postal mail marketing asking us for $20, $50, $100 to GOP this and that are mostly individuals raking in cash for themselves while election season is hot.
The Gop does care about you... lobbyists yes, you.. not so much
Elaine Chao entered the US government during the Reagan Administration...
I will add the collusion of the NH Republicant Party by running upChuck Morse, withholding holding money, whisper campaigns at the State House... zero support for Bolduc.. he wasn’t their boy..
Along with the open primaries and doing very little with allow out of State college students to vote which impacts the results significantly in NH due to the population size.
The uniparty is alive and well in NH.
McTurtle is an international cash machine.
You know all that fundraising politicians have to do, but many of them bitch about.
“McConnell loves that crap & is good at it.”
I don’t like him, but he’s not “changing his colors” at this point in his life.
EXACTLY!
BIGLY!
Elizabeth China.
Like Trump?
No, the source of his power is campaign cash and leadership positions. Rick Scott is learning this lesson now.
When “your own” judges are telling you that your case is full of shit…instead of calling the judges crooked…maybe you should take a look at your lawyers and the case you are bringing.
That’s the part that makes me laugh. People whine about these rulings because they don’t go their way. But in reality, if you are found not to have standing, that is a first year law student thing. Lawyers getting “dinged” on that are essentially being told, “You don’t know what you are doing.”
No, the source of his power is campaign cash and leadership positions. Rick Scott is learning this lesson now.
Opposing the Turtle won’t hurt Scott in FL in 2024. It might actually help him. Since FL secured its elections from the usual Dem fraud, his opposition supports the answer that the Turtle is blackmailing people with Dem fraud if he is crossed.
You’re right, it just hurts him within the country club, I mean senate.
