The Turtle is going to get Trump.

[Are_grits_groceries]

In some sneaky way, he will zap him. I can't stand McConnell but he is not Trump's employee.
He is also ruthless and he will get even.

I hope they destroy each other.

55. 4 hours ago you posted this and no one's done a meme yet??

Cmon DU!!

[malaise]

4. I have box seats

[Are_grits_groceries]

5. Popcorn?

🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿

[malaise]

8. I had to switch to pistachios

The amount of popcorn needed for this administration is unhealthy particularly because I want butter on mine.

[Are_grits_groceries]

9. LOL

I guess I should switch it up too.

[malaise]

10. Seriously this is madness

on steroids
They are about to eat one another in public

[erronis]

32. Now that's gross. Stop it, you two!

[malaise]

48. LOL

[MontanaMama]

35. Because I'm a helper...

If you love butter on popcorn, and who doesn't? I just discovered organic butter flavored coconut oil at Costco this week. Tastes like heaven and doesn't have the nasty sat fat of butter! My current addiction is popcorn with a little drizzle of that butter ccnut oil, chopped fresh rosemary and sea salt. Thanks for the thread! I needed the laugh.

[malaise]

37. Must try that

sounds delish

I see the turtle's colleagues have come out defending him. The Con will learn Truthfully I hope they all learn - in prison

[MontanaMama]

44. Oh yell yes.

No
Popcorn
In
Prison

SAD!!

[malaise]

49. Sad for them

Happy for us

How does this all end?

[Generic Other]

56. Mock turtle soup and duc le' orange on the menu today

A hash of sorts.

[malaise]

58. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

DUzy

[smirkymonkey]

6. I despise McConnell, but I really hope he gives it to Trumpy good.

Can't wait to see how this little pissing match is going to pan out.

[malaise]

11. I can't wait for the Con to fire the turtle's wife

Hehehehehhe

[erronis]

33. But what if all of this is just theater? All directed from some console in a distant land?

Or maybe a bit closer? The Arms Of Krupp? Or Koch?

[Marthe48]

45. They probably both have prostate trouble

so more like a trickle contest. I hate them both :/

[Grammy23]

12. I do not like McConnell one little bit but

I like tRump even less. Since McConnell has been around the block in DC a few more times than tRump, he probably knows just a wee bit more about how things work there. And I suspect he is not too happy to be treated like an underling by tRump. So as this all plays out, I expect McConnell to have a few surprises up his sleeve that tRump will never expect or see coming. Maybe with luck, we'll all get a ring side seat as the match begins.

[NCjack]

14. Problem: McConnell is moving at turtle speed. nt

[Are_grits_groceries]

19. Revenge is a dish served cold.

He will probably plan and wait for the worst moment for Trump.

[Mme. Defarge]

16. The enemy of my enemy

is my friend.

[Paladin]

17. For years I've heard what a badass master politico McConnell is supposed to be.

How about some proof of it, Turtle Boy?

[Stonepounder]

20. Just who does Trump think would be running the impeachment trial?

Yes, the Chief Justice of SCOTUS is the judge, but who do you think would be the foreman of the jury?

[BigmanPigman]

21. People who know him said he won't take it personally and has been threatened worse.

Damn!

[leftofcool]

23. No he won't

He doesn't care.

[Honeycombe8]

25. No. McConnell doesn't care what Trump says. McConnell's wife has a position in Trump admin.

McConnell won't do anything to rock that boat.

[gademocrat7]

26. Waiting to see what happens.

Stocking up on popcorn and almonds.

[Me.]

27. Mutual Destruction

is the best solution

[SweetieD]

30. Can't see that happening.

[a kennedy]

31. From your lips to my ears........destroy each other......would love that. eom

[OliverQ]

34. I don't see McConnell doing anything. He's still a stooge and won't stand up to Trump.

[malaise]

40. We'll see

http://edition.cnn.com/2017/08/11/politics/cornyn-tweet-mcconnell-defense/index.html
<snip>
Leader Mitch McConnell's defense as the Kentucky lawmaker's relationship with President Donald Trump continues to deteriorate.
Sen. John Cornyn, the second-highest ranking Republican in the Senate, voiced support for McConnell on Twitter Friday, saying that "no one is more qualified" than the Senate majority leader to advance the President's legislative agenda.

"Passing POTUS's legislative agenda requires a team effort. No one is more qualified than Mitch McConnell to lead Senate in that effort," Cornyn tweeted.
"As Benjamin Franklin said: we can hang together or hang separately," the Texas Republican added in a separate tweet.
-----------------------------------------
Hang them together

[C Moon]

38. Putin better jump in and stop his two prize students from beating each other up.

[BainsBane]

39. David Brooks said

on NPR today, that McConnell should get his hands on whatever Putin is holding over Trump.

I hope Yertle takes him down.

[madinmaryland]

46. Putin is probably holding the same thing or similar over Yerlt.

[Xipe Totec]

41. BITTEN by a SNAPPING TURTLE!

[paleotn]

51. a cardinal rule of DC politics...

Presidents don't tell Senators to do anything...period...end of story. Particularly Senate majority leaders. I bet McTurtle told 45 to shove his agenda where the sun never shines, and rightly so.

[cwydro]

52. Omg!

[iamateacher]

54. Look at McCain

He got his revenge. Mitch, wait until the time is right...

[still_one]

57. His wife works for trump

[spanone]

59. trump will get nothing done....if mitch deems it so

[DFW]

60. McTurtle probably prefers Ayatollah Pence anyway

I don't see an impeachment in the imminent future, but if it comes to that, Trump had better hope that Pence leaves office before he does, because McTurtle will "tragically" not find the support in the Senate to vote for acquittal after this.

Well, MAYBE if a 3000 square foot luxuriously furnished apartment with a $12.50 per year lifetime lease on the 50th floor of the Trump Tower in Manhattan should open up, then McTurtle might be more forgiving..............

[liberal N proud]

61. The turtle values party power over all else

Besides the Hair is white, sort of!
