    You will abandon your messiah when he turns 104?

    Liberals are going to defeat Mich, who is one of them, to have a victory they can claim.

    No conservative I know will miss Mitch. You are doing US/America a favor. Best of luck to you Dems.

    I really really really hope MITCH gets DITCHED. The first pro-American thing the dems have done.

    Those two are better off staying out of Kentucky to achieve their goal.

    Given Trump's "The buck alway stops with someone else!" hysteria, his sniveling about first Sessions, and now McConnell, given most GOP senators loyalty to the Turtle, could well contribute to lengthening the litany of Trump's legislative failures.

    Great point.

    Trump is already a lame duck.

    Trump will get nothing through the Senate (unless it is bipartisan legislation supported by the Dems).

    Mitch has every reason to stall Trump's agenda.

    To show a legislatively naive rube (like Trump) where the real power lies.

    That part isn't quite true. I've seen plenty of clear evidence of pollster bias during the elections (it happens when they run a methodology that has something like 54% demoxrats and 17%Republicans in their sample and they don't weight it). But they fo seem to start changing their polling near the end, because that's what people remember.

    ^_- what? You're kidding yourself, right? Mitch has been waiting for years to conteol all 3 houses, and you think he's going to piss the little edge away in a pissing contest?

    Mitch has failed because there are a few media darlings in the GOP that always try to be/appear moderates - apart from those pretty well known few, the GOP has had whay it needs to pass legislation.

    My concern is that he is threatened with impeachment, has one of his tantrums, and absconds.

    Pence does not have the potential for legislative impotence that Trump exudes.

    Point taken.

    But, with 60 votes needed in the Senate, even Pence might not be able to thread that needle.

    I am now thoroughly convinced that Trump is just that intellectually challenged to never have understood that there is something called checks and balances and a balance of powers within a functioning democracy and nation of laws. This dolt and authoritarian wannabe is truly clueless.

    Oh, for sure.

    He NEVER understood the nuance of the 60-vote rule in the Senate.

    He thought the Presidency was a dictatorship.

    What a naive rube.

    Just wow. :salute:

    If this dunce were not born a trust fund baby he would never have been more than just another stupid face in the crowd. His penchant for self-promotion is just a symptom of his insecurities and ad nauseam need for attention. What a bloviated turn off.

    Are trying to appear moderate or be a media darling or are they voting the way the people of their home state wants them to vote. If it's the later, that is the way representation is suppose to work. Be they Representatives in the House or Senators, they were elected to represent the people of their district or state. Not to be a shrill for whatever political party they belong to.

    I don't know if that is the case here, but Collins of Maine wouldn't last long being a far right conservative. It is my view it is better to have a Collins on your side voting the way you want 80-90% of the time than having her replaced by a Democrat who votes against you 100% of the time. My feelings.

    I think Hillary and Elizabeth W. are hilarious when they get together. Two strange little women in pantsuits howling. I hope the DNC runs them together in 2020.
