The “Enemy of The people,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, says the Senate will vote on ‘Green New Deal’ as he seeks to portray Democrats as radical:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Tuesday that he will schedule a vote on the Green New Deal, a sweeping climate and economic plan spearheaded by first-year Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) as he tries to portray Democrats as radical ahead of the 2020 election.
Cough! Say what now? Mitch McConnell accusing anyone other than himself of being a radical is a sick joke.
UPDATE: Tom Toles nails it. Being wrong on climate wasn’t enough. Now Mitch McConnell wants to be cute about it too.
When Barak Obama was elected president at the height of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression and Americans were truly frightened, Mitch McConnell summed up his plan to the National Journal: “The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president.” McConnell was the architect of partisan “total obstruction” at a time of great national crisis.
As Dana Milbank wrote, Mitch McConnell, the man who broke America:
By rights, McConnell’s tombstone should say that he presided over the end of the Senate. And I’d add a second line: “He broke America.” No man has done more in recent years to undermine the functioning of U.S. government. His has been the epitome of unprincipled leadership, the triumph of tactics in service of short-term power.
