Republican voters are desperately concerned about the country and are looking for bold and persuasive leadership instead of comfort with a few small, intermittent successes... Comments Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell made on Tuesday show why he has become the single biggest obstacle to GOP success.
The Kentucky Republican claimed giving more money to Ukraine is “the No. 1 priority for the United States right now...
The comment about Republican priorities is so false as to be completely delusional.

The GOP is dead. Bury the corpse. Time for a new party. Voting Republican is very little better than voting for Communist Democrats.
Quite frankly, I’m not sure voting at all matters anymore.

The Republican voting base is solidly conservative!!!
But the Republican "leadership" are a bunch of RINO Republi-Can't lie-berals who lie to get elected and then stab the conservative base in the back over and over and over again!!!
It is time to put the Republican Party out of its pathetic misery and start a new conservative American Patriot's Party -- with real conservative leadership!!!!!

A recent article posted here said it best - the Republican elites despise their base. Until we get rid of the RINOs in charge, there's no point in voting Republican. The recent "omnibus" bill is a case in point - crafted by the Democrats, and larded up with pork by the Republicans and Democrats, passed with votes from both, and we get screwed, blued, and tattooed.

This is the same political party that did not have the spine or wherewithal to overturn ObamaCare. How many of these multi thousand page bills have we seen pass on the past several years? The GOP is now useless and with McConnell supporting Ukraine they are openly nurturing and supporting a neonazi regime run by oligarchs.

The Turtle epitomizes everything that is wrong with Washington. His constituency is himself. He married money and is out of touch with the average voter. He wants the Democrats and DC elite to like him so he goes along to get along. One question--why do the Democrats never compromise or care what Republicans think of them?

I don't credit McConnell for any judges. We gave the votes to put him in a position to get RINO judges appointed. We have gotten little from so called "conservative" judges. They won't even hear our cases.

some way or another there has to be a schism in the senate repubs until Hong Kong Mitch is ousted, I have no faith that will happen and am totally disgusted with these 50 people, they are a disgrace and the people they represent should be ashamed they elected them to office

RINOS — McConnell and Pence — and progressive Dems like China Jobama are destroying America. Only this Musk, who I'd never heard of before last week) and Donald Trump can save America — if only we'll let them get busy.

I dislike McConnell much more than Schumer. With Schumer, there are no pretenses. He is a communist. McConnell and the stuffed shirts who stand with him pretend to be Republicans and they have contempt for the conservative voting block. McConnell did one thing right in the past 10 years. He kept Garland off the Supreme Court. He somewhat cancelled that by voting to confirm gestapo Garland as AG.

The GOP is a sham party that exists only to provide the illusion of choice. Freedom can never be restored as long as the Republican Party exists to run interference for the totalitarian socialists.

You have to wonder how Mitch ever got elected to public office in the first place. Too many of our politicians are in public service to serve themselves rather than the public. Mitch is one of those people. I remember some politician saying, "Everyone can be bought or black-mailed". That holds true for a high percentage of those we have in public office, and our mid-term elections again showed us that really fine candidates cannot replace the losers because our election system is so rigged.
If members of Congress are not compromised, then how can they possibly vote for the Omnibus Bill? In the first place, why don't they change the rules so that they are given sufficient time to read and study and debate such a Monstrosity of Pork. The reason we cannot have election integrity is because too many of those in public office have no integrity,

I still donate to individual conservatives but I do not use the winred credit card process which blocks candidates the fascist regime does not approve of. I go direct to the websites and find the address for their state campaign and mail a check. I have zero confidence that a credit card payment will not be funneled off to whoever Ronna choses.

Addison Mitchell McConnell the 3rd is so detested by me that I refuse to call him by his middle name. Much like I don't call Hunter that name but use his first name Robert or much preferred Bobby. Addison number 3 is nothing but a long serving, DC swamp-rat, blue blood, feckless, sackless, arrogant, RINO putz. He backstabbed PDJT when the former put his support behind his fetid corpse getting re-elected to the Senate in 2020. His past performance during the 2022 midterms is further proof that "China Addi" cares more about his, his butt kissing funky Cornyn and other RINOs like Carlos Delecto aka Little Willard Romney staying in the Senate minority. That way he and his Chinese honeypot wife can get richer, he can continue to help out his buddies Snidely Whiplash Schumer and the Joetard push their reckless agenda and he can screw over We the People. People he truly hates. Like I said before right back at you "Mitch".

I dropped the GOP and my republican affiliation soon after they allowed the 2020 election to be stolen from Donald Trump and refuse to give them another dime. The emails and letters of solicitation keep coming and I can't seem to get them off me. Like dog poo on your shoe, they refuse to go away. Give it up, Ronna, you and your party are dead to me.

I am way beyond being satisfied with just having McConnell gone. The entire Republican Party has outlived its usefulness. They have no core beliefs, no courage, and are unredeemably, permanently corrupt. The ONLY reason they continue to exist is that they are the only potentially viable option to the criminal Democrat Party on election day.
That can't go on. Yes, I'm aware that any "new" party would splinter the vote further for multiple election cycles. But that no longer persuades me to keep doing this. I am seriously committing myself to finding or even developing a workable alternative that will reconnect this country to its great founding principles AND be led by intelligent, patriotic, and ethical leaders. You WILL hear more about this in the coming year.

#37, I have not been able to find a postal address to donate to the 2024 Trump Campaign by check. I would like to avoid Winred.
Trump should start a Legal Offense Fund like Lindell did. We need to preserve and reward the best President of modern times. Trump brought Peace and Prosperity, and spread the wealth throughout the fruited plain. Compare Trump’s achievements to what the Globalist BBB/NWO is doing now shutting down fertilizer, agriculture, oil and gas.

It's shocking how Mitch has been allowed to circumvent we the people - all we want is Constitutional priority! Period! How sold out is he, anyway? Is this all about his Chinese wife (Elaine Chow) and her ties to the CCP?
