Republicans buck Trump's bid to topple 'indispensable' McConnell (oh brother)
Washington Times ^ | Today | By Alex Swoyer

Republican officials and operatives on Wednesday reminded the Trump wing of the GOP that the former president owes much of his legacy to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, insisting that the veteran Washington powerbroker shouldn’t be summarily discarded for disloyalty to former President Donald Trump.

Even Trump supporters bucked the call to turn their backs on the Senate GOP leader and emphasized that it is the Kentucky Republican who still has power in Washington.

74 Million voted for Trump, and the vast majority of those still back him. McConnell is the face of old RINO establishment that the grassroots wants swept away. Pick out the ones still supporting him, because they need to be swept away, too.

Makin’ a list, checkin’ it twice. . . . . . .

“the former president owes much of his legacy to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell”

Maybe to some extent, but mainly it’s the other way around. Does the GOPe, including McConnell, understand that Turtle’s bony ass wouldn’t be in Senate chambers now if not for PDJT strongly endorsing him?

And as far as the three new SCOTUS judges who were installed, it just seems like a monumental feint organized by McConnell. They have not been stellar or especially conservative by any means.

The Chicoms compromised Mitch a long time ago, President Trump is the first President with the Cajones to confront him about it because Trump can see right through him.

They are getting very nervous now that they have done the dirty deed of assisting the Democrats in the theft of the election. They thought they could just fool the rubes into believing that their own lying eyes were deceiving them, by constantly repeating the mantra that President Trump was repeating the big lie regarding the election results.

Yet the rubes persist in believing their own lying eyes, because they trust their eyes over the GOPe. They know what they saw and the GOPe will reap what they have sown, a completely disenfranchised base that has turned their back on the GOPe.

In other words, the GOPe, gambled and they are now bankrupt after betting the entire nation, that was not theirs to bet in the first place, for their own selfish interests. The GOPe, and the people, lose and the enemies prevail. But the patriots will regroup under a different leadership, because the GOPe was never up to the task in the first place, and fight to retake this country back from the enemy and vanquish them as they wish now to vanquish us.

“The Trump wing of the GOPee...”

I’ll bet that wing has a lot fewer members than before the Big Steal. I, for one, used to be in that wing, but not anymore. And if Trump stays in that wing then he won’t get my vote either. Trump told his supporters to vote for every GOPee shill, crook, scumbag, and quisling traitor when he was president and the leader of the GOPee for the sake of party unity. In the end Trump got sccrewed and his supporters right along with him. I’ll never vote for any beast who aligns themselves with the GOPee ever again, including Trump.

GOPee Delenda Est!

That a way! Take a personal stand during the election, and vote indie! Brilliant!
