Original Article

Outgoing Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) said former President Trump has hurt the Republican Party’s ability to compete and that the “MAGA movement is completely wrong.” “I think Trump was the biggest factor in changing the Republican Party from what Ronald Reagan viewed and he wouldn’t recognize today,” McConnell said, according to a new biography penned by Michael Tackett of The Associated Press. These excerpts were first reported Thursday by CNN. McConnell said Trump has “done a lot of damage to our party’s image and our ability to compete.” “Trump is appealing to people who haven’t been as successful as other people and providing an excuse for that,

When politicians stay in Washington too long they are ruined. I don't know if it is something in the water or if they get involved in crooked schemes and become vulnerable to blackmail. I thank Mitch for keeping Merrick Garland off the Supreme Court. I can't think of anything else to thank him for.

McConnell, the people tell you what is right, not you telling us what is right or wrong. The reason we want you gone is that you do not listen, especially to your constituent Republicans. What a close headed buffoon! You cannot hide with the internet these days. Now everyone knows what you are, McConnell, and want you gone!

If my memory serves me correctly, Mitch did a good job shepherding Trump's Supreme Court appointees through the Senate, in spite of the awful and scurrilous Democ'RAT opposition. That's a big thing. Other than that, he joined the UniParty many years ago. I will not miss him.

“I think Trump was the biggest factor in changing the Republican Party from what Ronald Reagan viewed and he wouldn’t recognize today,” McConnell said. Next, we will hear McConnell is endorsing Harris. McConnell has no business putting words in Reagan's mouth. Strongly suspect Reagan would totally DISAGREE with McConnell. Under McConnell, the Republican party has slowed morphed into the Democratic party. Reagan made sure the Republican party was a separate alternative from the Democratic party. So does Trump.

Hello to all the "less successful" people on this site who support PDJT. Elitist Mitch sure knows how to sling crapola. Methinks he's a tad worried that his dealings with and corrupt connections to the Chinese will surface soon. (For all who are old enough to remember ~ cue the "Dragnet" theme) Staring into the Abyss, are we Mitch?? Luke 8:17; 12:3 The internal polls must be devastating. Their panic is palpable.

Sounds like Mitch didn't remember the 11th commandment President Reagan mentioned about not speaking ill of your fellow Republicans. Or, how if you agreed 85% with the candidate, they were a friend. Presume Mitch enjoys being in the Minority Party and not looking to grow the party either.

Mitch, when you bring no facts, no reasoning, just "Trump bad," I can't give you any credence. Yes, Jan 6 was terrible, but you have never adduced any facts to prove that Trump's action was the cause of it. To me, it appears that a perfectly legal rally, which included a perfectly legal speech, which was followed by a perfectly legal presence at the Capitol where there was woefully inadequate security as engineered by Trump haters and capitol police firing flash bang grenades into a perfectly peaceful crowd, with the crowd containing agents provocateurs who removed signs, fences, and urged the crowd toward the Capitol with bull horns, none of whom have been prosecuted for those crimes, devolved into a perfectly predictable and engineered riot. So, if all you've got is what you said, pipe down and crawl back to your Chinese oligarch in laws.

McConnell has done more damage to the Republican Party than anyone has. He has destroyed Republican senate candidate chances whenever he didn't like their views or didn't think he could control them. As a result, we have let the democrats have the senate when we could have easily won. As leader, he has also given the democrats just about everything they wanted and roadblocked Republican presidents from achieving their goals. So, for him to say Trump had hurt the party is not only comical but exposes him for what he is, an arrogant Rino who puts his power and self over the Republican Party and the country.

No, Mitch, Trump is not the problem. It is you and other Republicans like Paul Ryan who turn your backs on the hard-working men and women who have supported and donated to the party only to find our values ridiculed and demeaned. We have awakened and will not put up with the Uniparty tactics any longer. It may take us a while to clean out the Augean Stable in DC but understand WE WILL DO IT.

In 2016 Trump carried the Presidency and Congress in a huge victory, but Mitch and his fellow traitor Paul Ryano blockaded him, except for the three Supremes. This showed that the old GOP was corrupt and serving mostly itself. Success to most politicians is not improving the lives of the people who voted for them, but getting re-elected. As some wag also said, politics is Hollywood for ugly people

Yes McConnell derailed the Garland appointment. And yes he ushered through Trump's judicial picks. But ladies and gentlemen, THAT WAS HIS FRIGGIN' JOB. McConnell has done more harm to Trump and most importantly to the country than the good he has done just doing his job competently. And I agree with poster 25, he and his Chi Com wife are not only wrong about everything. Remember she was the first one along with Betsy DeVos to resign purportedly because of Trump's January 6 issue. But quite frankly he and the frau are corrupt from top to bottom. We should be taking bets on who took more money from the Chi Coms, Mr. and Mrs. McConnell or the Biden family. I'll bet it's reaaaaal close. His reign as a Senate leader can't come quickly enough.

