'So deeply cynical': Why Republicans insulted by Trump still support him
#Trump #Politics #Republicans
Mitch is a morally empty vessel. He's profoundly unimpressive.
You gotta give credit to Trump.
He is transforming the GOP single-handedly. It is America First now: secure border, drill baby drill, low gas prices, choice between EV and gasoline cars, no CBDC, no foreign wars.
Only president who donated his salary to Veterans.
Only president in the last 40 years who didn't start a war.
Only president in the past 40 years who signed criminal justice reform bill with First Step Act freeing non-violent prisonners that Clinton, Biden, Obama incarcerated.
Only president who increased the funding of HBCUs and made the funding permanent.
Only president under whom we were Energy Independent.
But he said some right things after J6. And then obviously his mental state deteriorated ... I feel somewhat sorry for him.
These gop politicians have no moral , no values .
@@martinleuchs5403 Voting to acquit after those J6 words reveals his moral bankruptcy and increases the scorn I have for him.
@@michaelhapgood782 Some do but most don't care - because they inhabit the same moral desert as Mitch.
Mitch will sell his family..
I’m sure he already has.
Or at least rented them.
who murdered McConnell's sister-in-law? In a tesla btw!
He sold his wife honor while trump was dogging her on national tv just like Ted cruzy
No, his soul..that guy makes me want to puke 🤮🤮🤮🤢🤢🤢
He would sell anything for the power.
All that talk from McConnell, and YET, he let him sneak out the back door!!!
McConnell, in my opinion, is just as guilty of what happened that day.
Like Cruz he's gutless & afraid of a coward & bully
I absolutely agree with you.
Yep guilty
He sure is
Also, it should not be lost on anyone how Ted Cruz caught such a stray from Scarborough when they mentioned the things that Trump said about McConnell's wife, Elaine Chao, who was also Trump's Transportation secretary.
Mitch McConnell and Newt Gingrich share the lion's share of the blame for the sorry state of our politics.
That's McCoverup, you spelled it wrong!
The greater tragedy is that a branch of government is dominated by men of little pride.
Trumpkins are the basement babies of the tea baggers - Newt's Tea Party.
@@carrollsanders9376 Good one 👍👍👍 I like it
Yes I hate both
Mitch is to blame for a lot of it ......Biden 24
99% is McConnells fault. It all goes back to Mitch.
💯
If it weren't for him the reelected Trump would be in WH and country wouldn't be in this mess
@@glennmandigo6069 🤣🤣🤣🤣CRIMINAL TRUMP is the reason we are in this mess 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

Mitch is a disgrace, he should be ashamed.
And he does not love his family
Joe Biden wears a diaper 😂
He has no pride!

@@user-ed1fr1fu9r No, that's 'DIAPER DONNIE' and a toupee and a very bad one at that and makup ORANGE MAKEUP 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Unbelievable! I just emailed McConnell regarding this being a new low for him. Trump must have some serious dirt on Mitch.
WE THE PEOPLE
Have dirt on him...
He's a TRAITOR!!!
Do you really think he reads his constituent email? If it’s donation mail maybe.
Bingo!
Mitch is a longtime Russian taupe who pretends to be ethical in self defence mode, when the going gets rough and sticky . Of course when the coast seems clear, Mitch is back on the (ob) scene.. He's a disgusting turtle. He just doesn't want to be exposed.
I believe he doe’s
this is how cults behave. Giving eternal loyalty to someone who despises you.
This is how you gaslight someone. Implant ideas in their mind to make them question their position.

