On Fox News Sunday, Dana Perino asked one of her heroes, Cocaine Mitch, what Republicans’ priorities would be if they take Congress. Mitch:

Inflation: “We’re going through what we’re seeing now because of the trillions of dollars the Democrats dumped into the economy. We’re drowning. We’re going to get that under control. The spigot will be turned off.”

Education: “There are crazy things going on with education now. We plan to return education to those who should be in charge, the parents. And people need to be financially responsible. We need to encourage that in America. There will be no cancellation of student debt.”

Crime: “Crime is out of control. We are going to return to being serious about crime and punishing criminals. Like we used to do.”

Defense: “We need to spend a lot more on defense and security. Biden’s call for more military spending doesn’t even keep pace with inflation. We need lots more. We have serious issues with Russia. We need to make sure we have every resource and tool to do whatever we need.”

Translation: we're gonna try to pass a whole lot of shite that we know the Potato will veto, because we're happy being the Loyal Opposition and can fundraise on the platform of "oh well, we tried".

Yes.

He says the last $2T was too much.

Again, our choices suck.

Republicans = financial irresponsibility

Democrats = financial irrelevancy

I don’t believe a single word any of these political fricks say. If their lips are moving, I assume they’re lying and start from there.

You mean our plan is to not get anything done and secretly go along with what China and our handlers want. In the meantime we will act like we are against the other side while padding our pockets and continuing to enslave humanity. We will give billions to the military but we will remain 20 years behind China and Russia in hypersonic weapons technology which we gave them in the first place.

I'm sure you meant to say "the states" Mitch. Surely that was a slip of the tongue.

Can't do anything about the liberal hell holes and liberal judges.

With he and Graham, I see a lot of backpedaling and compromise with the dems.
They don't have the ability to efficiently restore the economy.

Never forget these morons voted like 500 times to get rid of Obamacare because they knew Obama wouldn’t sign it then refused to do it under Trump who would sign it. This is the same exact game and people will fall for it again

Fact.

What does McConnell intend to do about Kim Foxx? Or other Soros prosecutors who refuse to prosecute? Nothing. He won’t even dare say the name Soros. He’ll pass some meaningless virtue signaling legislation and weakly pound his elderly chest.

I’m reminded of a quote from The Devi’s Own...


“Did they ever get the frickers?”

“They are the frickers.”

Way to go Mitch...

Dems spend to much!

we need to spend more on Defense!

not a fricking word about:

Immigration
Trade policy
Regulations
Energy

You know...the shite a LOT of people care about. Truth be told, the feds shouldn't be doing shite about crime and education (other than eliminating the Department of Education).

Where's the well-placed meteor when you need it?

So would you rather them pass things or not do anything for two years because Biden will veto it all?

Me thinks you would bitch regardless.
