The Republican leader told POLITICO that his critics “had their shot” already. But conservatives are not done whacking him over the immigration-for-Ukraine aid implosion.

It baffles me how people see what happens among the Republican lawmakers and say, “yeah, that’s the kind of leadership I want to make my country great.” I mean, if you don’t agree with Democrats then don’t vote for them. But why keep voting for the same people who year after year show they have no interest in governing?
GOP voters have turned over the last two decades from a traditional type of elector, who casts votes and lends political power to a candidate for something. The average GOP voter in 2024 is voting against something. These things they oppose are often imagined or maliciously designed and when real, are almost always dishonestly portrayed in scale and scope.

Some of them are just dumb and hateful enough to want The Jerry Springer Congressional Show to continue. And grifters like Greene and Fivehead know this.
Fear. Of everything. Of America not being how it was when they were growing up. Conservative media have to constantly keep them terrified of imaginary shit so they’ll vote for the person who can “fix” it.
You think they take 5 minutes to wonder why the “caravan” appears like clockwork right around election time every few years and then disappears like magic?
Nah.
The best time to have lived in America was in the 50s as a white property owning man. Republicans fantasize over that period and want to regress us to get that back.
They aren’t seeing it. Fox isn’t showing it.
The insane thing to me is how people are so willing to look past the open hostility towards democracy. It’s crazy that people see the insurrection, the false electors plot, the refusal to certify the election, etc and just say “yeah but I prefer their tax policies.”
I hate Mitch McConnell with the intensity of 10,000 suns. But I give the devil his due; he knows how to manipulate Senate rules to get what he wants. I think the GOP could be about to slaughter the golden turtle.
They have no one else who can do what he does.
I was in a civil debate with a light-Trumper about why he thought the election was rigged. I asked him one simple question that honestly made him reconsider his stance: “Informed Democrats know that McConnell has done more damage to this country than Trump ever could, so if the Democrats really went out of their way to rig the elections in multiple key states to keep Trump out, why not finish the job in just one state to stop maybe their most powerful enemy in Mitch McConnell from staying in power?”
Or ask him, if the Democrats rigged the election so Trump would lose, why didn’t they also rig a few of the other races in the same ballots so all those targeted Republicans would lose. This would have given the Democrats control of the house and Senate.
Don’t you fucking tell me when I’ve taken my shot, old man! You have not yet even begun to imagine my pettiness. I hope your balls get caught between the toilet seat and the bowl and then you sneeze.
Strong stuff, and I’m here for it! I hope he suffers the indignity of itching, without the relief of scratching!
How about an intense itching sensation in all his internal organs, so he could scratch if he was committed enough?
I like it!
He sounds so old in audio clips now. I think he’s almost out of turtle power.
The GOP don’t realize that their “standing in the face of adversity” looks like an ineffectual tantrum to anyone who doesn’t drink their Kool aid.
Do they not realize, or do they just not care?
Do you think The Crypt Keeper is wondering “Why are the other zombies trying to eat me?”