Did your Mom get paroled yet?
@@paleocon777Good question. We in Europe (only the wise Europeans) will be glad with Trump. The war is over at that time. Europe has had enough of the left-wing Neocons with their extremely bellicose tones. Fortunately, the biggest American b*tch Nuland has been "promoted away". 1 less..
I am not sure he is in prison or not ! But I know he is a MAFIA GANG = Make America Falling Instantly Apart !
I will vote for that
SINILE McCONNEL made his biggest blunder for our beloved UNITED
STATES of AMERICA-SHAME ON YOU, MITCH McCONNEL😡
My entire family of life long Republican all have agreed. We will all be voting for president Joe Biden this year.
So you are voting against America?
@@glennmandigo6069No-voting against idiots in America. Not the same thing, if you think about it.
I mean, you know, if you CAN think about it.
Were you paid directly by Xi Jinping to be his personal bot?
Thank you for giving hope!
BOT
The three supreme court pick by Donald Trump was mitch McConnell choices
Exactly Mitch used Trump and Donald does not even realize it
How on earth can Mitch McConnell continue to support Trump! What a farce!
The 3:00 am phone 📞 call 🤬 about being compromised, had consequences.
Kompromat.
Because Joe Biden is compromised 😂
Because Joe Biden is compromised 😂
The Kentucky slow poke turtle 🐢 don't got a spine.
McConnell's place in history alongside Trump and Benedict Arnold is assured.
You spelled McCoverup wrong!
How true. Arnold fled to England. McConnell will flee to the Galapagos Islands.
And Clarence Thomas can be found in his RV in a Walmart parking lot outside Waco Tx.
@@user-ls3xf9tg8l NO, he'll flee to Russia...or China with his wife
Who is Benedict Arnold?😂
How can anybody have respect for the likes of mitch,cruz etc,trump removed their balls snd they still support him,i do not understand people like that who have no self respect, so much for that lot swearing alligence to the flag and constitution , it's all meaningless words that mean nothing to them.
Yep same goes most military personnel who still supports them after Trump calling them a bunch of losers and suckers. Plus it’s the GOP senator
tubberville that stopped them from getting raises and promotions. Anyone stopping me from getting a raise and promotion would be voted out by me.
They only understand the
Almighty
Dollar/Rubles
Trump represents everything Republicans have claimed to stand against for decades. Yet now they've abandoned their values and embraced the corruption.
Exactly
Its not about looks in the mirror for these people. Its the power and influence they think they will lose if they defend their family against trump.
Its not just about putting party over country like george said at the end.
"Russia....If you're listening". "All Donnie needs, is for you to find him $464 Million"....
the Man has heard the call.... the uncompromised loan is to be available
WHY do you hate the USA but love Xi and China so much?
Your accusations about Russia is just your guilty conscience speaking out loud.
He needs more than that!
There are enough braindead Republicans to bail him out, there's one above me in the comments.
Because Joe Biden is compromised 😂
Moscow mitch's collection of children's shoes in his attic is a problem.
A geat Bill Hicks reference.
Nice!
😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They just want their party to win, even when their preferred candidate is revealed to be of unsavory character. 🙄
Politicians have always been known as being hypocritical. Never before have they been seen as being so openly hypocritical though.
Its all on video and available with one little search.
You don't have to dig into vast archives and put them together.
How can McConnell endorse Trump? He's leaving the Senate in 2026 so he has nothing to lose by not endorsing Trump.
Only the country
He wants the last few years of his life to be quiet and comfortable. He’s got bags of money and no shame, so the last thing he’s going to do is stir up the MAGA idiots so they come after him.
Gangsters such as Trump usually have a hit on the family. Only explanation.
"nothing to lose..."
McConnell probably fears repercussions in the future DECADES of his life🙂.
He's Senile
If mitch didn't endorse, we'd be reading about him drowning in his bath tub a few months from now.
That's Obamas tactic
In few months from now he'll be dead anyway.
👆Oh come now, you silly goose. Obama doesn’t order mob hits.
@@threesisterstrucking8044 The forbidden word with I in the beginning and diotic at the end immediately popped up, reading your profund comment.
Fell out a window.
Anyone who would use the presidency to sell gold sneakers would gladly sell America's secrets to the highest bidder.
red hat + gold shoes = broke loser
You’ve been living in Hawaii too long. Besides, Trump isn’t the President now anyway. Maybe you don’t like Trump because he’s 6’3”?
"Ashley, I dropped the soap again... Can I get a little help here?"
Guess you havent noticed all the Biden youtube ads "I need your money to win".... lol they're all just useless grifters living off our stupidity. and tax dollars....
Sold, not Sell.
This is nothing to laugh at. We've just given every delinquent a playbook for getting away with anything they want. To misquote a film, "With great power comes no accountability"
With soo much evidence why assume anything but total agreement WITH Trump? The Maddow said “don’t watch what they say, watch what they do”.
You gotta give credit to Trump.

