Amazing. They’re not even telling him he’s on his own. They’re actively advocating the seat go to the rats.
Disgusting pigs, RNC.
Of course they are, they also wanted Hillary!
...because McTurtle has a better chance of keeping his majority leadership position with one fewer vote against him.

Exactly. It is about the insiders trying to keep and outsider out of Washington.

This is McConnell and Ryan setting the table for 2018 primaries. McConnell can’t get anything done with 52 Senate votes, so what does it bother him if that drops to 51 instead?
What does concern the GOP establishment is that Moore won ahead of Strange, in spite of Strange having the money and a series of endorsements from President Trump on down. That terrifies them. McConnell and Ryan are now desperately trying to build this narrative that if we vote for who they like in the primary, there’ll be plenty of money and support for that candidate. But vote for someone else in the primary and that guy could turn out so “toxic” the Dem wins.
At this point, McConnell needs Moore to lose in order to back up the propaganda he’ll be pushing in 2018 primary season.
