I'm sorry Mitch, you do not get to quibble about these details until you address the staggering amount of evidence that shows Trump engaged in, and apparently is STILL engaged in, conspiracy against the United States with our most prominent foreign adversary.

He will be found. He can run but can not hide.

senmcconell When is somebody going to ask Senator McConnell if he is a Russian asset?

When there’s real the going gets tough and there is real work to be done, cowards hide 😭😭😭

VOTERS SHOULD PAY STRONG ATTENTION TO MTCH MCCONNELL AND THE WAY HE IS HELPING TRUMP AGAINST OUR COUNTRY REPUBLICANS CAN'T HIDE THEIR FAILURES SENATORS CAN BE EXPELLED AND VOTERS SHOULD DEMAND IT ON THE REPUBLICAN TRAITORS LIKE TRUMP THAT DO NOT CARE FOR PEOPLE NOT GETTING PAID..

Old turtle is in hiding another old coot who should just resign can't even do his dam job

Reminder, mitch has the power to open the government.

senatemajldr remember the Federal Contractors. Furloughed without pay & no reimbursement. We work with Feds in vital jobs

Tortoise is gone for the season. Doesn't understand separation of powers twixt executive and legislative. Acts as if he is Trump's caddy.

So saith the worst Senate Majority leader of all time. The man who routinely says to the majority of the country on a routine basis.....'F' you! What I want is best.

It's a power showdown. The Democrats don't care about anything but winning. Let's shut down their paychecks and see what happens.

Useless !

The un-leader has two primary motivators: greed and fear. Lead, follow or get out of the way. A Practical Guide. eBook on Amazon. iBook on iCloud. Gordon Gekko was wrong. Greed is not good. FDR was right. “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself“. unleader1

you have to wonder if mcconnell has ever for a moment pondered his place in history, based on his behavior you’d have to think it unlikely, he’s not exactly going about trying to secure himself a place among the greats of that body

senatemajldr missing in action, not doing his job. It’s unacceptable.

Ridiculous! He should be voted OUT!

McConnell won’t vote on a plan because Trump will take blame if he veto’s it. So nothing will move past senate. What a useless hack. Vote the turtle out‼️

All the drumfkin has to do is reject all talks of reopening the government and his owner, Putin wins by destabilizing the American economy and showing the world that this particular god CAN bleed.

Mr Turtle 🐢 Has retracted into his rotting shell

Crazy SenMajLdr, Lyin’ LindseyGrahamSC,individual 1 love this. They love sabotaging theGovernment so later they can claim the Government doesn’t work.This TrumpsShutdown is a stunt to con all their dummies.Let’s not forgetThey’re trying to delay the investigations about Russia

Biggest loser is senatemajldr . He’s coward&betrayal to all Americans. Govt shutdown hurt Amer. of all political affiliations, he’s afraid of trump so chooses to serve Russian puppet instead of country. USSenate SenSchumer SpeakerPelosi maddow Lawrence SenWarren cnnbrk

he can't give in Trump has tooooo much info on his sexual oddities = blackmail

He has the power to end this shutdown. Why is he capitulating to a traitor?

We need to get rid of him in 2020...

Which McConnell has helped pull off some of the biggest crimes in our recent history. Stealing supreme court seats along with other crimes

It is clear Mitch has the power to reopen the government, but he would rather follow Putin’s objectives in dismantling the US government.

Our potus has talked his way into a corner he can’t get out of. Now, true to his infantile persona, he can only lash out attacking those who just sat there and watched him do this to himself. Sooner or later mcconnell and gop will have to grow a set and deal with the man child...

Where's Yertle? 'Peckerhead'

McConnell discharged from the service in 1967 under a 'cloud.' Evidently has difficulty telling 'boy' from 'girl'. Thanks to Senator Cooper 'discharge' labeled medical. Are all Republicans reptiles?

Can some reporters please go and find this guy?!? Wtf

McConnell can do it, he can reopen the shutdown. He's not beholding to Trump. Or is he?

Turtles are cowards.

No Wall . . . No Government!!! PSBArmy

This shut down is irreparably injuring the Independent Judiciary's streamlined FUNCTIONING, thereby VIOLATING the PROCEDURAL DUE PROCESS RIGHTS of every litigant in Federal court. No reporting on that FACT, eh? No, only the 'personal narrative' of McConnell. Sad, even.

Does McConnell realize that he is working for the American people and not for the President?

If there are enough votes for a veto, there are enough votes to impeach Mitch. He won’t even act in concert with many of his fellow GOP. The Constitution was specifically designed so that no one person could control the Government.

He's doing Russia's bidding as well. Helping keep America in disarray while Russia finishes its invasion of Ukraine.

Seriously. McConnell’s gonna be lucky if the food service that feeds congress doesn’t spike his food order with laxative. It would be entirely justified. I assume they have a Cafeteria, just as I assume someone has spit in his food more than once. 🤷‍♂️

Has McConnell forgotten about overriding a veto. Vote to reopen the government. If Trump vetoes it, override the veto. Congress needs to take back their power.

the turtle is hiding in his shell... mwahahaha

Where have you gone senatemajldr our nation turns its lonely eyes to you. DoYourJob EnoughIsEnough SRuhle KatyTurNBC BrianKarem WillieGeist MSNBC maddow RepRaskin JillWineBanks

All he cares about is seating right-wing judges. Figure out a way to hold him up on that front and he’ll start to deal.

Just what the Vladster ordered. Good work, agent Mitch!

Bring the vote to the floor

Mitch McConnell: He's either participating in or heading up the new Federal Witless Protection Program. Both?

Hard to believe a guy who hasn't worked a day in the last 10 years is married to the former Sec. For Labour... senatemajldr SecElaineChao

If it helps, feed him lettuce. Turtles get shelly when they're hungry. TuesdayThoughts TuesdayFeeling Resist
