No apologies: McConnell says Barrett a ‘huge success for the country’

Mitch McConnell isn’t sorry about anything. In fact, he’s happy how it all turned out.

McConnell has dismissed Democratic complaints that the vacancy left by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg should’ve been left open until next year, or threats of retaliation through “court-packing” if Democrats win the White House and Senate on Nov. 3. He said on Monday night that “every high school student in America learns about Franklin Roosevelt’s unprincipled assault on judicial independence,” and warned Democrats not to repeat it.

“I’m not going to evaluate that sort of thing. You know I haven’t done that in four years and I’m not going to start now,” McConnell said. But as GOP celebrations over Barrett continue, McConnell is looking toward his next challenge. He plans to run for Republican leader again in a few weeks — either in the majority or minority — provided he wins reelection to a sixth term next week.

Democrats know how they feel about McConnell, and it isn’t good. The party is furious that McConnell blocked Merrick Garland’s nomination for the high court in 2016 while fast tracking Barrett through now, even as tens of millions of Americans have already voted. Some Senate Democrats and party activists are openly calling for expanding the Supreme Court if they control Washington in order to dilute the 6-3 conservative majority that McConnell has now helped enshrine. Liberals fear the coming Supreme Court will strike down an ambitious Biden agenda, just as the high court targeted major pieces of Roosevelt’s New Deal.

If poo-poo ass-kissing enabler McConnell said a 'huge success' trust him at your expense.

Thank God.

I’m tired of not being considered in this new-fangled, old-fashioned America. You can’t go back without leaving huge portions of America in the wake. I miss a president who speaks to and for all of America and pray we elect a new one on Nov 3. BidenHarris2020

51% of Americans supported Amy Coney Barrett so I would say it is a win for the country.

Welcome to the GOP

He deprive the country of its right and silenced our voice, typical republican ..

Mitch is delusional. MitchMustGo MitchNeedsToGo MitchIsNotWell CorruptAndComplicitGOP VoteThemAllOut VoteBlueDownTheBallot VoteBidenHarrisToSaveAmerica

I wonder if the Republicans will even allow senatemajldr to remain as Senate Minority Leader after JoeBiden wins, and the Republicans fail to maintain their majority after attaching themselves to realDonaldTrump? Hopefully KY sends him home for good!

what country would that be, Russia ?

Karma

Maybe a success for senatemajldr and the GOP, however the country and the American People have lost. No second stimulus package and check. Congress has abandoned us. Time for change.

I hope in his afterlife any and all delicious looking food to him actually tastes like shit when he eats it.

Asshole!

I worry that it’s a huge backtrack for women.

😡😡😡

to senatemajldr LindseyGrahamSC & SenateGOP on ACBconfirmation, worth repeating Leviticus 19:11 “You shall not steal; you shall not deal falsely; you shall not lie to one another. Yet you did so to 'We the PPL' maddow TheLastWord thereidout VOTE

Success lol..he a joke

So realDonaldTrump, where’s Your Health Plan❓Where’s Your Covid Response Plan❓Where’s Your plan to fight racial inequality, white supremacy, wildfire/forest 🔥management, and job creation plans❓🤔POTUS is a sham, never completing anything; only deflecting😡 Vote JoeBiden

Ditch Mitch? Why would you support any GOP person after so much failure and corruption? Vote for new leadership in DC. Mask up, vote and care for all. =

LOL, the only ones bitter are Senate Democrats. Everyone else is celebrating how a mom could get on the Supreme Court.

More like a free out of jail card for Pres and Republicans

Sure bucko. Now ride off into the sunset. We will take care of this travesty.

Politico notes that Dems are bitter, as is the dem-supporting media. Based on the Dems' and demmedia performance for the last 4 years, this is not undeserved.

When POTUS concluded he could kill someone on Fifth Avenue and get away with it, he decided to take it to another order of magnitude by killing hundreds of thousands on streets all over the United States of America!

Kentuckians, is there any doubt? This guy is the swamp creature personified. He has to go...

It is what it is.

It is what it is.

He’s delusional!

And did nothing to address the economic crisis

MoscowMitch will have his comeuppance

Dumb Mitch thinks he can stop progressiveness and demand for economic change! He will NOT Americans will valued and progressiveness will prevail!!

I really, really hope the people of Kentucky have realized MoscowMitch has done nothing for the country. He is all about keep him and his swamp cronies in power. UnpatrioticMitch

TheFLResistance MoscowMitchMcTraitor Kentucky Vote him out!

Continuing to do things that a minority of Americans support is not success.

McConnell always says grandiose things like this. He means himself. He thinks of himself as the litmus test of the rest of the country. If he wants it, then of course 'America' wants it. True narcissism in action.

The huge success for the country will be a massive blue tsunami, sweeping away McConnell and his fellow traitors.

senatemajldr is Deplorable GOPComplicitTraitors
