Joe Biden Puts The Heat On Mitch McConnell's Plan To Obstruct Him

[ffr]

President-Elect Biden called any decision not to work together and obstruct a conscious decision in a message aimed at Mitch McConnell.

Biden doesn’t have to breathe fire at the Senate Majority Leader. The President-Elect has the winning message. He knows that the American people hate what the US Senate has become, and he is positioning McConnell to take the heat if he insists on not coming to the table and working with Democrats. - PoliticusUSA

If we work hard in Georgia and voters come out in droves like they just did, we can relegate Moscow Mitch to the waste bin of political history. He'll be irrelevant. Wouldn't that be dandy?!

1. Mitch is evil...

I hope he trips and falls and can't be a senator...

Well, I actually wish worse.

I need a voo-doo Mitch doll

2. If baby eating alien bugs fell to earth and all we needed was a budget for masses amounts of raid to

... kill then Moscow Mitch would say no and blames Biden for not working with him.

Biden will realize Moscow Mitch doesn't like america like he does

3. You sum it up

4. If Biden has a winning message you can be sure that the media will avoid mentioning it

in preference of both-siderism ad infinitum.

5. Joe is about to learn some hard lessons about his ol' buddy Mitch

Lessons that should have been evident over the last dozen years.

8. I believe that he learned all he needed

During his years as VP to President Obama. I don’t suspect he will waste much time on Mitch.

6. I love Biden

But this is a fruitless tree. In order for it to matter you would have to believe McConnell even cares but in reality he is just hate and despair shoved in a turtle shell of pettiness.
Rank and file, your normal voter, Republicans, are delusional cultists who will literally believe trump's lies, even on their death beds with all evidence and reality contradicting their beliefs.

I would love it if republicans could be reasonable and understanding but that isn't reality.

Not sure what the answer is but I know its not ever going to be holding hands and singing the Coke song with Republicans.

7. Here's the best way to get back at Mitch:

10. Fuck the Grim Reaper

11. If we win the GA seats, he'll be irrelevant

in the present, but his legacy will live on as a wet dream/strategy for conservative "governing" for a long time.

12. Fact is, this is a win-win for the Turtle

Assuming Ossoff and Warnock aren't both victorious (and I pray they are), then Mitch has nothing at all to lose by obstructing Biden the same way he did Obama. His base, the feckless rubes of the once great Commonwealth of Kentucky, will eat it up. And he knows that the seat he holds in the Senate will never be taken from him.

Our only hope is the 50/50 split, and even then we'll have to keep Joe Manchin on a very, very short leash.
