"Old Crow" McConnell Laughs Off Trump's Criticism

[kpete]

“Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is shrugging off Donald Trump’s campaign to oust him as the top Senate Republican, chuckling that he views ‘Old Crow,’ the former president’s derisive nickname for him, as a compliment,” the Washington Examiner reports.

Said McConnell: “It’s my favorite bourbon.”

He then turned to a staffer and asked: “Aren’t we using Old Crow as my moniker now? It was Henry Clay’s favorite bourbon.”

1. That's the best way to handle the idiot.

Laugh at him and turn his insults into badges of honor. I hate McConnell with the fire of a thousand suns but man I wish he was on our side.

Old Crow is awful though.

2. MoscowMith is 80 next week

The Slobfather will be 76 in four months - they are both old crows.
Still I’m glad to see MM laugh off stupid insults.
Fight ReTHUGs, fight!😀😀

5. Once again Trump is projecting. I think he's having trouble

accepting his advancing age. He’s so despicable no matter his age.

4. I, just like everyone here, dislike him soooo much

BUT I LOVE that he is telling Trump to go fuck himself!! He is actually a hero in the "fuck you Trump" arena!

7. As much as I disagree with just about everything Mitch says...

...I fucking disagree with this too! Old Crow is horrible fucking bourbon! Like $10 for a huge plastic 1.75 liter and overpriced at that! Its baaad! If thats turtle's favorite its no wonder he always has that sour look on his face!

8. "That's my favorite bourbon." LOL

I didn't think the turtle had a sense of humor.

9. Turtle man says, "It's my favorite Bourbon".

Way to go Mitch!
Just shit all over the other Kentucky bourbons. I’m sure Jim Beam’s will still give him some campaign money.

10. Mitch has a good sense of humor and he's a member of

the LOYAL opposition. Not the disloyal opposition.

11. Fuck him

Peeking your head out of the sand to oppose traitor trump after licking his nuts for 5 years and voting not to impeach earns ZERO points. Mitch thinks Trump cost him 2 senate seats in Georgia and if someone doesn't shut him up he fears 2022 will go similarly, thats the only reason he is suddenly acting like he has a spine after years of slithering like a worm, not because he is loyal to anything or has a sense of humor.

12. They forgot the "Jim" in that Moscow Mitch nickname

13. Talk about the pot calling the kettle ...

McConnell is an evil old bastard, but cognitively he is light years sharper than the rump.
