RINO, NEO-CON, “SWAMP TURTLE” MITCH McCONNEL THROWS IN THE TOWEL, WILL NOT SEEK RE-ELECTION

 

Watchman comment: As you know, I always say there is a reason why politicians stay in the House and Senate into their 80s and it isn’t an honest reason!  I will admit Mitch did a good job in regard to selecting federal judge.

Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has announced he will not seek re-election in 2026. McConnell, 83, has occupied the U.S. Senate for 40 years, including stints as Senate Majority Leader, and is the longest-serving Senate party leader in history, controlling the Senate GOP for 18 years from 2006 to 2024.

During the last two decades, "Cocaine Mitch" did everything to sabotage real conservatives. He was a supporter of "red flag" gun control laws. He was a big supporter of many neo-con endless wars over the years, including Biden's current war in Ukraine. He supported the government's Unconstitutional domestic spying programs. He did not object to Covid lockdowns or vaccine mandates, unlike most his fellow conservative constituents. Mitch notice was notoriously silent and accepting of a lot of Unconstitutional policies of the deep state federal bureaucracy over the years, so Mitch is one of the reasons the derogatory label RINO aka "Republican In Name Only" came into existence.

McConnell’s father-in-law’s company, Foremost Maritime, put Mitch at the center of controversy years ago when 90 pounds of cocaine were confiscated by Colombian authorities on one of Foremost Maritime’s ships. His family created millions of jobs for people in China, and while doing so, Mitch got very rich.

When a real conservative populist President got elected back in 2016, Mitch often colluded with Democrats to slander Trump with lies such as repeating fully discredited "Russia collusion" propaganda.

Following Trump’s November election win, he complained that the “America First” slogan is “the same” as the rhetoric of Adolf Hitler’s National Socialists in 1930s Germany. However, Mitch did help and allow the Supreme Court to go Conservative, with Kavanaugh, Gorsuch and the fickle Amy, and for that he should be blessed.

Since President Trump’s second inauguration, he has consistently, but usually unsuccessfully, attempted to block key Cabinet picks, such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard. He has few supporters among Republican voters anymore, with around three-quarters wanting him gone as long ago as 2023.

McConnell’s upcoming disappearance from the political scene is a welcome development. Over the last several years, he has lashed out at President Trump on several occasions and attempted to end his political career. His position has been made even less tenable by semi-regular health crises. On more than one occasion, he has frozen while addressing the press, having to be ushered away from podiums by handlers while stricken silent.

McConnell’s retirement opens up a critical Senate seat in Kentucky, which has consistently supported Republican candidates in recent elections. The decision is likely to set off a competitive race among potential successors within the Republican Party, and prompt interest from Democratic challengers aiming to flip the seat.
