Mitch McConnell tells German audience that Republican leaders support aid to Ukraine: ‘Don’t look at Twitter’

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell on Friday told attendees at the Munich Security Conference that Republican leadership backs continued aid to Ukraine as it fights off a Russian invasion, despite voices within his party opposing continued assistance.

"Reports about the death of Republican support for strong American leadership in the world have been greatly exaggerated," he said. "My party’s leaders overwhelmingly support a strong, involved America and a robust trans-Atlantic alliance. Don’t look at Twitter, look at people in power."

The Kentucky senator pointed to himself, as well as Speaker or the House Kevin McCarthy and top Republicans on the Senate and House committees.

Don’t look at Twitter, look at people in power."

... The peons have nothing to do with how our people's democratic republic works. Only pay attention to the oligarchs in charge. If there is any popular uprising against our proxy war against a nuclear power the FBI will infiltrate it and use agent provocateurs or planted evidence to destroy it and save democracy from the people.

Don’t look at our constituents because we don’t give a rat’s behind what they think except at election time. We do what I tell them.

What this tells us is that the people want our involvement over and this old corrupt fart knows it.

Despicable POS. Why do people even bother voting?

A long time ago during my misspent youth, it was not unknown for me to seek refreshment in establishments where arguments might become physical.

As a man far too prudent to do more than watch a bar fight it never occurred to me to toss a knife or pistol to one of the fighters.

That’s what we’re doing in Ukraine.

IOW, only get the official government propaganda narrative and don’t worry about what the average American really thinks.

Attention Liberaltarians:
...and Screw You Pro Russian scum.

We are America and we are conservatives. We support and send arms to sovereign nations under attack from rogue nations like Russia and China.

A reminder that you azzholes now take the part of the Liberal socialist scum from the cold war days. You are not conservatives, you are weak RonPaulist appeasers. No better than Ted Kennedy.

I really wish Mitch and his corrupt wife would have taken a bunch of vaccines and boosters instead of the standard pol saline shot.
