One day after the Senate approved a temporary lift to the U.S. debt ceiling, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell wrote in a letter to President Joe Biden that he would not aid Democrats again in raising the debt limit.

He’s just an obnoxious t-word, as always, as he does it.

Why the Hell did Mitch help them in the first place? They have the votes. As Rush said, “Make them own it!”

The usual GOP response is "we didn't want to be blamed..."

If he caves in November, technically he’s not lying.

There are always enough RINOs to pass any crazy crap one could dream up.

They set out to damage Trump and label him racist and irrational. Yet, there’s been no movement to paint Joe in a bad light. In fact, they’ve given him all his appointments and have co-sponsored all his ludicrous moves.

.
The American people couldn’t pick McCarthy out of a lineup, and Mitch is even worse.

Now with the 3D chess theories.

So, why did Mitch Lie and say they would get no Republican support, and they’d have to do it on their own?

Why would he lie and alienate Conservatives in the Senate?

They do NOT have the votes. Need 60 to get by filibuster. Parliamentarian rules they can’t pass it via the method requiring only 51 votes (or 50 + VP breaking a tie).

Proof: Democrats have 50 votes but needed 10 Republicans (and got 11)...

Mitch is a Schmuck.

“Schmuck, or shmuck, is a pejorative term meaning one who is stupid or foolish, or an obnoxious, contemptible or detestable person. The word came into the English language from Yiddish (Yiddish: שמאָק‎, shmok), where it has similar pejorative meanings, but where its literal meaning is a vulgar term for a penis.”

Correction:

Mitch is a shmok.

Republicans like McConnell just never learn. Why they cannot understand the deceptive, total depravity of the Democrats is beyond me.

Pssst.. over here. I got something to tell you. He's in on it.

Wow! LOL. And it’s only 2021, I hope it holds out and I get a trophy - be like the millenial generation - who get trophies for everything, including doing nothing, doing things poorly, and failure. (except I won’t be around to find out if it does).

McConnell has been wheeling and dealing with the Democrats since he has been an elected official. December will be more of the same.
