He blames Tucker Carlson at @9:35. Beginning of the end for McConnell. That's a weak stance for him. His party is the authoritarian party. He's through.
Correct. Accordingly, I have no interest in anything he has to say at this point. I cannot wait for him to leave Washington. He can't leave soon enough.
The sad thing is people were talked out of convicting him on impeachment BECAUSE the Lawyer and McConnell had said he could be criminal charged after leaving office. They SHOULD have convicted on impeachment as well because he wouldn't have been eligible to run for any government office again.
Not necessarily. A Senate conviction doesn't automatically make the impeached official ineligible to run for office in the future. The Senate has the discretion to hold a separate (post-conviction) vote on future ineligibility, but is not required to.
If he were convicted of insightment of insurrection as charged he would have been banned constitutionally. Since he was never convicted by anyone the courts decided the insurrectionist clause of the constitution didn’t apply and couldn’t be used to bar Inmate No. P01135809 from the ballot. This is all Mitch’s fault. The way he spinelessly abdicates his influence in this interview as if he has no power in republican politics is absurd and disgusting.
Blaming Tucker Carlson for giving the Maga Culture a microphone its very obvious he has no criticism against Sean Hannity and Jessie Watterman who is still engaged in the same behavior. 😮
Sole responsibility for the current SCOTUS. Guy is such a Machiavellian politician he knows what he’s doing. Of course, he’s had 200 years of life experience
Mitch & his shenanigans are the sole reason for the discord in the capitol. Mitch took pride everytime he was able to cause chaos. I will be glad when I no longe have to see Moscow mitch.
Biden has the chance to do the funniest thing in US history if he takes Trump's lawyer's suggestion literally.. LMAO. It would literally be the funniest thing ever.
McConnell is (barely) living proof that we need term limits for Congress like we have for the Presidency. I think we should have a 10 term limit for The House & a 3 term limit for The Senate.
And, of course, McConnell will flip- flop, and say that Trump should get immunity! Just a he said, he "would not" endorse Trump! He IS endorsing Trump! GO HOME, McConnell! You've done enough damage!
Half the people in West Virginia live in squalor and Mitch believes that’s how it’s supposed to be and he never lifted a finger to ameliorate their condition. Mitch believes the proper role of government is to enhance the wealth,privileges and political power of the billionaire ruling class. He believes educating W. Va. kids should be to teach them about Jesus and nothing else that would them blame him for their poverty.
Mitch might have cause to worry-the three he put on the court look like they're going to give trump what he wants. and then trump, if he wins in November, can declare mitch's seat vacane, even disband the court and the congress.
This is a fairly counter-productive interview. When you're a force in the legislative branch of government, the last thing you're going to do is opine on the executive branch. They should discuss more the role of popular myths (informed by media personalities) in motivating legislators to non-compliance with party platforms. That would be interesting.
Critically ask this question. Does more weapons lead to more death and destruction? US govt. should try to bring more peace and not more wars around the world. That is true for the Israel-Hamas war, too.
GOP and Speaker Johnson need to stop listening to private citizen Trumps ridiculous demands and take the bipartisan border deal to House vote. Enough with the Trump BS interference.
Margaret, you really need to back off instead of hammering on them, talking over them, not letting them speak. Even Dana Bash listens & allows them to finish before replying, and does not harass them. You are so argumentative, like George Stephanopolis...not journalism. A big turnoff.
Well the center, center-left won’t miss him for the double standards he pulls. And the right won’t miss him because he is not a Trump boot-licker (at least in the public’s view).

Mitch is the reason we’re in this mess.
The problem is anyone else in his shoes would be worse.
He blames Tucker Carlson at @9:35.

Sen. Mitch McConnell: "Compromise is a dirty word."
Correct. Accordingly, I have no interest in anything he has to say at this point. I cannot wait for him to leave Washington. He can't leave soon enough.
You misspelled dimocrat party.
The sad thing is people were talked out of convicting him on impeachment BECAUSE the Lawyer and McConnell had said he could be criminal charged after leaving office.
They SHOULD have convicted on impeachment as well because he wouldn't have been eligible to run for any government office again.
They are using that as a defense now. He can’t be prosecuted because he was not impeached. WOW just wow
Not necessarily. A Senate conviction doesn't automatically make the impeached official ineligible to run for office in the future. The Senate has the discretion to hold a separate (post-conviction) vote on future ineligibility, but is not required to.

How can you not correct McConnell on the fact that the Afghanistan Withdraw was negotiated & agreed upon under Trump?
Lol
He is the definition of party over country
Sole responsibility for the current SCOTUS. Guy is such a Machiavellian politician he knows what he’s doing. Of course, he’s had 200 years of life experience
That’s why they will stall
GOP is full of it!
Just Vote.
He said I don’t know how many times your gonna keep asking me the same question 😂
Mitch & his shenanigans are the sole reason for the discord in the capitol. Mitch took pride everytime he was able to cause chaos. I will be glad when I no longe have to see Moscow mitch.
If SCOTUS approves presidential immunity, then Biden should act to take advantage of that ASAP.
I agree. But I have a sneaky suspicion, SCOTUS won't rule till after the election so that Biden can't be immune if he wins.
Yes to Put Biden in Jail, Open Border is Killing USA.
Biden has the chance to do the funniest thing in US history if he takes Trump's lawyer's suggestion literally.. LMAO. It would literally be the funniest thing ever.
All that spinning. Surprise that old man didn't didn't fall out of the chair.
😂
Moscow Mitch had his chance to hold Trump accountable and he failed. Moscow Mitch is responsible for Trump's resurgence.

