In an identical rehash of Republican Senator Mitch McConnell’s purge of Tea Party populism in 2012, a decade later Mitch McConnell gives his perspective on the 2022 midterm election by saying the MAGA populists were just too extreme for independent voters. If only, the professionally political would have listened to his program and made the white wine spritzer crowd comfier, Republicans would have won.
This is the exact same playbook McConnell used in 2012 to align with his Democrat party friends and destroy the Tea Party movement. Those who wear sweaters on their shoulders and live amid the high-minded tribes, were just “too frightened” of the unwashed Republican candidates in 2022. Seriously, those are his words, “too frightened.” WATCH:
Most casual political observers have absolutely no idea how McConnell works. However, for over a decade CTH has been trying –mostly failing– to awaken the base of commonsense voters. In 2010, 2011 and 2012 the #1 priority for McConnell was to destroy the threat represented by the Tea Party. In 2022 we are seeing an exact replay of the same intents and purposes, only this time the target is President Trump’s MAGA movement.
Keep in mind this is the same Mitch McConnell who was challenged by the audience during a 2017 Rotary Club meeting in Kentucky, about why he refused to support the election priorities of President Trump. McConnell responded, “I’d ask for a show of hands, but I know everybody’s saying, ‘been there, haven’t done anything,’ which I find extremely irritating — and I’m going to tell you why.”
McConnell continued, “a Congress goes on for two years. Part of the reason I think that the storyline is that we haven’t done much is because, in part, the president and others have set these early timelines about things need to be done by a certain point,” he said. Then came the kicker, “our new president, of course, has not been in this line of work before, and I think had excessive expectations about how quickly things happen in the Democratic process.”
Ah, the customs, traditions and parliamentary norms of the Senate were to blame for republican intransigence on the Trump agenda. President Trump held “excessive expectations” as to what could be done to support the America-First agenda in the senate.
According to Mitch McConnell, it was Trump’s fault for thinking a Republican majority Senate would work to support the American middle-class.
Comments like that reveal for most what the true motive of Senator McConnell is all about. It is a motive and agenda all wrapped up in the senate power structure.
McConnell does not fear being in the minority; the color of the flag atop the spire of the UniParty Senate does not matter to those underneath it. McConnell maneuvers with just as much power in the minority as he does in the majority.
In fact, McConnell makes more money selling his DeceptiCon caucus votes to Chuck Schumer (on behalf of Wall Street) than he does in the majority where he is forced to purchase them.
Indeed, the entire scheme is a rigged game, as Christopher Bedford realized last year and wrote in The Federalist [SEE HERE] after Mitch McConnell delivered his post-election impeachment floor speech. A ploy to destroy the MAGA movement with Trump removed:
