Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has reportedly changed his mind on Republican chances of retaking control of the Senate in the midterm elections.

Poor guy must have had a minor stroke or something.

This is positive news, and he’s had a deathly fear of that
in recent decades.

So Mitch, does this mean you are going to back the MAGA candidates?

He told the Chamber of Commerce?
He might as well sent a personal message to Peloi.
