With Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on his way out, a MAGA power play amid the fight for Senate leadership is starting to rub some Republicans the wrong way.
After 17 years in the hot seat, McConnell is expected to exit his post at the top of Senate Republican leadership on Wednesday, ending his run as the longest-serving Senate party leader in U.S. history...
...“Senators do not take kindly to having an army of social media trolls attack them,” one unnamed aide told Politico on Sunday, noting that the effort was only “pissing off senators whose votes Rick needs” to win.

I guess our overlords are choosing to ignore the will of the people. Disgusting.

MAGA makes the republican party relevant. Get on board or get out of the way, whigs.

This can all stop if you just elect Rick Scott.

Clearly, the Senate does not support a MAGA agenda. They have their own plans. Which are probably pretty Progressive.

No one cares what some Romney troll says about anything. He is gone come Jan 2025

If the stress is too much for the perfumed princes (yeah, I know, but they’re just as arrogant as the clowns in the 5-sided building) maybe they ought to retire and let non-cupcakes take their place.

Anyone catch the smug look on Thune’s face when he was telling Trump to “stay out.”
He’s got Mitch’s lube all over his azz... and it’s his turn.

Senators do not take kindly to having an army of social media trolls attack them... That "unnamed aide" might want to get his or her head out of wherever it is and take a look around. That army just spoke. And quite a few aides are packing their suitcases.

Yeah, that is definitely pissing me off. I suggest everyone call their Senators and express their displeasure with Thune and Cornyn. Time for the RINOs to get in line or GTFO! And that’s my Christian opinion.
