Mitch McConnell isn’t a “turtle.” He’s a RINO. A dying RINO, who will do anything he can to hold on to power, even if that means sabotaging Republicans. And yes, that’s exactly what Mitch is doing right now. He’s fighting tooth and nail against two America First candidates, Kelly Tshibaka out of Alaska and Blake Masters out of Arizona. And the reason why he’s feverishly trying to stop both is because each one of these candidates has vowed NOT to support him as Senate Majority or Minority Leader next session.

Both Masters and Tshibaka have pledged not to support McConnell for another term in GOP leadership.
If we don’t get rid of saboteurs like Mitch McConnell, and I am sorry, but Kevin McCarthy, too, then we will never win. Neither one of these men supports the America First Agenda, and just like last time, they will both work against our agenda behind the scenes. They will pull strings and call in favors and work with the left to make sure the MAGA agenda does not pass. And that’s because they are BOTH establishment Republicans — the old guard, and nothing — and I mean NOTHING will ever change that.
I am semi-confident that McConnell will not be a “leader” anymore, but I think McCarthy will likely be House Speaker. I wish President Trump didn’t trust him so much, I think he’s a bad guy, a sneaky guy, and a mole who will secretly work to sabotage MAGA every chance he gets.
But as it stands now, McConnell is destroying his political career. President Trump has been calling him out, and now Alaska is chiming in. I don’t think he can survive all of this pressure. And I hope he doesn’t. I can’t wait to say “good riddance”

Ding..Ding..Ding..
We have a winner..
You win the internet today!!!
The Republicans in Ohio’s 8th congressional district were idiots for inflicting this man (John Boehner) on the rest of the nation.
After Tennessee I don’t think the Tide could turn on anybody, not even China Mitchie.
If not Mitch, they will put Linda in. So no real change.
Just now??
Finally???
It’s wise not to trust McConnell, but it’s very unwise to underestimate the truly awesome amount of political power he holds. The Boner was a piker compared to Mitch McConnell.
And that unfortunately is a proven fact.
Two votes on the pub side won’t make any initial material difference. But in time the turtle will turn, and maybe sooner than later.
They don't like to overthrow current speakers unless it's a fete accompli, then they accept it.
“It’s wise not to trust McConnell, but it’s very unwise to underestimate the truly awesome amount of political power he holds.”
I don’t underestimate it at all. But I don’t want him wielding it anymore, because it has got to the point where his agenda is for his own benefit, and not for the benefit of the country.
Career politicians who spend their entire adult lives with their snouts in the public troughs. Once elected, they spend the rest of their careers jockeying for position and seeing how much wealth and power they can concentrate for themselves. They are so addicted to power that they contrive to stay in office well past the age when normal people retire to spend time with hobbies and family.
The citizens be damned. They only care about us at election time, which is when they go to the hinterlands to put on flannel shirts, get hunting licenses, visit state fairs and shops where they eat corn dogs and lick ice cream cones, all to show us that they are "regular people" just like you and I.
Except they are not.
McConnell is much worse than a Rino, he is a sabateur.
He puts self above country and any senator that supports him is guilty of the same.
Yep. John Thune would almost certainly be next up, followed by John Barrasso. John Cornyn might also be on the short list.
None seem like a great improvement over McConnell.
Imagine if we could get a maga in charge
That and a MAGA in the Speakers Chair in the House. I don’t want McConnell OR McCarthy in either position!!!!!Get Trump in the Speakership and cut this corrupt, America-destroying administration OUT!!!!!
Even if. There will always be Romney and collins to make it a zero sum game.
Sophie has the straight scoop on these two weasels: McConnell & McCarthy...
Both badly in need of replacement...
We really didn’t have a choice with Mitch the Chinese bitch. Rand is loved! Along with Massey in the House.
Sen. McDickead destroyed the TEA PArty and he is trying to do the same to the MAGA Movement. He is a f—king a-hole RINO MFer POS.
