Evidently, Mitch didn't possess that underappreciated talent - he should have stepped down at least a year ago. While I had my disagreements with the man he did some good things as Senate Republican leader, the greatest of which was keeping Merrick Garland off the Supreme Court. Fire away, kids....
Sooner would be better than later. The talking heads in the media are saying Republican whip Thune (SD), Barrasso (WY) and Cornyn (TX) are his most likely replacements.
The senate has less kooks. It’ll be some regular Republican with 30 years in the senate. They don’t have folks like Boebert or Gaefz in there trying to pick a goofball
It does seem to be a different breed there Likely because they cannot condense into an obscure rural district with a collective IQ of 17 and run on the most abhorrent backwoods rhetoric imaginable.
Indeed, and given Thune and Barrasso's positions within the Senate Republican leadership it's highly likely one of them will get the job. Tom Cotton has been mentioned as a younger, dark horse candidate, and while his dedication to our country is beyond dispute, he's not likely to jump the line here.
I say, good riddance. As to his successor: Maybe Thune already knew about this when he recently endorsed Trump, after being critical of him in the past. It seems that the path to Senate GOP leadership goes through MAGA, and Thune knows this. I think, though that Trump will not be forgiving and lobby for someone else.
Or an 'illustrious' urban district with a collective IQ of 16 that would elect a vacuous socialist nut job like AOC or a racist, Jew-hating piece of trash like Rashida Tlaib.
Turtle Man (No relation) Mitch should be praised for keeping Merrick Garland off of the Supreme Court. But they need new leadership
Hopefully, someone who will slap that slimeball Schumer's ass down. He's as lousy an excuse for a human being as Harry Reid was.
what Schumer has on Dingy Harry is that Schumer is very smart -as smart as he is slimy. Dingy Harry was Bidenesque in his low wattage intellect
LOL - Too many blows to the head. I guess that would explain the brilliant decision to nuke the filibuster for federal judges.....and my didn't McConnell make him pay for that mistake.
I don't have only negative views on dingy. He so wanted to remain majority leader that he prevented idiots like Feinswine and Schumer from bringing gun bans up in the senate-bans that Obama would have surely signed, because Dingy remembered what happened to the Dems in 1994 after the clinton gun ban squeaked by narrowly in both houses.
