In Your Face: McConnell to Host Biden at Infrastructure Bill Celebration in Kentucky the Day After GOP Takes House Majority
Gateway Pundit ^ | January 1, 2023 | Kristinn Taylor

Posted on 01/01/2023 4:30:56 PM PST by Macho MAGA Man

Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky is starting the new year making very clear whose side he is on–and it is not Republican voters. After betraying the incoming GOP House majority by negotiating a $1.7 trillion omnibus funding bill in the lame duck Congress last month to deny House Republicans the chance to control federal spending this year, McConnell is set to host Joe Biden in Kentucky on Wednesday at a “bipartisan” celebration of Biden’s $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill passed in 2021 with help from McConnell.

NBC News was first to report on the McConnell-Biden event which will highlight a $1.6 billion bridge replacement project, funded by the infrastructure bill, to replace the Brent Spence Bridge connecting Ohio and Kentucky. Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) and Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) are also expected to attend the event.

....snip.....

November 2021, McConnell defended his support of Biden’s infrastructure bill in response to criticism by President Trump (excerpt via Business Insider):

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is doubling down on his support for the infrastructure bill despite criticism from former President Donald Trump.

Speaking to The Washington Post on November 16, McConnell reiterated his support for the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill, saying he was “proud” of his vote.

“I watched each of the two previous administrations struggle with the issue of how to meet the infrastructure needs of the country,” McConnell said. “I joined 18 other Senate Republicans feeling like now is the time to address it.”

McConnell isn’t even honest enough to change parties. He’s an absolute POS, emphasis on the ‘s’ word.

Trump should do a rally the same day. Run against Mitch. Don’t even talk about the othe other candidates. 2024 primary should be a referendum on Mitch

Yes Mitch won Senate majority easily. The they turned around and cut the House off at the knees. We really do have a uniparty now.

“..He has been figuratively waving two middle fingers at the conservative base of the party for a month or more. ...”

This POS and his other DS UniParty hacks, destroyed the GOP from within last week. The GOP is now facing a domesday situtation. IF we wanted RAT and RAT policies, we’d have voted for a true, tested, sure enough, certified RAT, and we’d know exactly what we were getting; Instead, we got some lying, thieving traitorous DS jackasses dressed up in GOP clown suits.
Huge swaths of the base are pissed off to no end....and giving them the middle finger right back. I, for one, dropped any and all GOP affiliation and changed to independent. several other couples we know are doing the same....we’ve had enough Screw the primaries....no longer voting for the lesser of two evils anymore...ain’t voting for evil at all. It’s waaaaayyyyyy past time for a new party.
IMHO, the only option the GOP has left to redeem itself is to completely expel the 18 senate DS UniParty hack/traitors from the party, including Mitch the Beotch, but that will never happen as they’re totally gutless and have no spine... My rant is over....and so are they.

“This hurts less for us independents.”

It shouldn’t hurt less. Those two consorting with each other has drastic outcomes for every American.

“a month or more”. I’m going with “or more”. Try five years.

“Play date with CCP playmates?”

Good way to put it. The event is for Biden, but maybe Xi will be guest of honor.

“Closet homo,”

I don’t even think it’s “closet”. Seems that it’s common knowledge that’s the reason he spent only 60 days in the military. His unholy alliance with Chao probably has two reasons: (1) She’s his beard, and (2) the business / monetary benefit with China.

His first wife is a lulu, too. Making good choices isn’t his strong suit.

I’m not a part of the Republican team, and I never again will be. That’s the right thing for me to do.

“I’m not a part of the Republican team, and I never again will be.”

I didn’t say you are, or should be. I just said that the unholy alliance hurts everybody — GOPs, RATs, Americans, unicorns. (I also am not Republican.)

Those who identify with another.. Is because they both have the same ideas, thinking, lie, and Biden lies, hits leaders in other countries for cash, will do anything for profit or power.. And is lecherous!

Excellent points - one we don’t see because the “trees are in the way”.....

Another classic type-with-yer-elbows thread, which completely fails to take responsibility for throwing nothing but tomato cans at Miotch since the very beginning.

In Miotch's first primary in '84, they ran 3 tomato cans at him, who split 21% among themselves evenly, like 3 Scotsmen and one wet match LOFL.

Here was the tomato juice spilled in 2020:

Here's a view on the tomato-canned runner-up:

"Golden referenced news coverage of Morgan’s loss in the 2018 Republican state House primary to Deanna Frazier. In a Facebook post on election night, Morgan announced that he was leaving the Republican Party and supporting the Democratic nominee, Morgan Eaves.

“Tonight the GOP lost a true conservative and patriot. I will no longer be associated with the Republican Party,” Morgan wrote.

The next day, Morgan said he had changed his mind."

Owns a liquor package store. LOFL.

Meanwhile, the Democrats use lost-cause opponents like Amy McGrath, and Charles Booker -- who lost to McGrath but stepped on a rake in 2022 versus Rand Paul -- to funnel nearly a hundred million dollars of dark money through the loser (see , ibid).

Booker might be able to run an open-air BBQ stand -- with goobermint help -- but that's about the limit on his skill set.

So if Freepers don't run, don't biotch about Miotch. The only Freeper who had the balls to run for Congress was Congressman Billybob RIP!

The UN has said nuclear war is ‘back within the realm of possibility.’ Here are the places in the US most likely to be hit in a nuclear attack.
