House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-SC) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will not be able to block President Joe Biden’s agenda because he was a”miserable failure” at his stated goal of making former President Barack Obama a one-term president.
In a video, McConnell said, “100% of my focus is standing up to this administration. What we have in the United States Senate is total unity from Susan Collins to Ted Cruz in opposition to what the new Biden administration is trying to do to this country.”
Anchor Jake Tapper said, “What’s your take on that comment? Does that mean there’s no hope for bipartisanship in the Senate?” Clyburn said, “No. I think the Republicans are going to remember that it was Mitch McConnell who told them that his number one priority was to make sure that Barack Obama was a one-term president. Last time I checked, he was a miserable failure in 2012, and Barack Obama was a two-term president and a very successful one at that.”

A pox on both their houses, just more political Kabuki Theater.
Behind closed doors, they are all pals.
Clyburn reached the correct conclusion. I am not sure about the way that he reached that conclusion, but Mitch is indeed a miserable loser.
McConnell had a much bigger personal animus towards Trump than anybody.
McConnell is the most effective legislator in several generations.
It is if your thing is boiling the frogs without them noticing.
For the GOP? Really?
Exactly. This is merely the uniparty script. Nothing more than a Democrat helping an assistant Democrat trying to shore up his base.
Pfffft....
McConnell Is a ‘Miserable Failure’ — Has ‘Personal Animus Towards Democrats’And Trump.
For once I agree with Jim Clyburn.
Breitbart collecting Democrat quotes as usual.
This is the revealing line.........”opposition to what the new Biden administration is trying to do to this country”
Yes, trying to “DO TO THIS COUNTRY”!!!!
Trump would say what I am trying to do FOR this country!!!!!!
Really, he hides it well. Almost as well as you hide your love for Republicans.
I’m glad to see the BEGINNINGS of what I hope to be growing DemocRAT frustration at having their attempts to weaken and destroy America at least somewhat hindered.
McConnell has more animus against conservatives.
Yea, he’s a KY ingrate. Trump hired his wife for the Cabinet, but then she bailed out under false pretenses.
McConnell is a CCP asset.
Lifelong hater of Republicans, Jim Clyburn, is a maggot.
