Mitch McConnell's GOP has little to show voters after a decade in power: Columnist

Published 1 min ago on October 21, 2020
By Travis Gettys



Republican senators up for re-election are pretending there’s a different president in office.

The New Yorker‘s Benjamin Wallace-Wells watched eight senatorial debates in the past week and came away with a sense of nostalgic anachronism.

“The television graphics were boxy and dated, the questions excellent, and the candidates nimbler than you might expect,” Wallace-Wells wrote. “Politicians are charming people who have been operating under a spell of charmlessness for a decade, roughly since Mitch McConnell made it obvious that he was on a mission to thwart the Obama Administration and a mood of wartime enmity suffused the capital.”

“But the more consequential anachronism of those Senate debates came from the Republican senators themselves, who generally acted as if Donald Trump were not the President and his policies were not the bedrocks of their party — as if, once he leaves office, the dials could be turned back to their 2011 settings and the decade could begin again,” he added.

the handlers who got and kept him in power. Look at what legislation he pushed and who benefited. Those are the people that got him into power and the people he serves...
