As long as Mitch and Ryan go I’m okay with it.

One thing I will have to give them credit for, there was no SCOTUS appointment to replace Scalia.

WE MUST WIN THIS ELECTION!

I’m not donating to the RNC this year because I’m afraid some money may end up going to Mitch McConnell or Paul Ryan.

That's exactly why you don't donate to the RNC. Donate directly to candidates.

Because of the feckless and pusilanimous "leadership" of the bought-and-paid-for lickspittle GOPe quislings.

If they had held koskinen in contempt or impeached him, the GOPe would be in a better position.

And by held, I mean ordered his arrest.

I haven’t donated to the RNC in years. Recently, I got a letter from them urging me to consider donating again so they can keep up their fight to support Republican values.

Really, are they kidding???

He has only his dictatorial self to blame, fighting the conservatives in the GOP instead of Obama. But he and the rest of the GOPe will blame conservative voters, as they always do when they lose.

Pay back is you know what Mitch... Remember Thad Cochran? Well, you have earned everything you got coming. You old worthless bulls and cows can go graze on grass. You and your bulls and cows have played US worse than the progressives... The progressives do not hide who they are. Go bellyache to them over your squandered fortunes.

Things might be different if you fools rallied around your candidate who made history in the primaries. Good grief, if the democrats can rally around their criminal......

“Too bad other Georgians don’t see that”

In Georgia, the ratio of gimmidats to productive citizens is narrowing, with the gimmidats seeming to have an advantage.

Yesterday Toomey had the opportunity to stand in front of 25k PA voters at two Trump events and pitch his cause. He #NeverTrumped instead. So why would I bother to vote for him?

And YOU and the republican party are the reason your party is in jeopardy... we have had enough of your joining with obama against the people... and letting him live as a dictator... giving him freedom to do impeachable acts and facing no consequences... you do not have the brains nor the will to impeach the president who has taken laws into his own hands and ruled by decree.

YOU are the reason the voters are angry .. and I use that word loosely.. it does not fully describe what I think of you and ryan and the ruling party that refused to listen to the people of these United States.

I’m never voting for a republican senator of congressman again. They are all liars just like the Dems.I am voting for Trump and hoping with the backing of the American people, he’ll be able to fix the country. That scum in Washington will never help him.

No doubt about it. How many times have we been told a President has an inherent right to have his nominees approved. (’Scuse me while I barf).

Just preparing for all possibilities. A President Trump needs a Senate majority, although how much support he will get from a Senate majority remains to be seen. My hunch is the forementioned right will go down the memory hole.

If we put in Mike Lee as Senate Majority Leader (only because Samuel Adams is unavailable) then maybe keeping the Senate would make a difference.

"We" don't get to put in the Senate Majority Leader. The members of the Senate get to do that. If the GOP is in the Majority again, they'll probably hand it back to turtle neck.

You are 100% correct on your analysis of Isakson. I did not vote for him in the primary. But, his competitors were weak. So weak that I never heard of them. I will VERY RELUCTANTLY vote for him because I want the wall built. There is no guarantee that he would vote for the wall, but it is absolutely guaranteed that the rat will not vote for it.

All he has to do is look in the mirror for answers. His capitulation to the half breed’s agenda and his betrayal of “conservative principles” are the reason you can lose the Senate and why Donald Trump is the GOP candidate.

Want to turn it around and keep your fancy office and bloated paycheck? Then stop fighting Trump and the people.
