“...it would be futile — and politically damaging”

Right. As if the GOP brand hasn’t been damaged the past five years.

IMO Mitch McConnell is up to his eyeballs in Chinagate, he and his Rino cabal can’t afford to have another Trump administration.

[Jim Noble]

So, losing 73 million conservative votes is not damaging, Mitch?

Trump is no conservative, and neither are a lot of his voters.

If "conservative" even means anything any more, it just means losing.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

My Senators in Idaho are worse. Hunkered down, completely silent, ignoring the avalanche of cries that they support Trump. It’s so disappointing.

[BigEdLB]

Mitch just signed a declaration of war against the citizens.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

“Change parties”?

He should LEAD the formation of the successor party to the Republicans.

[BigEdLB]

So every Senator an 7 of 9 scotus and 95% of the house sold their souls to China. A sad death for a once great country

[Truth29]

Banana republics have death squads. The GOP is merely the Potemkin Village segment of the Marxists Left. They all are selling out America without a qualm. They don't want a mess and they are happy to see America be killed as long as they get their piece of the action. They need a mess and they need to live in fear of an enraged populace.

[gathersnomoss]

China Mitch, killing America.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

I’m a conservative and millions of others are as well, and we voted for Trump. Have you heard of MAGA? It’s a great slogan!

[BigEdLB]

Good you had that last sentence. You beat me to
It. Time to get ready to remove the quislings

[ronnie raygun]

Mitch is a traitor we all knew it

[ml/nj]

Senate Republican Whip John Thune (S.D.) said GOP leaders will tell Tuberville that voting to suspend the tally of the Electoral College vote next month will be a futile — and politically damaging — move.

I wonder if Mr. Jefferson thought about such things.

Good for you.

Trump was elected by 60 000 Democrats in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania because he promised a national health plan that was "cheaper than Obamacare" and that would "cover everybody", and also because he promised to build a "big beautiful wall" that would end the waves of aliens coming into their towns and ruining their children's future.

My point was, Trump transcended conservatism and that any future for America, if there is one, will involve the part of his 73 million voters who are not like you.

[Wonder Warthog]

Republican Senators....the new surrender monkeys. Examine your nether regions for gonads. SURELY you had some at some time?

[Billyv]

GOPe Strives diligently to avoid finding their Patriotic BACKBONES on January 6th.

WWG1WGA!

[Lion Den Dan]

Mitch will reach out all right but will it be a deal that Tommy T can’t refuse or will it be naked intimidation?

[EinNYC]

McConnell is a total Chinese-bought-off SCOUNDREL. If I were to encounter him on the street, I’d send a Bronx cheer his way. What a piece of traitorous selfish SCUM.

[Hot Rod Garage]

Not against Chinese gunships..

[existentially_kuffer]

>>>The GOPE is assuring my family will never again help Republicans.

So well said. I have such distaste for the moral decay of Mitch’s GOP.
