McConnell refuses to talk about Trump

Posted by | October 11, 2016 08:40 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics


You have the Senate Majority leader refusing to talk about his party’s candidate for president.

McConnell (R-KY) on Monday told the audience at an event held by the Danville-Boyle County Chamber of Commerce in Kentucky that he would not discuss Donald Trump.

“If any of you are here are thinking I’m going to elaborate on the presidential debate, let me disabuse you of that notion,” he said, according to the Lexington Herald-Leader. “If you’re interested in anything else, please stay. If you’re interested in the presidential election, you might as well get up and leave, because I don’t have any observations to make on that.”

“In my job as majority leader of the Senate I’ve found that my observations, no matter where I make them, are immediately sort of spun around the world and I don’t have anything to add on the presidential race today,” he added, according to the Associated Press.

    Sounds like the start of the Nuremberg Defense for Turtle Boy.

    The classic GOP “na,na,na,na, I can’t hear you” tactic. Because if you pretend a problem isn’t there, it will surely solve itself. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/92ec2608e3e2edd334eb7284b8391593014e164d84ef2200d393349bf89e38a7.jpg

    Nothing to add? Mitchel McConnell has nothing to add? No microphone or camera around? I guess I don’t blame him, you actually have to know something to add something to the conversation, and poor Mitch has shown he’s the stupidest Senate leader we’ve ever had.

    The Turtle has spoken but not really. He’s just another spineless Repulsive who loves his party but not his country. Some leader he is….

    After the event, he was heard to say “Help me, Mister Wizard!”
