Perhaps the most important of these, Sen. McConnell, does not appear to be bothered by the fact that he is both the most unpopular senator but also that he has lost the confidence of most Republicans. Astonishing, it appears that McConnell may prefer to lose the Senate and continue to subject the country to Biden’s hellish policies rather than lose his status as minority leader if a sufficient number of Trump-Republicans win their Senate races. The fact that the Republican base still prefers Trump should settle the debate for McConnell no matter what his private views. Unfortunately, it is all too obvious that it is very easy in D.C. to sacrifice one’s principles in order to be one of “the big guys.”
Conservatives never win because many establishment Republican leaders are what Trump said they are: weak. Lindsay Graham, John Kennedy, Ted Cruz and other influential Republicans need to remind McConnell that it is not about him. It is about conservative and Republican voters. The fate of the country may depend on it.

Well hopefully he retires at the end of the year, or is booted by the party at the urging of President Trump.
With McConnell the GOP is for sale. America’s enemies absolutely love him and team.
The GOP has been a waste of time since the first George Bush…..only MAGA candidates can change the GOP
Trump should be speaker of the house….sets the agenda
Nothing terrifies republican elites more than being in charge. They have been quietly fleecing us all into being victims of democrats that we no longer recognize sell-outs.
China Mitch is all about MCGA.... Making China great again.
As Minority leader he gets hush money from the budget to buy Kentucky votes. It’s reward for his loyal second tier power support he gives to Democrats.
He’s totally compromised with his foreign financial dealings. He’ll hold up the entire GOP to save his own worthless behind.
This is the price, “Team Mitch” for “reaccccccching acroxxxxx the aiiiiiissssle” for 50 years. You are as lame as a broken down racehorse. We are damn sick of NOT having representation in the Halls of Congress and then having you limp wristed GOPeahens say that it is our DUTY to support you. #NotOneRedCent and resign, Mitch. Your due date to be put out to that Kentucky BLUEgrass pasture has long passed, Bub.
I’ll repeat what I have said several times (and I’ll keep repeating it): When McConnell runs for reelection in 2026, conservatives should vote for his Democrat opponent. We have to get rid of him. A primary challenge will almost certainly fail. He will run millions of dollars of ads painting the conservative as a liberal.
Pre-Gingrich Republicans, especially Senators, reminded me of NFL players on a perennial losing team. They got the pay, the perks, and the status and didn’t really care if they won.
LadyG?
I don't think so, Tim.
Mitch is Uniparty to the core
Mitch was 100% in on the 2020 steal.
See meetings with CIA head Gina Haspel at the Capitol 5 days after the rigged election.
They shut down 6 states at the exact time.
The networks including Fox refused to call for states for Trump but early for PedoHitler.
It was rigged big time and many republicans were in on it,
Mitch is part of the deep state. Not part of the cabal. He is dedicated to the status quo as it gives his ego power.
We should line up a sane democrat to run in their primary, the kind who will reach across the aisle, and then jump the dem ship. It would keep Dems in their own primary instead of switching like they did for Liz Cheney.
“Nothing terrifies republican elites more than being in charge.”
Really starting to believe this.
He does not have to face the voters again until 2026, and if he wants to stay, then the only way to get him out early is to impeach him, which must be done in the Senate and there won’t be enough votes to do that. There is no state-wide recall for a US Senator. Thanks to Trump’s 2020 endorsement, we are stuck with the Turtle.
Yes but he could lose the leadership post, and any other leadership positions.
