Sen. McConnell Privately Boasts That GOP Fundraising Efforts Bigger Than Trump's: NYT | Morning Joe
The grift continues… They should have been voting for the COVID 19 bill instead of talking about how to get more money from their folks.. But the don’t care… lolll
Now if their version of the COVID bill was accepted they wouldn’t be complaining about what was in it they didn’t want. But now if it had more tax cuts for their wealthy donors and friend’s; they’d be grinning. Well it’s about time they start thinking of the people who voted for them when they went against this legislation. Now many of them will now face their constituents and will have to answer the question as to why they voted against it.

If Trump offered his cult, laced Koolaide, they would all ask for refills.
Republicans never cared about us, the entire time we need monetary relief their talking about Dr Seuss. I don’t care is Mitch raises all the world I would nerve vote for him or let anyone in my family
@E W Agree. I would donate money to someone that could assure me that trump and the republicans are gone and just a long bad dream.
When McConnell admitted that Trump was responsible for the insurrection, after he acquitted Trump for said insurrection, he admitted to giving comfort to an enemy of the Constitution.
Treason.
@AL- BOT for who?
@miapdx pretty much everyone. You may not see it yet, but it has. Summer protests/riots and an insurrection should tell you something. The Republican party has never been this disturbed before. The Republican judges didn’t help their president, and neither did the state officials who mattered.
The moment that 9/11 happened everything changed, even if it took a little while for the changes to take effect. After a long pandemic and civil upheaval, the insurrection changed things again.
Now the Republican Congress people are still not working, after years of doing nothing, but the Democrats are working on things that 70% of the people want.
The people are tired and angry, on both sides of the fence.
Things have changed.
For sure .
yes and the rest of the senate that all believed his stealing the election mantra.
I think they all are guilty why is it they are not being prosecuted for they’re part in the capital insurrection?
Yes he did and he should be held accountable for his very large part in the inserection
The one way to reliably trigger Trump EVERY time,
is to say that anything you have is bigger than his.

@joeyconservative And that sheriff is President Joe Biden.

THE GOOD OL BOYS think in the WRONG Direction‼️☑️💯
@Stars InTheSky so true.
@No Name that is the million dollar question. Paid good by big corporations to serve big business over the interests of American people is my answer.
@Dakota Williams i hope your right, McConnel hurts America
It’s all about the RNC’s income stream. What happened to working for “ We The People “
Working for We the People doesnt exist anymore among the Republicons.
@joyce Loesch : And 9% of a 1.9tril “covid” bill does ?
@꧁Refus꧂
Indeed. My family was devoutly Narcissistic and Alcoholic, and worship services were nonstop.
They never have
@WaterDog Good for you!
Someone seems to be forgetting that large corporations are abandoning them.
@v blackwell It’s already lost over a hundred thousand voters in a single month. And it’s only going to get worse as the purity testing intensifies.
The only way the GOP wins is through voter supression, and it’s showing to be a far less effective tactic than it once was.
@v blackwell If that were true, then why did you lose the house, senate and presidency in 2020? No amount of money is going to get back the Republicans that have left the party, not even Dump.
@v blackwell The same “red wave” rude awaking we got back in November, right?
@Drake Fire The GOP is going full bore voter suppression.

Trump isn’t raising money for running in 2024 ,he is raising money for his debt and legal fees
You said the right thing lol
@Sun Dial about??

DEBT
@MAGGIE LEONARD The Titanic sinking…
@MAGGIE LEONARD
Wow !!!! Never knew Obama owed so much….😉
The GOP is splintering into incompatible flavors of crazy.
The conservative crazy train
1st stop, crazy town
2nd stop, super crazy town
3rd stop, super racist, space laser town 😂
😆😆😆
@Stars InTheSky Reagan conservatives and Born Agains, Tea Party Republicans and Evangelicals, Trump White Nationalists and Q conspiracists.
Today’s Republican Party is a swamp unto itself.
The GOP didn’t splinter it just became the party of Trump the ones that left became independents and democrats. Basically by going all in on Trump the GOP made itself weaker
Trump “The biggest scammer in history “
I think Elon Musk is bigger
Sad part is he gets away with it. Fools
The greatest con ever pulled on the American people.