If you have no regrets, you are lying.
McConnell is (barely) living proof that we need term limits for Congress like we have for the Presidency. I think we should have a 10 term limit for The House & a 3 term limit for The Senate.
He's leaving.
10 terms is to long
So 20 years in the house but only 18 in the senate?
10 and 3? That is too much. 5 and 2 is more reasonable.
McConnell needs to apologize to every US citizen, because he is the reason our country and our democracy is nearing possible demise.
None Is Above The Law
50 million illegals are above the law.
That always cracks me up when I hear a democrat say that. 😅👍
@@naturalobserver1322 Every illegal is above the law but the Democrats call that "democracy" or something.
@@naturalobserver1322 And instead of brining them to justice, you want to join in the fun ?
He is the problem not the answer.
Way to go Mitch. Support your party over the rule of law and the survival of democracy. Can always count on you, right?
Mitch Gelatinous Spine McConnell
Prime example of the need for TERM LIMITS!
Mitch dropped the ball and he knows it.
.
If they would have done the right thing and impeached don the con, the democracy’s around the world would be safe. Including ours.
"Not my fault!", said the devil, heaving his minions under the bus...
And, of course, McConnell will flip- flop, and say that Trump should get immunity! Just a he said, he "would not" endorse Trump! He IS endorsing Trump! GO HOME, McConnell! You've done enough damage!

Well said. Notice he never is engaged in doing right by his voters it’s always about power.
The turtle is from Kentucky, not WV.
Choose a ditch already Mitch!
Mitch needs to Check himself to a Retirement Home.😂
This is a horrible interview!!! I lean left. This is why mainstream media SUCKS!!!!!
Such an awful man
I had no idea Mitchy poo could tap dance!! Not even MB could nail him down.
We didn't start the fire 🔥- Billy Joel

Mitch McConnell truly looks like he is going to lose his s*** every time he has to answer a question about Donald Trump lol
McConnell is now blaming tucker carlson for problems in his party. The man is so utterly pathetic.

Trump made the deal to go out of Afghanistan! TRUMP!!!
Joe Bribe'em has blood on his hands. 13 American Patriot Lives. Shameful.
Thank you Mitch for telling the truth and supporting Ukraine!
Mitch should go to pasture with Pelosi 😊
He should retire and go home.
Mitch McConnell walks into a bar. The bar tender asks "why the long face?"
There should be a new cocktail named a "Frozen Mitch".
@@johndavidwolf4239 A "Big Mike" would be an interesting cocktail!
@@imperialmotoring3789 A "Big Johnson" might sell better.
@@johndavidwolf4239 It might. People bought the "michelle" schtick.
@@imperialmotoring3789 : Michelle who? I thought you were referring to the current speaker of the house.
What a disgrace Mitch needs to go now, very shameful sad. 😮😮
Kentucky is the most awesome Sky!!!
Mitch needs to find a rocking chair and get lost
Kentucky has a great Amish Community, and such heavenly farms. Crops.

Mitch needed to speak up Long time ago too late Mitch
Mitch is neither looking nor performing well in this segment.
His picked radical right Supreme Court picks don’t think so.
Glad to see you brought in a turtle. But where's Mitch?
Are we still have republican
Bro you cant even control your own brain.
Margaret starting to look old now😢
The interviewer is not very bright
Mitch McConnell Turtle you need too stop it
All I see is turtle Mitch McConnell 🐢🥲
Trump is a great guy!
It's obvious that Tucker Carlson is the problem here.
Margaret starting to have grey hairs. I believe is stress of kids and a hard job.

Duh . The military industrial complex wins again by never winning 🤑 Genius..
Why are you putting Cheney down? Thought democrats loved the industrial military complex.
Seems to be one of the only things republicans are concerned about keeping up with inflation. Definitely not the regular people’s wages.
Will Mitch require the DOD to PASS an audit before any increase in defense spending?
Yeah, im sure he'll say the same when biden is on trial...
Secure the border
Trump blocked the bill.
It is.
GOP and Speaker Johnson need to stop listening to private citizen Trumps ridiculous demands and take the bipartisan border deal to House vote.
Enough with the Trump BS interference.
It's secure 😃👍
Margaret, you really need to back off instead of hammering on them, talking over them,
not letting them speak. Even Dana Bash listens & allows them to finish before
replying, and does not harass them.
You are so argumentative, like George Stephanopolis...not journalism. A big turnoff.
Won’t Amerika miss old Mitch McCornhole when he’s gone?
NO
Well the center, center-left won’t miss him for the double standards he pulls. And the right won’t miss him because he is not a Trump boot-licker (at least in the public’s view).
