Get rid of mitch mcconnell
Go live in Russia with Putin, traitor.
Amen to that one
@@Davey-TheDJ yup
This guy made the world more dangerous today.
Do not forget Joe Biden.
@@Seekthetruth3000 President Joe Biden/Harris 2024..💙🌊🇺🇲
@@Seekthetruth3000 Don't forget Trump who has let Putin get away with murder.
@@Seekthetruth3000Biden/Harris 2024! 🇺🇸
Exactly ! What à misérable being !
His legacy is RUINING the Supreme Court.
And ruining the Senate. And failing to impeach the ruination of the presidency. So it's a three-fer
His party has caused huge damage to Ukraine in this war.
I would agree with you but then we'd both be wrong...
@@danieljlanoue8823 best not to dither, that’s what the GOP has done.
Or may have saved Ukraine from being hit by stronger weapons, you can not know what has not happened.
What war? You seen any footage? It's a money laundering scheme to enrich the Uniparty, of which Mitch is an important member.
His party has caused huge damage right here in this country and will continue to do so unless the democrats win and can preserve our democracy.
This man has no conscience
How about Joe Biden?
Sociopaths never do!
McConnell, you are one of the biggest contributors who make this world more dangerous place!
Um, Mitch, you own a lot of the state of things. Thanks for nothing.
Unfortunately, I wish he had simply contributed “nothing.” He has caused significant harm to my country.
@@-Gramps you're right. It was nothing. He is malicious
Hey at least NOTHING has some value.
McConnell is the very definition of the swamp.
And Trump, the very definition of a clogged cesspool, stinking up our whole country. Plus he's a traitor, and a con, and crook, and a criminal. He should rot in jail!
I thought the worst we would ever see was Orrin Hatch.
I overestimated that horrid group.
Add Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi to that mix.
@@imrael496 lndeed.
Enemy of the People
Coward to power
Enabler of tyranny
All of that barely touches Mitch’s career
Enemy of the people. 100%
"The singular objective of the GOP is nothing less than the complete destruction of organized human society." - Noam Chomsky
He's so disingenuous! He is a big reason why we are worse off! He is the reason why our Supreme Court is so conservatively stacked!
Moscow Mitch let fat donnie skate. And fat donnie hates Mitch.
somebody bought all the propaganda about Russia and Trump, I see
TDS.
@@Seekthetruth3000 RT
Skate for what?
OLD DEAD FOSSEL ...MAKES NO SENSE
Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Schumer...etc.
Trump, delusional and a traitor. His supporters, the same!
@@Seekthetruth3000🎯
Term limits in Congress please!!!!!
;;;blood is also on McConnell's hands as well as the GOP!!!!
How about Joe Biden?
@@Seekthetruth3000 Joe Biden wasn’t stalling Ukraine aid in deference of Russia.
Mitch, you stacked the supreme court in Trumps favor and the country is suffering because of it.
Free speech when you lie, is called slander.
No it isn't please learn the english language and what slander is.
That's Trump's MO
The Russia collusion hoax was slander?
@@rooster1012 oh really it's not free speech
@@rooster1012 English language here for you. "True ignorance is not the absence of knowledge, but the refusal to acquire it" Karl Popper 1902
Because of him...
If the world is more dangerous now, he played a big part of that.
So did Joe Biden.
Unbelievable! McConnel will vote for the party that supports Putin!
The Republican party doesn't support Putin. Where did you get that from?
Why not coz the Russians are showing up the Ukrainians including West.. 😁
@@elizabethstanley7137 Marge.
@@elizabethstanley7137 CNN or MSNBC
Yes, Moscow Mitch.
"There's no question, none, that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day [1/6]." -- Mitch McConnell
And yet he’ll vote for him just because he’s a repug. Immoral man.
McConnell was wrong.
Mitch would do anything - literally anything - to get Trump our of the pictures.
The republican party is crumbling
Dems and RINOs are no good.
How is the Republican party crumbling?
Democrats are more crazy
So isn't the democratic party
@@elizabethstanley7137 The country and the world are crumbling.
TERM LIMIT!! TERM LIMIT!! TERM LIMIT!!
