Mitch McConnell Becomes Longest Serving Party Leader in Senate History
Breitbart ^ | 01/03/2023 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will become the longest serving party leader in Senate history on Tuesday.

McConnell, 80, will remain the Republican minority leader in the 118th Congress and thus eclipse the late Sen. Mike Mansfield’s time as Democrat leader from 1961 to 1977.

McConnell overcame ten Republican “no” votes in November to remain minority leader. The votes against McConnell marked the first time McConnell had received a “no” vote as leader, a sign the GOP has begun to turn against his establishment agenda.

Too little too late. Too many Rino establishment GOPers in the Senate. We need to elect 20+ Republicans to get a majority with these 18 losers.

Why Republicans are in serious trouble. Mitch is a de-facto Democrat.

On a linear graph, his line would parallel the line representing the decline of the United States.

McConnell is the poster child for all that is wrong with the Republic. The Senate must be reformed. The House must investigate our elections, including those of U.S. Senators. Many have been selected by fraud, not elected by the people. They must be removed.

The only way that POS is going to be removed from office is when he drops and is taken out of office feet first. But for now he ain’t going nowhere …he’s got a long term to do more harm to the American families before he is booted out. The most hated man in both parties. He tops the liar in chief and even botox evil Pelosi. Heck, he’s probably even more hated than Satan himself. He’s up there with backstabbing Cheney and shifty schiff but overall he tops them too. POS!

He is the ‘party leader’ only in the eyes of a few RINOs in the senate not amongst all members of the party. Have a general election for party leader and he would lose miserably......
