I must say that the Magats understand politics. Rand Paul just held up aid to Ukraine so Mitch immediately travels to Kyiv.
He took along a concerned Susan Collins, and John Barrasso, and John Cornyn.
Zelenskyy gave a statement that the trip shows bi-partisan support for Ukraine. (barf) The only reason the Magats show support for Ukraine is because their internal polling tells them to do so.
The Putin party still pledges allegiance to Putin puppet Donald Trump, regardless of the trip.

(6,008 posts)whether they're parroting putins propaganda, like Empty-G, or actually hindering our aid to Zelensky, like rand paul.
Democrats - ignore this photo-op and continue to hammer the republican party for what they're letting the putin loving wing of their party do.

McCarthy, Greene, and Boebert should go next.

McTurtle and his gang are perfectly safe in Ukraine. Probably special orders from Putin to his troops to protect his puppets.

(21,264 posts)Until a GQP member publicly disavows his/her allegiance to Putin puppet Trump, they are all complicit with Russia.
Just because GQP internal polling tells them to show support for Ukraine does not let them off the hook.

(10,039 posts)The dems and the administration have made different trips to Ukraine to help understand what funding is needed for and to put in place some oversight on how funding is used. The republicans don't want to be shown up, or they have some meetings with some high ranking Russians planned on their way in or out.

Someone ask McDonnell why HIS coharts and propaganda network are praising Putin. Ask him why his GQP go to rallies where they chant Putin. He is so fuckin Phony. Guess his debunked aluminum factory just aint gonna get done.