@W Bush you do have a low IQ
Remember when Trump said” I will pay your legal fees” well, now he is asking you to pay his legal fees 😁

Moscow Mitch gives his self pay raises and still asks for money.
and Cancun Cruz too.
lock him up! bubba likes turtles too. yes he do.
It’s a Mitch’s fixing his muscles Mitch McConnell don’t got no muscles it’s like his face is sagging to the chest or she is going to have to get something to hold his face muscles up with I know neck brace or something or would it cause halos around his head the stretch his face features back so he can see and flap his lips better guys just a coward Mitch Moscow Russians by the puppet of Russian and his Republicans
WRONG!!!
The Senate has absolutely NOTHING to do with it.
The 27th Amendment grants that authority to the House of Representatives after a new House is in office, every 2 years.
Try actually READING the United States Constitution, you obviously haven’t or you would have already known that.
_”If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed, and we will deserve it”_ – Lindsey Graham, 2016
@Vincentia Van Gogh, He now uses Trump-style talk, he will say whatever fits the purpose, it works for Trump especially with his power-base, who generally have the concentration power of a gnat. He may say one thing and then he may say the complete opposite moments later, whatever suits him. What he says is always, meaningless and irrelevant, simply not to be trusted or believed, either one of them.
@Vincentia Van Gogh I don’t get why they even call it the “Big Lie”. It’s more like the “Stupid Lie”, that only the morons dumb enough to trust a pathological liar believe. Not a single one of these dopes have actual solid evidence of widespread voter fraud, all they can do is regurgitate the Right-wing lies and propaganda they’ve been spoonfed.
@ArkadiosTheodulus It’s a reference to the Big Lie (die große Lüge), a tactic that the nazis propaganda machine used to brainwash the german people and promote their hateful agenda. They did it with systematic disinformation of the masses, disparaging and threatening the free press. They played on the fear and loss of morale of the german people post-WWI and styled themselves as saviors who would restore Germany’s glory. So pretty much everything Trump and his cronies have been doing for the past few years. :-/
I thumbs up on your comment , but Lindsey Graham is no good too.
It’s supposed to be govt by the people for the people. There is some way we can get rid of this disgraceful pig
Why is trump worried about raising money when he’s so “rich”.
Trump Need THAT money for law FEE
https://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0
HE JUST WANTS TO SEE HOW MUCH HE CAN DUCK HIS FOLLOWERS ( THEY LUV ME) 😂😂😂
He not Rich come on again he lives a very good life off of our har working people look just know God sees everything and I would rather be poor like I and my family is than take from the poor and in the end I want to go to the bigger 🏡 in heaven amen
He is rich but it’s not his it’s ours the poor and he doesn’t give a crap about the ones who trust him wake up and and when you have nothing left to give him well he’s done with you and then he has all your money 💰💰💰💰 and then you will be in the street and then you will 😢 for our father in heaven but at least God is a loving and forgiving God but if you wait to long to get out of the house your thrown in a lake of 🔥 like Trump does to all of the ones who trust Trump I’m trusting my father in heaven count on that
Citizen Trump is just promoting his snake oil to get all the money from his zombies to pay his debt. 😂
@Mack Jr Bell 110% right
@לוין חנניה כהן לוין that Trump is working with the saudis and Israelis. Follow the kutchner
https://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0
@לוין חנניה כהן לוין I know the world is moving away from the oil industry.
Bs President Trump the best we have had in many years n ONLY one fighting for OUR country n all citizens. The demented fraud biden n harris only care bout helping Illegals for more votes.
Sounds like McConnell is trying to keep his party calm, but they’re freaking out.
Trump is essentially saying “You either bow at my feet or I destroy your party.” Loads of Republicans have no problem with that, because he brings in the votes for their “safe” districts, but Republicans like McConnell know that 1) this is not a two-way street. It’s lose-lose for Republicans long-term, because they either give him unwavering fealty and lose their own power in the process, or they go their own route and get voted out.
At the same time, in many many states, Republicans at the state level are passing new laws to prevent Democrats from being able to vote, which would secure their hold on power even while their voters are running for the hills.
So it’s lose-lose for Republicans at the federal level, win-win for Republicans at the state level (at least for as long as they can suppress turnout).
The only way for Republicans to hold on to power in the long-run is to end democracy, which is lose-lose for everyone except Trump.
@Jason Boyce Biden is already countering Arizona and Georgia’s attempts to stifle voter rights, thankfully.
@sorry. i wish him luck but i don’t think there’s much he can do. the constitution is weak against these kinds of things because it was designed by people who never thought people would elect folks who would work against their vote. i’m not terribly optimistic that we’ll get out of this, but we will definitely know in 10 years or less if we will be a democracy or an apartheid state
I love it. I hope trump puts them out
Trump: “I’m so rich. Please send me money.”
Trumpists: “Sounds like a great deal”
@W Bush Instead you all decided to believe the failed real estate clown from New York City , so half a million people died and the economy collapsed … even peanut brained bush 43 was smarter than that … USA , 23 in world educational rankings … and falling
well i’ve only got $5.00 left in my account but i think he needs it more than i do
@W Bush what a wanker !
@W Bush bot says you’re a wanker aswell – he’s a good judge of character by all accounts…..
@PATTY PERRY lol
