1. I guess Kentuckians have everything they need and are doing fine.

2. His supporters in Kentucky don't care.

McConnell will win in Kentucky, and Trump will win that state too.

13. McConnell could lose

if turnout is excellent. His approval rating is under water.

14. In the end, those fine Evangelical Christian voters will go for McConnell and Trump.

Their preachers will tell them their salvation depends upon it.

3. Even if they passed it today, the money wouldn't go out for over a month...nt

6. better than waiting till a new congress.

4. I've already heard on MSNBC this morning the spinning.

Some male guest said democrats are likely to be blamed for the lack of stimulus. I wanted to shout loudly that we passed a bill back in May. Republicans have the senate. If they are so great, pass the bill/bills in senate and send to the house. McConnell and Trump can't even hold their own, it's all on them.

5. He's in a tough spot.

Cruz and Paul are publicly opposed to any new Federal spending. No doubt, many other Republican Senators agree with them. McConnell has lost control of his caucus. He can’t pass anything without Democratic support, and that would mean conceding to Democratic demands (Heaven forbid!).

He’s stuck. All he has is ... MORE JUDGES!

7. It's tricky to hammer the last nail in your own coffin.

8. Can't wait till Joe is 46 and this nightmare is over n/t

9. Kentucky is a joke.

Kentucky is the second most dependent state on federal money. Kentucky gets more money back from the Federal Government than what they put in. It is the blue states that support Kentucky. They are feeling this crisis and McConnell does not care. They always vote against their own best interest and keep McConnell in office. It is beyond me.

10. Moscow Mitch knows the Supreme Court appointment is the only thing that matters

If he gives the court to the looney Right, he will receive money beyond the dreams of avarice. Nothing but that matters.

11. Bye Mitch, it's been nice knowin' ya

Now go burn in hell for eternity you miserable fuck, and take the rest of the GOP with you
