Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsWhen you see McTurtle on TV whining about "Moscow Mitch" on the Senate floor (!!!!)
You know two things:
1.) It has really gone viral, and fast
2.) This one penetrated his thick armor. THIS one bothers him plenty.
If he's putting his pain in the Congressional Record, which is archived permanently, then he's upset. It was more important for him to whine than to keep "Moscow Mitch" from being preserved for the history books.
I'm far from saying he is starting to crack a bit at the seams, but the term "Moscow Mitch" WAS brought to national television by a Republican, a fact he conspicuously distorted in his rant.........

We could send masses of them to Moscow Mitch, too. I don't care if he throws them away. They keep track of their mail and phone calls.

Trump would throw him under the bus too.

Now, he enshrined it for all time in the Congressional Record! Not too swift. Now he's Москва Мич worldwide.

(4,079 posts)"Cocaine Mitch" was funny enough to put on a t-shirt and fundraise off of, but "Moscow Mitch" is a slur worthy of the Congressional Record!
Whatever.

Poor baby Moscow Mitch.........oh where is my violin???
BonnieJW
(2,265 posts)Is there a Dem running? The nickname plus the fact that he ignored miners suffering from black lung disease who had come to meet with him could make anyone running against him a winner.

(63,221 posts)He always acts so smug and arrogant.
It's about time we have finally found his Achilles's heel. We just have to keep at it. Billboards, phone calls and fliers all over Kentucky. They need to know what Mitch has REALLY been up to, while they get poorer and keep losing their healthcare coverage.

(4,690 posts)doesn't realize that:
1) Whining about it draws more attention to it and spreads it further, and
2) He protests too much which gives credence to the accusation.

Take the 30 day pledge to retweet Moscow Mitch if youre on twitter to drive him nuts!