The Republcian politicians should have enough balls to kick people like Mitch out of the party. No lawas are needed to do what is common sense.
*itch McConnell worked tirelessly to make this world a more dangerous place. Ironic that he would draw attention to his iniquities.
Avoids snswering questions. Still anti the country and the people.
History will remember Mitch McConnell doing what the country could do for him and not what good he did for the country.
He's no Reagan Republican. Reagan would have condemned Trump as a person and condemned ever letting him work in government again.
TDS.
would reagan do that before or after he sold weapons to iran?
Lets not define the disapproval with Israels behavior towards the Palestinians as antisemitism.
I think the protests already gon and done that.
Right. Just because the right claims it is doesn't make it so. To be fair, SOME people involved with the protest are antisemitic, but they are in the minority. Most of the protesters only want the mass killing to stop.
Mitt is very worried when Trump returns to the White House. This old Crow will be Trump's target, so now he has turned 180 degrees to support Trump like Bill Barr. Humiliation .Get out Senator floor now ...
Because of him, Trump and maga.
He began his career when people were much more gullible than they are now and he has not changed one iota
It's Kentucky. That's all that need be said.

Shame on Russia
Russia did not elect McConnell
@@BondJames-vz5wkHow can we be sure of this?
@@jamesreid8638 he wasn’t called Moscow Mitch for nothing.
@@jamesreid8638😂 what!?!?🤣
After what you did to President Obama and the supreme court I repeat what the lady in New York said, "I wouldn't believe anything you said even if your tongue was notorized." Trump needs immunity? Go home and let us fix all the damage you've done.
No thanks to you ...Mitch....
Down with Mitch McConnell
No Honor for THE GRIMMEST RIPPER! So glad he is retiring YIPPEE 👏🏻. MO MORE MITCH
Well, he's staying on - even _after_ he gives up his position as Minority leader eight months from now.
@@edgarcayce2.02 So true & so sad for our country…
McConnell does have it right on Ukraine
As for his his comments about antisemitism on the left, my response is that he needs to clean up his own house first
Lest he forgets what the right wing was chanting at Charlottesville and a president claiming good people on both sides
Hard to make that argument when Trump has a Jewish family
...as if he had nothing to do with that.
The military industrial complex wins again by never winning 🤑 Genius 🎭🐑..
He would know, since he caused it.
It's not antisemitism to be anti-genoside.
Mitch, one of the best money can buy.
This is the guy that didn't want to get rid of trump twice.... !!! And says he will vote for him. 😮
Of course it's dangerous and we have you to thank for being part of the danger! 😢
Why didn’t the border get resolved when trump was in office?
I was wondering the same thing
How can anyone listen to this crap 😢
I get sick everytime the sycophants are given a platform.
Why did you give that enabler Air time? He is one of the reasons the world is in the situation we are in. I just can’t stand hypocrites.
absolutely. she has done this kind of crap a number of times and i am sick of seeing it. this is something i would expect to see on cnn these days.
I like him better FROZEN
Pro Palistinian means anti semitism? Wonder which politically religiously motivated campaign contributing group gave Mitch McConnell that idea. The New Normal is Taking one Simple statement and saying it Actually means something else completely 🤩🎭🐑
And it All started with Trump and people like Steve Bannon with billionaire Peter Thile meddling in other country's like Europe and right
here in Canada it is just discasting .
Right. He is part of the reasons.
As a Democrat I tuned in, genuinely interested in what Mcconnell had to say. Realizing how precarious the world situation is and how his foreign policy goals are more in lone with Biden than Trump, I thought I’d hear him speak of common ground and the unified American spirit.
Instead, first thing out of his mouth was Biden blaming and division.
Not only is the world stage a mess, but our national politics are a mess because of partisans like Mitch.
And, Mitch, you helped make it that way!
Gloating about the economic benefits of a foreign war is depraved, Senator.
I believe that also more dangerous now than before WW2
WAR IS DUMB
More dangerous for him.
Of course it is m😅dangerous now the most powerful country in the world has a fascist candidate running for president and mitch McConnell supports him
Hats off to Kristin for keeping him on track and letting him know she hadn't got to the prediscussed college topic yet and all the other kind refocusing questions. Republicans need him to not feeeze up on film again
Unprofessional interviewer focussing on personality/persons instead of focussing on the big issues affecting America and the world.
