McConnell AGAIN acts as if controlled by cocaine and
his CCP-controlled wife and her odious drugs.

I’m convinced we need a younger more dynamic face and voice to o the leadership.


Well, we’ve got President Biden at age 78 Pelosi is 80, and Leahy is also 80, McConnell is 78. But on the bright side Kamala Harris is 56

anyone know what in particular prompted the tweet? Or is he just trying to flex muscle?

I am also curious. Haven't read that Hot Kirsten or Joey the Chin changed their minds, but it's not like Mitch to freak out like this.

Funny how “Senate rules” are more important than the Constitution to Senator Cocaine. (Not that the Dems are concerned with either.)

I think most GOP voters are a bit naive that they don’t know that Mitch shares most of their goals.

The only thing the repubs were focused on the 4 years was getting rid of Trump at all cost. That short shortsightedness has left them with the “at all cost” results. We are all at the whim of the dems and msm with absolutely no recourse. And in the dems first legislative priorities are corrupting elections permanently in favor of dems and identifying anyone that objects as a domestic terrorist. We are in a very bad way now, thanks to these republicans. But don’t worry, they will blame Trump and many will walk in lockstep with them.

Didn’t Lin Wood and many people say that it made NO DIFFERENCE if the Democrats won Georgia? If so, why get worked up here?

My own theory FWIW..

The Manchin and Sinema claims were lies. Schumer got them to make statements via the press that they were “not open” to killing the filibuster, so that McConnell would quit blocking the “power sharing” agreement that up to that point he’d been blocking.

Once Schumer got McConnell to no longer block the power sharing agreement, the “real” story started to come out.

The Dems are gonna start CW2 if they try this. The Filibuster has existed since the early 1800s for a reason - so that one party can’t go to crazy extremes with nutso legislation. But it’s pretty clear that’s exactly what the Dems want - the most extreme things this country has EVER seen.

The problem as I see it is that Mitch has given away what little power he did have - and now is holding a hand of 2s and 3s while the Dems have 4 Aces.

We need new leadership. It’s been clear for a very long time that Mitch is no longer even remotely competent. He’s still playing the 1990 “my Good Friends on the other side of the aisle” game, while his “good friends” are hell bent on not only destroying him and his entire caucus, but the entire country as well.

same fellow who failed to help hardly at all in preventing the Presidential Election theft and then the Election Theft of the two Georgia senate seats (costing him the senate majority)

Lin Wood was wrong about this. Mitch doesn’t want to change the rules. We wouldn’t even be worrying about this issue if the two Republicans had won. Lin Wood got people all worked up for nothing, including telling Georgians to sit the run-offs out.
