Welcome to The Now

 

 

 Noteworthy because C-SPAN usually holds the commentary for their call-in segments. Here's the video in question. That said, it makes it harder for Republicans to attack Joe Biden's (obvious) decline without acknowledging McConnell's. 

 With very few options and a disastrous economic fallout looming due hesitation on raising the debt ceiling, President Biden has decided to pull out the big guns, aka, bank CEOs . And wouldn't you know it, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell now wants to deal .  Keep in mind that if Biden was the negotiator that he claimed to be during the 2020 presidential campaign, he wouldn't have needed to reach for such a big stick. 

 So while still on CNN, I came across this gem: Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is trying to get more Americans to get vaccinated .  Despite this effort, it may be hard to reach those who have...resisted...the vaccinations at this point. While most tend to lean GOP, a good number of that demographic are also Trump supporters . Trump, who has been vaccinated, couldn't even convince his own to follow suite . 

They get drunk off the crowd , and then think they can go back to DC and promote the most radical things . BTW, the GOP does not currently hold a majority in the Senate.

This guy has the nerve to say that Obama " g ot everything he wanted from a compliant for two of those three years " he was president. That is bullshit . In fact, one commenter points out that McConnell & Co. sent Harry Reid a "fuck you" letter pretty much saying the exact opposite. The man has threatened to block nominees . He said that having a debt deal would require Obama to get out of office . He was happy to see the American Auto Industry sink . He was (and still is) against health care reform . Mitch McConnell does not care about legislation or governing; he wants Obama out of the White House. And he's spent his entire time in the Senate working to achieve that goal.
