Marginally better than the turtle.

Marginally.

[dfwgator]

But definitely better, hopefully he’ll know where his bread is buttered.

[Jacquerie]

It helps to read before posting. Try it.

One thing at a time. Let’s first concentrate on winning the Majority on November 8th. After that, the Republican Senators will have two months to decide their leadership.

Marginally better than the turtle. Marginally.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step

[Signalman]

Why not Ted Cruz?

[Jacquerie]

Ask him.

[ifinnegan]

Turtle would retire if this happened I think.

(the Democrats) Bitch McConnell, needs to be placed in
mothballs. His reign of ‘Never Trump’ is over.

He and Ryan passed up the opportunity of a lifetime, when
they thumbed their noses at Trump, and couldn’t think of
more than one big bill to submit to him in two years.

Portions of that Tax cut bill expire in 2025.

He supports Lisa Murkowski.... I call for him to resign and let DeSantis to appoint someone real.

Without cocaine Mitch there is no endless confirmations of Trump judicial appointments. Whether someone is at odd with Trump or can’t be the determining factor. Mitch is old guard though and it may be time to move on. That didn’t work so well in the House with crying Boehner and Paul Ryan (huge disappointment).

What do we really know about Rick Scott that would recommend him as majority leader? I ask this having a generally positive view of Scott.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

McConnell has some things to his credit. But mostly he is part of the corrupt system. McConnell is invested in the status quo.

[GOPJ]

I’m with you - one step at a time. No counting chickens until they’re hatched...

[Governor Dinwiddie]

#10: "He and Ryan passed up the opportunity of a lifetime, when they thumbed their noses at Trump, and couldn’t think of more than one big bill to submit to him in two years."

Ding ding ding! We have a winner! Precisely: the opportunity of lifetime … squandered.

[Jacquerie]

The Turtle shepherded President Trump’s three conservative judicial nominees through the senate.

But he also curiously backstabbed President Trump several times.

He is neck deep in Chicom payola.

I want him gone.

[SamAdams76]

Mitch does not have a magic wand with regard to confirming judicial nominations. Others can step in and get it done. Time for Mitch to go, he is no ally of MAGA.

[DoughtyOne]

“:^)

Thanks.

[Nicojones]

Scott is Definitely better! I think Thune will push hard if we are able to topple McConnel. Thune is just as bad as McConnel. We’d be lucky to get Scott.

Without cocaine Mitch there is no endless confirmations of Trump judicial appointments.

Pure speculation.
