[snip] McConnell ( didn’t think) the Democrats’ second impeachment push was political in nature, he wanted Trumpism ( purged from the party) and was floated to be (a possible vote to convict). He was furious with Trump for costing the GOP the Senate. There was a lot of noise. And then, he had a ( "come to Jesus" moment,) probably because he saw how the base views the former president.

It took Cocaine Mitch 5 years to figure out how the base feels about POTUS Trump? The turtle needs to come out of his shell once in a while and stop watching MSM.
If McConnell thought that Trump cost the Republicans the Senate, Then McConnell is more delusional than even I had thought. McConnell worked against Trump every way he could. I think that McConnell wanted Trump to be gone but the Senate to stay Republican.
What cost the GOP the Senate was voter fraud. The same brand of fraud I seem to recall him denying.
Hahahahahaha, yeah right.
Spot on, and that's what I've been doing.. When the GOP calls I give them an ear full...
If Mitch can stop the commie-nazi Democrat legislative agenda, I will support him.
I was, as many were, terribly, awfully disappointed with his unwarranted criticisms of PDJT. McConnell sounded like he was reading a DemoNaziCommie DNC party script. Really rotten of him, there was NO need for him to say anything.
But right now, he’s about all we have to save the country?
Just like he did with Trump.
Cocaine Mitch has long been controlled by his ChiCom masters - i.e. his in-laws.
Does he now?
I quit giving to the GOP 20 years ago . We give individual donations.
Have at 'im ol' boy.... and good luck wit dat.
If The Post Turtle puts half the effort into getting rid of Xiden as he did stabbing President Trump in the back, Xiden’s days are truly numbered. What are his plans for Heels Up! ?
I will hold my nose and stand with Mitch if he actually does as he says. I don’t like it but the RATs have gone clinically insane.
Did his wife go full Kung Fu on him?
I get so tired of the trolls here blaming Republicans for the Georgia races. They were as fixed as the presidential election.
If any one person can be blamed for loss of the Senate, it's Mitch. He might well have cost the GOP the two seats in Georgia when his shot down Trump's call for $2,000 stimulus checks.
Whatever anyone thinks of that, the fact is that Trump attracted more and more working folks at all income levels to the party, and many of them in Georgia and elsewhere could have benefited from the $2,000 during Trump's last weeks in office. Mitch's action disappointed many Trump supporters and created confusion in the Georgia runoff campaigns.
Even with all the vote fraud, the races were still winnable, but the voters didn't need any further disappointments and negative motivation.
Mitch has always been an excellent Minority Leader. The turtle just mumbles through questions from a hostile press, pulls his head inside his shell, and lets the dem hysteria roll off his back. He has always provided great cover for vulnerable Republican Senators. As Majority Leader ... well, going all the way back to Bob Dole and the first Republican Senate in 30 years, we’ve never had more than 55 Republican votes in the Senate. There used to be enough moderate dems to strike an occasional deal, but the dems have gone hard left. Mitch can’t break a filibuster. Neither could Trent Lott, Bill Frist or Bob Dole, all of whom were hailed as saviors by the base when they took their turn. Arithmetic is arithmatic.
Trump didn’t cost the GOP the senate - weak candidates and a ball-less GOP did
