The one element which cost us in 2020 and 2022 was that McConnell and other establishment Republicans such as Romney, worked against all MAGA candidates. If they had supported MAGA we would have won them all.

Well, he is right.
I have no idea how Trump selected his endorsements in AZ, but none of them was particularly appealing. I have not voted for any of them in primary!
Like I mentioned before, out of nine statewide candidates, four were endorsed by Trump and all lost!
Five were NOT endorsed explicitly by Trump and all WON!
Call it fraud or coincidence, but I believe Trump endorsed the wrong people.
His endorsement was enough to get them through crowded primaries (none of them got 50%), but not enough to win the general election!

“He helped get conservative justices on the USSC”

Based on Traitor Roberts as a standard;

Croney Barrett is questionable.

Kav was Kennedy’s hand picked successor.

The SCOTUS is 3-1-2-1-2, NOT 3-6.

Trump attacks McConnell often. Might as well fire back.

The turtle’s refusal to find them clearly didn’t have anything to do with it.

Have I ever seen McConnell say anything bad about Romney or
Graham?

I sure don’t recall having done so.

gee, I thought it was the RNC that was supposed to vet (and fund) successful candidates...

but speaking of Trump, 2022 was Trump’s most successful endosement record yet:

Total Endorsements 495
Primary Endorsements 241
Succeess rate, Primaries: 93%
Endorsements, General Elections:254
Success rate, General Elections 83%
