I dunno; he did pretty good with the Kavanaugh confirmation. It was close though due to the RINO's in the senate. Two of which are still there. Murkowski and Collins. The worst are gone though. Flake and Corker; especially Flake. He's the Mariana Trench of bad news leftism. Not deep; just low down.
He was beyond great on the judges sad he couldn’t be great on spending
yeah
I don’t care of he’s a NeverTrumper, the guy was AWESOME, and moved out at GREAT RISK, for us (i.e., Americans who didn’t want to lose the country) and for him.
We may not like some of his other stuff, but even there, I suspect that it is NOT HIM causing the problem.
Think about this, for example: Last year, when there were 51 Republican Senators, McConnell refused to change the rules to allow quick confirmation of Trump’s picks, particularly to the Courts (which now, I guess, run the country).
But was it really Mitch, or the herd of pigs he was trying to reign-in?
Answer: He now has 53 votes, and next week, according to news articles, this crap ends with a simple majority Senate vote.
And so, once Mitch got the votes, he ended the stalling. And no, my name isn’t Mrs. McConnell, nor any other Republican. Instead, I’m an OBSERVER, piecing together what I’m seeing.
Perhaps he figured Scalia was assassinated.
It is about the ONLY thing he has done right.
If he was, then one might ask “cui bono?”
Just in time for pResident Obama to appoint a gun-grabber before the elections start to develop. After putting in the Wise Latina and the ObamaScare Cheerleader.
Well, it’s very possible that it’s coincidence.
Or...
Sounds like he's getting ready to betray President Trump on the Wall.
Old bastige has to keep using this because otherwise he is a rotten failure and a goofy old backstabbing fool.
In back room somewhere in congress McConnell is saying “most consequential thing I’ve ever done was block Donald Trump”.
Umm... Bitch? That is the ONLY thing you have done worthy of a minor notation.
He had absolutely no power to do that - the Democrats had 60 seats in the Senate when it went through on the first vote, and the second vote was on reconciliation when they had 59 seats after Scott Brown won in MA. There is literally nothing he could have done...the entire GOP caucus voted against it both times but had literally zero power to stop anything.