They’re all spineless
The problem I have as a veteran, when I took my oath, there WERE PEOPLE WHO ENFORCED OUR LAWS AND kept the checks and balances of our Constitution... We still have the same election denier, insurrection leader and creator, as well as election mettler AND person who publicly compromised classified documents being allowed to ignore his offenses running as a LEGITAMENT candidate! THAT ISN'T RIGHT AND WE ALL KNOW IT!!
I'm with you BROTHER!!
Supporting the Republic nominee is also a disgrace, Mitch Trump.
You do not endorse the embodiment of disgrace, that is disgraceful!
History will judge you.
They don't call him Moscow Mitch for nothing.
indeed they don't. He has been documented as taking Russian oligarch money since the mid 90s... along with Lindsey Graham and McCain.... the Dallas morning news has an article and it has only gotten worse since then...
Mitch is shameless!
Imagine there are two sets of dice where one set has a better-than-even chance of winning over the other set most of the time but the other set if it wins will always win every time after that no matter how many times the dice is thrown.
So, if you were a gambler which set of dice would you choose to throw for this one time?
This is the Republican politician's dilemma in that they will most likely lose this time with Trump as their leader but if Trump wins there is the chance that there will be no more presidential elections in the USA and Republican politicians like the second set of dice will win every year no matter what, just like every other country ruled by a dictator.
"Trump ranks as worst president in US history in new academics poll
The results are in from the US academics, and it does not bode well for the GOP nominee"
We prefer President's that don't possess top secret documents (but isn't "fit" for trial); that don't talk to the deceased, don't walk into walls and fall all the time, that don't make ka-ka in their drawers while attempting to deliver sentence fragmented "speeches"; that don't buy their daughter a bath robe for Christmas, etc...
But here we are, 3 years into it....
@@sayhisnamelibsDJT24 k....does your court appointed therapist know you're here?
The people all say everything was better under Trump. The same historians will tell you George Wallace was republican and Abe Lincoln was a Democrat!😂😂

Verbal abuse

I’m not Republican I’m American
So let me get this straight... You're saying you want a single party government, right? Totally do away with Republicans? So where does that leave the Democrats? Ohhhh ya that's right, it's called a DICTATORSHIP when a single party rules! And you babies scream at the sky because Trump cracked a joke about being a dictator for one day...
What a joke. You can't even make this stuff up anymore.
DERP
The American Democracy matters, Not The MAGA Government Of Putin Association.
So? Are you a Democrat?
guessing you want to keep it that way? No Fourth ChristoFascist Reich for you?
At a critical moment in their personal history they failed. But they refuse to admit their mistake to themselves. So they continue to drag themselves downhill with whatever vestiges of dignity they have left.
These monsters have no honor.
Easy for them to look in the mirror. they have no soul, no reflection. so it's of no matter what they see, because that reflection has no soul.
They must follow their Leader,,,or else 😧
The 3 hours of silence from Trump was appalling!!
It's the only time in his life he's been silent for 3 hours.
He made a statement and was even in the middle of a rally when it started and told them to be peaceful, but nice try though

Mitch McConnell is the epitome of evil walking in human form.
No Trump is.
Mitch vomits then laps it up😰
How many think that Mitch is just insuring he won't be sent to the gulag in the event of another Trump regime?

