‘Turn the page.’ Barnette says she wouldn’t support McConnell as GOP leader
McClatchy DC ^ | MAY 13, 2022 | DAVID CATANESE

Posted on 05/14/2022 9:42:11 PM PDT by TBP

Kathy Barnette, who has taken Republican leaders by surprise with her late break run towards the GOP Senate nomination in Pennsylvania, said she would not support Mitch McConnell to lead her party if she makes it to Washington. “No, I think it’s time,” Barnette said in a recent interview with McClatchyDC. “These people have been in office longer than I’ve been alive. It’s time to move forward, thank you. Turn the page.” She added, “None of these people are going to release power. Power is addictive to them.” The 50-year-old Barnette, a Black conservative woman, poses a real threat to winning Pennsylvania’s Republican Senate primary on Tuesday, despite being outspent by tens of millions of dollars supporting Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dave McCormick. And the race in Pennsylvania will be a crucial piece in deciding whether McConnell becomes majority leader again in 2023.

Would Oz or McCormick make the same pledge? I bet they can't. Their globalist handlers want Ditch in there.

There are a few here that would rather have China Mitch than Kathy the survivor of rape.

Now let me hear what she thinks of Collins and Murkowski.

McConnells there until 2027. So big deal. Who would she support.

She's just throwing junk out there.

The last I heard...she said..."I will work with the President". Really??

To be clear he said he supports her. Did not use “endorsed” but I believe it’s implied.

This type of stupid promise — a refusal to support the sitting GOP leader in the Senate who has no challengers to his leadership post never seems to work for a candidate. It comes across as an act of desperation.

Not to worry...."She said she will work with the President". She knows he's a Dem, right??

More meaningless junk.

The more they try and trash her the more I like her, their criticism is having the opposite effect they intended.
