Mc-BYE!!!
Townhall ^ | Nov 13, 2022 | Kevin McCullough

The wringing of the hands is furious. With another election less than a month away the anxiety is fierce. And the barbs are already flying.

I’m not talking about the distraction of Trump vs. DeSantis

[cut]

I’m referring to the election of the next Senate leader for the GOP now that “Cocaine” Mitch McConnell has lost the Senate for the second cycle in a row. Elections bring about accountability. It’s time to make a change and that change should be an advocate for America First.

With the media peddling the idea of the red “trickle” most haven’t looked at the amazing accomplishments of this election.

Specifically, President Trump endorsed (America First) candidates went 219-16 among the races where President Trump worked, endorsed, rallied, and sacrificed. McConnell threw a record amount of money raised, in mostly only four Senate races, and discovered that just writing a check doesn’t do the same thing.

Not surprisingly McConnell is ignoring the Georgia run-off and insisting the leadership election go forward before the race for Senator from Georgia is decided. It’s selfish. It’s a bad strategy when Walker needs a united party behind him, and it wreaks desperation.

Win or lose in Georgia, McConnell lost the Senate. Pelosi will likely be retired if she fails to hold the house. McConnell deserves the same scrutiny—it’s what his job as leader demands.

Finally, if the rumors are true that McConnell may have been distracted from his job because he’s been part of an elite crew attempting to recruit either Gov. DeSantis or Gov. Youngkin to create a primary fight with President Trump then he should be shown the door.

He is distracted by making sure legislation is advantageous to his Chinese overlords.

Wishful thinking.

McConnell will be minority leader.

He’s not wishful thinking or making any predictions. It is standing up and demanding what should happen and as we must all say it’s time for Mitch McConnell to go.

Maybe you haven't been around the last decade, but that is how long we have been trying to knock McConnell out from the leadership role

The Supreme Court needs to act to force the Congress to change the way it runs its business.

We are supposed to have equal representation, however, because of seniority and the handing out of prime committee posts, some congresscritters are more equal than others.

McConnell keeps getting re-elected because he has more power than all the other senators. This allows him a larger arsenal of carrots and sticks to keep the other senators in line.

This is no longer a democracy or republic if one senator has more "representation" than the others.

The way the congress is organized is inherently unconstitutional and needs to be reformed.

SCOTUS has nothing to do with how Congress runs

If something is unconstitutional, then SCOTUS has something to do with it.

Congress is being run unconstitutionally, and has been for decades.