@@brentduanefosterYep.
Something about that race of people...
During the 2016 election, my mother said DJT would win because he was giving license for a group in America that believes the country is theirs alone and they should set the tone for everything. DJT won. Mama died in 2018. I see now that she was right.
If your momma was at least my age she lived with tRump most of her life...there's no misery...and there's nothing good about a liar and crook like tRump.
With the Republican politicians, it all about who is paying them.
Corporations, Billionaires and Christian institutions.
That is as plain as day.
He revealed what kind of man he is today, now! and sadly the man he is now is same man he has always been... that being " a self serving hypocrite " He just had us all fooled! 😮
Where's ALL the videos of DUMP watching TV whilst rioting & vandalism ensued??? as USELESS as screen doors on submarines!!!!
People should stop talking about Trump SECOND TERM. If he succeed in his campaign it will be ELECTION FOR LIFE. Period!!!
😂😂 Take your meds!
That's if Biden wins
I hope so 😂
No, Honey. That's not how it works.
I know it’s not his own fault that he looks and sounds like a muppet, but his arsehorely is entirely on Mitch.
Mitch McConell what a coward. What a pathetic dude!
Obviously does not respect his country OR his wife!
Faux Turtle.
Spineless
Reported… this is clearly an insult to any jellyfish.😢
Republicans stand for their own power, not fixing the border, not backing Nato, not tackling climate change, not protecting voting rights, not protecting women's rights, not lowering drug costs, not protecting Social Security, not opposing authoritarianism, not supporting unions, not addressing student debt. That's all.
“When stupidity is considered patriotism, it is unsafe to be intelligent.”

Its cost tax payers millions for security for judges, juries, DA's, and other officers of the courts because of all Trumps criminal acts ! Thanks Maga

all cowards and hypocrites
Mitch is doing this out of fear
Yes, due to information trump has on him
I think the Republican party is acting like the old crocodile during a draught. Holding on to the usual ways is easier than adapting but in the end that leads to extinction. Unfortunately, all around experience some of the suffering they cause. We must stay focused and resilient.
Never seen a dinosaur lie so much
The question you have to ask is what does Trump (or Putin) have on McConnell?
A lot,along with half of the republican party, their not frightened of losing their jobs, their frightened of what may come out about them, I should say about what will come out about them eventually
@@Linda-io2ns Do you think their behavior is squirrelly enough to warrant a full investigation into whether they’re compromised?
The Biden administration should be used as an ad everywhere..
McConnell has no soul, correction he never had one to begin with.
Mitch sees the writing on the wall. If Trump wins and that is looking increasingly likely, Trump is going full medieval on his adversaries. America is facing a Putin like authoritarian government. And Mitch doesn’t want to have his family persecuted
Poor Joe does not realize that keeping power matters more to both Mcconells than insults or defending democracy.
This is good commentary and unlike the way you played the clips. Outstanding. Leaves most people shaking our heads!!
I thouggt lying was a crime
Trump called his wife for everything nasty in the dictionary and still endorsed him😂😂😂😂
It's called having no respect for yourself
And the highest court in the let this man run again
So politicians had said the tribunal should punish Trump. The court said it is Congress....
Imagine Al Capone had run for President...
Gutless Moscow Mitch.
Unfortunately, "tricky Mitch" has more time to cause harm.

DISGRACEFUL!!!
I’m sure Mitch McConnell will not take a casserole to Donald Trump every Saturday at Leavenworth. What a preposterous hypocrite.
Poor Mitch. What a loser.
Seriously. This was Mitch’s first introduction to DT. Mitch can’t remember 2 minutes ago.
That's all you need to do is look at America and the world 4 years ago, verses today. It doesn't matter what these people say anymore.
some people draw parallels between politics and prostitution due to certain perceived similarities. These comparisons often revolve around the notion of exchanging favors or services for personal gain, as well as the idea of compromising principles or values for the sake of advancement or survival in the respective fields......
No problem. Don't they understand it is party policies and money before country?
Again. It’s not about the American people. It’s about the party. Sad.
I fully agree with all your points! I’m not an American, so don’t have to worry, but to me, what’s happening in the greatest country on earth is beyond comprehension!!!😢😢
Mitch, Lady Graham and Cruz
..all ball-less simps.
Condemnation without action is merely posturing. Pretending you care about the constitution but behind the scene enabling those who want to break the foundation of our Republic is pure hypocrisy. Go away Mitch, you have done enough damage!
