Summary

Donald Trump allies, including Tucker Carlson and Laura Loomer, are accusing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of orchestrating a “coup” against Trump’s agenda by scheduling early Senate GOP leadership elections.

Carlson, on social media, urged his followers to support Florida Senator Rick Scott as the only candidate aligned with Trump, warning that other candidates oppose Trump’s policies.

Loomer criticized Republicans for not addressing McConnell’s move sooner, suggesting that calls for party “unity” have enabled this alleged attempt to undermine Trump’s incoming administration.

      No kidding, I had a brief moment where I hated him slightly less but then I remembered all the tangible harm he has done and it went away.

        He’s less bad than I’d expected him to be. He’s still horrendous but not quite as bad

      Please don’t. Mitch is just as awful but with a tiny bit of intelligence making him dangerous.

      I’m not. The turtle is ruthless and smart and would limit the insanity. Nah, let the people have what they want.

        We thought that the insanity would eventually make Trump and MAGA candidates unelectable. That hasn’t happened yet, so I’m not sure if limiting it really matters.

          Yup. Americans are to stupid or racist or misogynist or whatever to actually learn. I think Americans need to finally feel the dildo of consequences that rarely comes lubed fully to maybe finally learn.