The way the presidential candidates are wrapping up their campaigns could not be more different. Former President Donald Trump is ending on the positive message that he will solve the country’s problems. Vice President Kamala Harris, increasingly desperate, is repeating her rant that Mr. Trump is bad. It’s generally true in politics that it’s better to motivate people to vote in favor of ideas rather than against something. This should tell you that Mr. Trump thinks he’s ahead while Ms. Harris knows she’s behind. Everyone who will vote in the Nov. 5 contest has lived through both administrations.

I like voting absentee, and I got my ballot in the mail a couple of weeks ago. I’ve spent a lot of time staring at it, not thrilled about my choices at the top of the ticket. That is, until lately. Vice President Kamala Harris, her surrogate Democrats and the left-leaning legacy media are all making me – a conservative who is not MAGA in any way – actively want to vote for former President Donald Trump. And I know I’m not alone. Harris and her fellow liberals are starting to sound a lot like the Democrats did in 2016, and it’s a huge turnoff to voters like me.

If Vice President Kamala Harris loses North Carolina, she will lose the election. This will not be because North Carolina’s 16 electoral votes will push her over the 270-vote threshold. Rather, a Harris loss in North Carolina will signal the abandonment of two key constituencies — Black men and blue-collar manufacturing workers — also critical to her victory in other battleground states. In the early stage of Ms. Harris’ Democratic National Convention coup, where she ripped the nomination out of President Biden’s weakened hands, anxiety rippled through the Trump camp. Suddenly, Ms. Harris’ momentum erased a large Trump lead. Unexpectedly, Trump-red North Carolina morphed into Harris blue.

A new national poll is the latest to indicate former President Trump with an edge over Vice President Harris in the race to succeed President Biden in the White House. Trump grabs 47% support among likely voters nationwide, with Harris at 45%, according to a Wall Street Journal survey released on Wednesday evening - on a ballot that also includes third-party and independent candidates. That's a switch from the Journal's previous national survey - conducted in late August - which indicated Harris with a two point edge.

Vice President Kamala Harris released her "Opportunity Agenda for Black Men" this week, but some of her proposals could be considered unconstitutional, according to top legal analysts. Harris unveiled the five-point plan last week, which includes providing 1 million forgivable loans of up to $20,000 for "Black entrepreneurs and others who have historically faced barriers to starting a new business." Another proposal includes funding and capital for vocational training "to help expand pathways for Black men to get good-paying jobs." Programs that distribute resources based on economic disadvantage and race have lost challenges in court.

“Democracy dies in darkness” is the Washington Post’s slogan, but can it handle the light? The Post has been doggedly portraying the election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris as a choice between tyranny (Trump) and democracy (Harris). Yet when it commissioned a poll on threats to democracy shortly before the election, it did not quite work out. Voters in swing states deem the greater threat to democracy to be Kamala Harris, who is running on a “save democracy” platform.The poll sampled 5,016 registered voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

A trio of Senate Democrats, Casey, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden, issued a letter Monday to the CEO of McDonald’s, slamming the company for reported price gouging, just one day after Trump worked the fryer at a franchise of the fast-food chain during a campaign event Feasterville, Pennsylvania.

A new study led by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) found a large amount of lithium reserves in southwestern Arkansas that could help meet rising demand for lithium in electric vehicle car batteries. USGS worked with the Arkansas Department of Energy and the Environment's Office of the State Geologist to examine a geological unit known as the Smackover Formation to determine the amount of lithium in brines that are co-produced during oil and gas exploration. The study estimated that there are between 5 million and 19 million tons of lithium reserves present in the formation.

Outgoing Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) said former President Trump has hurt the Republican Party’s ability to compete and that the “MAGA movement is completely wrong.” “I think Trump was the biggest factor in changing the Republican Party from what Ronald Reagan viewed and he wouldn’t recognize today,” McConnell said, according to a new biography penned by Michael Tackett of The Associated Press. These excerpts were first reported Thursday by CNN. McConnell said Trump has “done a lot of damage to our party’s image and our ability to compete.” “Trump is appealing to people who haven’t been as successful as other people and providing an excuse for that,

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Thursday on CNN’s “The Source” that she found it “so distressing” Americans would vote for former President Donald Trump. Clinton said, “Here we are. It’s 12 days before the election of the President of the United States of America. It’s absolutely bonkers that we are talking about what he might do to violate the law to punish his political opponents. I mean, this is so un-American. I’ve been around longer than you have, and I’ve agreed and disagreed with presidents, Democrats and Republicans over a lot of decades. I was on the impeachment inquiry staff that investigated President Nixon

Hillary Clinton is comparing Donald Trump's upcoming Madison Square Garden rally to the 1939 pro-Nazi event at the same iconic location. Trump's 2016 Democratic rival is still out railing against him and warning Americans against giving him another term with just 12 days left until Election Day. The former Secretary of State said Trump is seeking to 'reenact' the Nazi rally that took place in the New York City venue just over six months before the start of World War II.The video player is currently playing an ad.

