Mitch McConnell would like a "pow-wow" with his fellow accomplices.

[kentuck]

The sh*t is getting real.

Republicans are running behind in states that are usually safe for them, like Georgia and Texas.

Not only could Republicans lose their majority in the Senate, but Mitch would no longer be Majority Leader. In fact, he may not even win his race in Kentucky?

The reason they are behind in these states is Donald Trump. If they stay on the Trump wagon, it is very possible, even likely, that some of them will not be in the US Senate after the election.

What should they do?

[Laelth]

1. Punt. It's 4th down and a hundred thousand dead people to go.

Seriously. This is a no-brainer. Punt the ball and let Democrats run the country for a while.

-Laelth

[tinrobot]

21. You may be right. Burn it down, then point fingers at Democrats for not acting quickly enough.

That's pretty much what they did last time.

[Laelth]

23. That's about all they can do. n/t

-Laelth

[Ponietz]

2. Seppuku?

[Laelth]

6. Admittedly, that would be the honorable thing to do. n/t

-Laelth

[albacore]

16. Only if they use the horizontal AND vertical cuts. A LOT of shame to atone for. nt

[Ponietz]

27. No seconds then

[albacore]

32. Nope... gotta do the WHOLE thing. nt

[Cirque du So-What]

17. Not in repug culture

They’d sooner hire someone to commit seppuku in their place.

[flor-de-jasmim]

22. I'll settle for resignation and restitution of illegally obtained monies (for himself and others)

[FakeNoose]

3. They should ALL lose theirs jobs

They deserve to go down, and many/most of them will do just that.

No GOP incumbent deserves to be re-elected. Not one.

[redstatebluegirl]

8. I love the Joe Mentum picture in your signature line.

Trump wouldn't fit in the cockpit of a corvette.

[CrispyQ]

10. This: No GOP incumbent deserves to be re-elected. Not one.

[FakeNoose]

13. That has been my mantra for the last 3.5 years

[RobertDevereaux]

15. Precisely!

[BComplex]

11. FakeNoose: "No GOP incumbent deserves to be re-elected. Not one." Totally agree!!

And not for another 30 years should any republican be elected to any office. Not one.

[FakeNoose]

18. From your lips

... to the Deity's ears. Or something like that!

I believe we're witnessing the self-destruction of the Republican Party. It can't survive this, it has to disappear or at least quietly hibernate for a long time.

[BComplex]

24. I'd love to see Mitch, in particular, go down in flames in 2020.

Never to be heard from again on the political front. He has been part of the unholy trinity that has destroyed our country from the US side of the equation: Trump/Barr/McConnell. Russia has done their part from the other end of the the equation.

[BSdetect]

4. Let's hope they stick with him right to his end. Then we can deal with them without being nice.

[NCjack]

26. They should stick to the end, screaming their love for Donnie.

[Dustlawyer]

5. In Texas we almost never see Presidential campaign ads because we have been a given

for Republicans and written off by Democrats. This time we see Trump ads all over.

[BComplex]

12. Then the Lincoln Project needs to start showing ads in Texas.

Biggly!

[Dustlawyer]

20. That would be awesome! Since most here never hear our side of things it is impossible

to change their minds.

[BComplex]

30. When people hear what we want, and are in favor of, they usually want the same.

The media has purposely hidden our side of things since the Reagan years, and since the Fairness Doctrine put the media in the hands of 6 companies.

That's one reason I appreciate so much what Bernie Sanders did for the nation: He showed everyone an alternative to the corruption we have at the very top of the food chain in this country. He said it so well! People here can trash him all they want to, but he did this nation a big favor.

[unblock]

7. it's about time for them to adopt the "trump? who's that? i really don't know him" strategy

[kentuck]

9. What caused Pence to change his mind about wearing masks?

That was a surprise. Something must be afoot.

[dawg day]

19. I wonder... until yesterday pence couldn't even

Say "mask". Now he's all wearing one.

Pulling away from Trump? Thinks he might take over the ticket?

[kentuck]

28. That's a possibility.

That was quite a 180 for Pence?

[vlyons]

14. They should resign and go get a real job

assuming anyone would hire their filthy asses.

[Snackshack]

25. What should they do?

There is nothing they can do. They have attached themselves at the hip to DT and his policies. Mitch and the rest of the GOP can try to throw DT under the bus and try to distance themselves from DT now they have filled almost all of the vacant judicial seats but it will do no good. To much has happened to much damage has been done.

[hunter]

29. It's time for the Republican Party to die.

They can join the Libertarians, etc., in the peanut gallery.

California has been doing quite well without them.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

31. They stink to high heaven because their heads have been ....

so far up Trump's ass and from kissing it as they have been since January of 2017.

Who wants to get within 6 feet of them? Pun intended.

[Miguelito Loveless]

33. Losing jobs is not enough

for people like McConnell. Indictments and trials should be in the cards.
