trump orders Republicans to get rid of Mitch; Republicans say no

[Otis Mayfield]

In the 11 months that have passed since Trump first called for the Kentucky Republican to be ousted -- suggesting shortly after his second Senate impeachment trial ended that it was time for the "unsmiling political hack" to be voted out of office -- McConnell's authority among Senate Republicans has neither waned nor has he faced the onslaught of blistering attacks from GOP hopefuls that Trump has been pining for.

As candidates refuse to disavow McConnell, Trump comes to terms with his grip on GOP

Donald Trump is facing weak support among Republicans for his calls to depose Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, and aides and allies say it's forcing the former President to confront new limitations on his influence over the party.

Key phrase, "it's been 11 months". Time to get a grip or get a life.

It's by far the biggest anti-Trump move by the Republicans yet.

It has to signal the end of Trump if it's actually true.

But is it? If it's divided then there will have to be a showdown that will decide which of them get the support. It has to be decided either way. I see no way of Trump being able to bite the bullet and share the stage with McConnell.
Just wanted to get that in before even reading the story for the details. So exciting!

edit: nothingburger after reading the first paragraph Otis.

The Republican establishment in Congress has been moving this nation away from democracy since the Reagan administration and towards a plutocracy.

The congressional Republicans have long opposed all legislation beneficial to average Americans, and the "moderate" corporate-controlled Democrats jumped on that same bandwagon beginning in the 1990s.

The first year of the Biden administration will end in about a week, and with "moderate" Democrats Joe Manchin and Kirsten Sinema leading them, the "moderate" corporate-controlled Democrats joined with the congressional Republicans to stymie all legislation that could have brought a level of prosperity to the American people not seen since the 1950s.

However, the billionaires and Big Business said a collective "No" to this, spoken through their puppets in the House and Senate, the same corrupt bastards that swore to represent the best interests of the voters back home. The same corrupt bastards that pass legislation that has given the billionaires and Big Business trillions of federal dollars in subsidies, forgivable federal loans, repeated tax cuts, and other forms of "wealthfare".

It's not government safety net programs that have pushed the national debt to more than $29 trillion, it's the theft of public money by the plutocrats' controlling Congress.

Trump's popularity with the trump Nazis poses a threat to the plutocrats' gravy train. So, while trump's time in the White House was fabulously profitable for the plutocrats, his desire to become dictator is a sore spot with those most benefitted by the status quo.

Trump represents no threat to the Plutocracy. He's a founding member. Trump funneled more money to millionaires and billionaires than any President in history.

No. No one cares.

They are not getting rid of McConnell, he is damn effective.

 

[monkrules]

Trump is a bully and a loudmouth. And, like most bullies, he's actually a weakling and a coward.

It takes no courage to act tough when you have money and people willing to do your "dirty work" for you. He's surrounded by an army of bodyguards. If the bodyguards weren't there, Trump would be meek as a kitten.

Sadly, Trump has convinced most cowardly Republican congressmen that he's a "tough" guy. So he's able to push most GOP pussies around like what they are - a bunch of lilly- livered sissies.

Sorry bout that,

1. I myself want Mitch and his bitch gone!
2. Seems like his wife got as a perk, a fancy job, with a fancy paycheck.

The threat to the plutocrats is trump's personal ambition to be dictator. He hinted at this regularly during his four disastrous years in the White House. His 74 million trump Nazis are eager to make him "der führer", and they are electing other devoted trump Nazis to Congress to guarantee this dream comes true. The Traitor Tots: Lauren Boebert, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, Madison Cawthorn and Paul Gosar are just the beginning. Many more will come with the 2022 Mid-terms.

The trump Nazis' dream includes creating a fascist state with white supremacy as its major component. But, their fascism poses a danger to the plutocrats' most valued free market capitalism, the protection the plutocrats are given by the GOP establishment and "moderate" Democrats, and the ever-widening income gap that assures wealth trickles up and at a constantly accelerating rate. It's just not good for business for the long-term to alter, in any way, the plutocracy/oligarchy now in place in the United States.

No, all politics are local.

Trump will remain the head of the GOP and popular among Republicans: McConnell will be Senate majority leader this time next year.

 

[chesswarsnow]

Sorry bout that,

1. No turtle boy will retract his head and disappear from the political arena.
2. GOP will rejoice!
3. China girl will retreat to, where else China!

We're sure you love Mitch.
That neo-Con asshole should have been gone years ago.

I don't love Mitch. Who's 'we', hivemind?

That neo-Con asshole should have been gone years ago.

Agreed.
