Ever the asshole

Jim Morhard Nomination Hearing (NHQ201808230102)

Mitch McConnell:

He’ll try anything to hold off the blue wave. 

Republican leaders are scrambling for ways to stave off the likely blue wave of midterm election victories for Democrats in November. 

The latest desperate maneuver from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is to try to keep Democratic senators off the campaign trail this fall. 

McConnell “is planning to keep the chamber in session for a significant portion of October if not four entire weeks, costing Democrats key campaign trail days and allowing the Senate to continue its work into the fall,” Politico reports. 

By contrast, the House is expected to go on recess during the second half of September and all of October because of the campaign season.

  1. I try not to be too vindictive, but I’m not gonna lie about how much I’m looking forward to seeing the look on that prick’s face when he gets bumped back down to minority leader.
