Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell will be doing himself no favors this week when he makes a rare joint appearance with President Joe Biden in his home state of Kentucky.
Then again, McConnell appears to have thrown caution to the wind when it comes to being concerned about agitating the Republican Party base — just before the Christmas break McConnell declared that former President Donald Trump’s “political clout has diminished,” and said the GOP “lost support that we needed among independents and moderate Republicans, primarily related to the view they had of us as a party — largely made by the former president — that we were sort of nasty

Mitch is Joes Margarita boy. Mitch well kiss joes Blarney Stone and do whatever Joe wants to prove once again republicans govern in a bipartisan manner. Which is a position of total weakness and fear.

McConnell blames Trump for the midterms when he and McDaniel's withheld RNC money from MAGA candidates. It was the same with the Tea Party, McConnell was opposed to the conservative base of the Party and worked against them. It makes me wonder what kind of GOP senators we have to support McConnell like they do. Until Donald Trump Republicans didn't nominate a real conservative for the presidency since Ronald Reagan because the establishment moderates coronated their losers (the Bushes, Dole, McCain, and Romney).

Couldn't even get calls answered or a face to face visit Biden when Repub legislation and priorities were being "Fought for"...now gets an AF1 victory lap trip to celebrate the total erasure of those same policies and priorities, and the total abdication of ANY fight whatsoever against Democrat priorities and spending. Celebrating the most recent Omnibus that grants another entire year of Democrat decided spending, devoid of Repub input, neutering the new Repub House..
Despicable dereliction

There are few people as despicable as the wholly owned Chinese Communist Party Asset, Mitch McConnell. I must point out once again that McConnell's wife and family are Billionaires who owe ALL their success to working with and for the CCP; Not to mention the $25,000,000 wedding gift McConnell received. Do you really think he gives a Rat's A** about America?

Kentuckians, we need you to peacefully show up at this event with clever signs and make it clear that you are opposed to both of these men and for good cause. Joe and Mitch must pay a price for their treasonous behavior, the massive debt they have put on the shoulders of future generations, and the anti-American policies they both advance. They need to see and hear the power of the people. No one likes to be ridiculed or booed, but it is a very effective tool to use in getting a point across. Make their public lives miserable. Never allow them to appear in public without a peaceful protest waiting for them. It should be an honor to express your feelings about these two. Protest for everyone of us who are unable. Turn this event into a disaster for them. Peacefully, of course.

Mitch is delivering the bacon to Kentucky. Joe signed the bill. The Kentuckians will cheer. It's garden variety politics.

Just checked the FAA's TFR (Temporary Flight Restrictions) website. Looks like the cowardly McConnell will make his joint appearance with Xiden at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport - instead of flying into Louisville Int'l or Lexington Bluegrass (where McConnell's gotta know he'll be mercilessly booed.)
No TFRs for Standiford Louisville Int'l (yet) but one for tomorrow for Cincinnati issued on behalf of the Secret Service.

Two ancient, creaking, weak, buffoonish so long serving DC swamp rats. One a deomcrat the other a republican. Both born the same year and named after their daddies. Both corrupt, despicable Chicom bought cartoonish clowns who've sold out We the People 100 times over. Cecil the Turtle and Mister Potato Head are two peas in the same fetid pod and deserve each other.

There was a "Similar" instance back in '94-'95, Clinton invited Newt along for a trip...promising one on one , face to face time to discuss major issues, instead Newt was relegated to the back of the plane, and ignored, there was no talk/talk, and then he was told he had to go out the rear door with the staff, AFTER the press had already left. Newt got thoroughly bashed by the press for being upset by this.
Question: Is Sharrod Brown along as well? Or Portman?

China Mitch. He works for China, not the American people. He has gone through his last election ever, and doesn't give one damn about what anyone thinks now. No more need to worry about appearances.

Biden and McConnell no doubt are a couple of decades old US Senate and DC “UniParty” buddies who are well versed in all the angles of DC public corruption and know that when Congress passes a bill that throws billions up for grabs that if they play their cards right some of that money is likely to come their way.

Sumbitch Mitch seems to be about one step away from becoming a tedious successor to Liz Cheney...