And it's his fault.
I was worried about world war 3 but hearing him tell us we’re in danger tells us we’re gonna be just fine
That’s Because you and your constituents have made it, and that’s why….
I was very impressed by Mich McConnell, that old school looking out for the United States and alliance is very important, protecting our borders and economy +!! 🇺🇸👍.
Dictators prefer to be isolationist.
And who caused that you troll?
Because of people like Mitch Mcconell
Great interview.
Moscow Mitch obviously does not even know how to knit a tie.
I wonder why. Maybe because you chose not to impeach Trump, which is not only a danger to this country rule of law, but he is the cannery in the Cole mind for the rest of the world in regards to right wind extremism.
He made it that way, so he need not complain
Maybe he shouldn’t have packed the courts?
Oh yeah the old "give it back to the states"
I prefer his momentary lapses...please retire sooner.
Why can't he answer a question with a yes or no.
Why do I waist my time
One of the problems in our Government, poster child (old man) for term limits.
watched only half of this slow nonsense. mcconnell is responsible for how america is today. he should have been term limited a long time ago. hes so bad that even his own party doesnt believe what he says or stands for. bye 🤠
HE ADDED BIG TIME TO IT. THE FILTH !!!
I never thought I would approve Mitch 100%!!
Stupid McConnell could have gotten rid of Trump and failed to do it.
slowly slowly too late to help
Great interview he needs to retire. How can you support Trump when everything he says is based on lies?
As a Democrat, i have said for decades: the far left and rhe far right are the same priblems with different excuses. Both groups hide their heads in the sand and cannot see whats true or false. Both see life through theie ideals..
You want to make amends Mitch? Have the the courts overturn the Citizens United ruling and then get a bill passed that reinstates Glass-Steagall, then we might be on the right track again.
Gee, when did you figure that out? You just stupidly told Margaret Brennan you had thought all this antisemitism stuff was long over. Then you said you'd be interested in hearing the "antisemitic people" justify their position. Wasn't Mein Kampf written about a hundred years ago?
Were the 15 who voted against aid, was it because they wanted 1) a better contract/bill or 2) they don't want to give someone a 'win' so they "Just say no" to everything now?
As part of the United States-Taliban deal, the TRUMP administration agreed to an initial reduction of US forces from 13,000 to 8,600 troops by July 2020, followed by a complete withdrawal by 1 May 2021, if the Taliban kept its commitments.
And if they didn't, they'd be dead. (You left that part out!)
@@SpringIsBACK cant you make up your mind? Biden did not initiate the withdrawal both he snd trump had draw downs dufing their admin and both wanted us out of there
Mitch McConnell out of touch too old for real.
Facts? Focused on facts?
Really Mitch what gave it away!
You sure did your part to help!
Thank you
Mitch is Delusional
Mitch McConnell actually said that a President should not have absolute immunity
RFK,Jr is the only one who has said whats actually going on with Ukraine.
Master of speaking without saying much
America can definitely dictate what our money is used on.
This is such backwards thinking. "Most of the money is being spent in the US." The money is going to defense contractors to make bombs, air jets, etc. How is that improving the lives of people here who need things like food, energy, housing, and healthcare? All it's doing is increasing the money supply which makes those things more expensive.
It’s not your job to run other countries, worry about the USA.
For someone with the term "Leader" in their job title, mitchie sure says "my opinion doesn't matter" quite frequently. Want's to play both sides and only take care of himself.
👍m@g@: That's how we roll👍
As much as a I loathe Mitch's politics I still maintain he is since 1985 the most skilled political operator in the US Congress. He is not as skilled as LBJ was but, I still admire his ability to push legislation and policy goals. When he leaves the Congress the R party will have an extremely hard time replacing his experience and calm manner of working for party goals.
MR .MC CONNEL YOUR RESPONSIBLE
Freedom of speech. Leave them alone
Yes Mitch, it is more dangerous. And we are more divided. Absolutely no thanks to you for the situation we are in.