A major department store has silently removed the word 'Christmas' from its iconic gift catalogue - and workers are blaming 'woke politics' for the change. For the first time ever, Neiman Marcus has rebranded its 98-year-old 'Christmas Book' gift catalogue, which has now been called a 'Holiday Book'. The retailer had previously stated, following the Covid-19 Pandemic, that the 'Christmas Book is tradition' and something for shoppers to look forward. 'Christmas is a time of celebration and our Christmas Book is about celebrating. It's part our legacy and if you look back at our history, our founders and our brand, we've always been very strong about belonging and inclusion,'

Former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams has said that Vice President Kamala Harris has been facing sexism and racism from black men. Abrams made an appearance on CNN wherein she was asked to comment on Georgia pastor Jamal Bryant saying that misogyny has been hurting the black community. “Full stop misogyny is still real in our community. We’ve got to address it head-on and not act like it doesn’t exist. The reality is if black men had voted, Stacey Abrams would be a governor,” Bryant said.

Michelle Obama's voter mobilization campaign is turning to drag queens and free prize draws in a bid to boost voter turnout in key battleground states. The former first lady founded When We All Vote in 2018 and the organization is planning to host 500 'Party at the Polls' events before election day. The events will take place across states including Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Nevada. One such event in Arizona, which took place on October 18, featured Drag Out the Vote, a group of drag performers advocating for LGBTQ+ voters. Notable drag queens such as Barbra Seville, crowned 'Miss Gay Southern America,' and Afrika America led the show.

Kamala Harris took the entire day off from the campaign trail on Tuesday to sit down for prerecorded interviews with NBC News and Telemundo. Harris’s interview with NBC News was a total dumpster fire and her interview with Telemundo was not any better. Telemundo’s Julio Vaqueiro asked Kamala Harris if she expects to get the results on election night. Harris once again said it may take more than one night to count ballots. The Democrats can’t win unless they cheat.

Samuel L. Jackson said he can get behind Vice President Kamala Harris' candidacy because they share the same favorite curse word. The potty-mouthed actor didn't actually say the expletive while on stage campaigning for Harris in a star-studded rally in Clarkston, Georgia on Thursday, but he mumbled enough of the letters for supporters to guess. 'We've heard her favorite curse word is a favorite of mine too,' Jackson divulged. 'But I ain't gonna say mothafu – that word.' 'I don't know about you, but that's the kinda president I can stand behind. That's the kinda president I could see leading our country forward,'

In yet another unhinged display of partisan hysteria, MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski managed to cram every left-wing buzzword into one of her wildest rants to date. Desperation was written all over her face as she took to the airwaves, repeating debunked narratives and painting an apocalyptic picture of a future Trump presidency. What followed was a meltdown for the ages, complete with comparisons to Hitler, absurd claims about “fascism,” and even the ridiculous assertion that Trump is somehow “killing women.”

On Wednesday night, another “October Surprise” story against Donald Trump dropped, and like the others, it doesn’t pass the smell test. According to the story, which The Guardian published, a former model named Stacey Williams, “who says she met Donald Trump through the late sexual abuser Jeffrey Epstein... has accused the former president of groping and sexually touching her in an incident in Trump Tower in 1993, in what she believed was a ‘twisted game’ between the two men.” It was curious that after it broke, I couldn’t find any domestic media outlets that had picked it up.

I like voting absentee, and I got my ballot in the mail a couple of weeks ago. I’ve spent a lot of time staring at it, not thrilled about my choices at the top of the ticket. That is, until lately. Vice President Kamala Harris, her surrogate Democrats and the left-leaning legacy media are all making me – a conservative who is not MAGA in any way – actively want to vote for former President Donald Trump. And I know I’m not alone. Harris and her fellow liberals are starting to sound a lot like the Democrats did in 2016, and it’s a huge turnoff to voters like me.

Another dangerous lie. Tim Walz traveled to Duke University in Durham, North Carolina on Thursday with just 12 days to go until the election. “Right now, you’re not talking about the next four years,” Walz told the students. “You’re talking about the next 40 years.” Walz fearmongered about non-existent manmade ‘climate change.’ “The reason you’re here is, you’re not going to let some old people who are going to be dead long before climate change does the destruction that it’s going to be — you need to take charge of it,” Walz said. Walz told the young co-eds that women’s lives are “literally” at risk.
