This has been going on for how long and he’s just getting around to calling this out??? I mean, I’m glad he’s done it at all, but this is about six months late.
That’ll light a fire under Ole Mitch for sure!
Oh, go ahead, Chuck. Say it. “I can’t help but notice that the GOP has a vested interest in seeing continued Russian efforts to tilt elections in the GOP’s favor.”
If anyone here knows any group / action that is effectively depriving McConnell of “oxygen” or mucking with his political supply lines please share.
Getting his wife out of her cabinet position is not a bad start.
“abdicating their responsibilities to our grand democracy.”
Actually, the GOP is actively trying to destroy our democracy. Democracy is now an existential threat to them and you need to start talking about it as such…both their desire and attempts to kill democracy and why they’re doing it.
Wow, Chuck. That’s sure gonna leave a mark.
“Student Body President Wally Schumer (D/R-$$) Makes Vague Attempt To Rally Dem Base, Employs Withered Invective Against Self-Acknowledged Racist Vote Suppressing Russian Asset”
Not your wartime consigliere, no.
Thanks for the tip.
I just signed a petition from them re: ousting Elaine Chao.
My bet is the GOP will absolutely massively cheat in 2020. McTurtle is clearly on board with that effort.
Chuck “Comity of Errors” Schumer has strong words for McConnell.
Come on man, at least lead with something like:
-
Of course the Majority Leader would protect Russian interests over the United States. He & his wife have the “for sale” signs out all over Kentucky.
-
Oleg Deripaska’s aluminum plant is just the first of many foreign entanglements the Majority Leader is happy participate in. And if his oath to the Constitution gets in the way, we know where his allegiances lie.
When it’s all you’ve got left …
Indeed. They already are cheating for 2020.
Not to single you out when others could stand to have this brought to their attention as well but Schumer is not the fucking bad guy here. He’s the minority leader, emphasis minority, and it limits your options as far as beating up the actual bad guys. McConnell has consistently blocked bipartisan legislation aimed at protecting our elections. There’s no unappalling explanation for that.
Hey cynics, just be glad anyone is saying anything to call out McConnell.
He is not going to get away with being the enabler and hopefully will go down with tRump in 2020.
I want to find a little hope when anyone speaks out.
It’s almost as if they do not think they can win, unless the Russians help them cheat.
There’s the “Ditch Mitch” fund but I don’t know much about it.
I totally forgot about them. Thanks.
I recently read KY polling data. He looks strong. Best thing to move him aside = Get his wife out of cabinet, and make him the minority leader (with a dem president) in 2020. That combo might make retirement look attractive.
For some folks, blaming Democrats for things Republicans do has become sport.
Like the guy who comes home from working for a jerk boss, and kicks the dog every night.
It’s tough to maintain your cynical-hipster cred without shooting the wounded whenever you get the chance.
