Mitch McConnell Votes Against Pete Hegseth, JD Vance Breaks Senate Tie, President Trump Responds to News of McConnell’s Vote

The Conservative Tree House ^ | 25 Jan, 2025 | Sundance

Hegseth might upset the graft and kickback apple cart that many of the senators’ military contractor donors have going with the Pentagon as presently constituted. That’s all these no votes mean.

graft and kickback apple cart

The Forever War Club keeps the politicians plied with the underage hookers …..
and subsequently blackmails the politician for the rest of their life.

What an F’in POS. He knew he was going to be confirmed but wanted to be on record voting against him.

[LS]

We got the votes. Yertle, Tom Collins, MurKowSki will be nos on everyone. We will get all confirmed.

[dfwgator]

Even Tulsi?

[LS]

She and RFK will be the closest. I think they both get through.
Noem just got confirmed w 59.

Can’t-Carry-a-Thune is 4/4 so far. Biondi will be a safe vote. Kash close, but should get 52.

[dfwgator]

Fetterman I think will be Aye on Tulsi and RFK.

[MtnClimber]

He knew he was going to be confirmed but wanted to be on record voting against him.

He wanted to be on record siding with the evil of the father of lies.

[Bonemaker]

Garland not on Supreme court...3 Trump picks are.

[McGavin999]

Isn’t his term up in 26? He won’t give up power even if he has to be wheeled into the senate. Thune is doing a pretty good job but old Mitch betrayed him. Merkowski is the worst of the 3 and she is not up until 29.

[Wuli]

McConnell has sealed his legacy in political purgatory, doing his last acts of service to the remaining RINOs.

[MarDav]

Mitch will last 4 years…it’ll be fine

[TwelveOfTwenty]

Maine is too blue to go any further right than Collins, but Alaska and Kentucky should be able to do better.

[Varsity Flight]

Mitch McConnell, putting Americans last. ✖️

In that video at the site, Mitch looks like a lost Biden wandering around the room full of people, looking for someone to acknowledge him. I remember the 2022 video of Joe wandering around a room full of Democrats who were more interested in speaking to Obama than their own President. Biden followed Obama like a lost puppy, repeatedly trying to get Obama's attention, calling out to him, but Obama pretending not to hear him, continued on to the next group of people clamoring to greet him:

Literally no one wants to talk to Joe Biden

"Too bad he turned down a ride home from his SIL after their dinner party."

Sadly he wasn't there. The party was with her college friends that evening.

"If Kentucky's Democrat governor wants the seat, it's his."

That's not saying much for the people of Kentucky.

[Jim Noble]

“That’s not saying much for the people of Kentucky”

The only person from Kentucky I know is Raylan Givens - and he’s not real.

People voted for Trump - its true, he brought in a lot of Democrats, it won Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.

The real questions are, are those Democratic voters particular to Donald Trump, and what do those voters think of the GOP in general?

In my opinion, the answers are “yes” and “not much”.

The good news is, Trump and Vance have four years to rebrand the GOP to make it into a national force that attracts Democrats and uncommitted voters to form a new longlasting majority.

The bad news is, the foundation to build this on consists of Republicans - so it’s OK to worry.

[Night Hides Not]
