      Well, he’s right. And I have a feeling that they cannot avert shutdown, and it will be hard for the GOP.

      Because let’s face it, no way in hell are the democrats going to compromise on that bill or sit down to discuss it, and no way in hell will the GOP agree with a watered down bill.

      Because when you do a government shutdown—no matter how long the results take, it will be painful for all. And no matter what, people are gonna blame the party responsible for it. And in that case, the party is the GOP.

      As McConnell says, a shutdown is beyond stupid behavior that would cost them in the GOP horrendously.

      We all know this is coming. Daddy trump wants his fire sale. he thinks it would make dems look bad and the mindless lemmings in the GOP will take this one over the cliff.

    4. SubjectNo5281 on

      Yes, we know your party is that stupid Mitch. 

      You also invested everything in Trump, picked the Supreme Court that is driving women away from you in droves, let them pick JD Vance, etc.

      Your stupidity is well known by now friend, but thanks for the heads up. We’re all waiting for you to shove the stick in your bicycle on this too, for you to fall flat on your face, and for your sycophantic base to enthusiastically cheer anyways as if you didn’t just faceplant.

      That’s pretty stupid, buuut, What about attacking Ohio? How about golfing at your golf club house instead of campaigning? What else you got, you ol Moscow Mule?

      The House GOP is going to walk the plank for Trump, this could be a wipeout for them.

      Heartbreaking: the worst person you know just made a great point.

      I guess it’s a good thing the rest of the crazies in the GOP don’t care what that turtle thinks. Let ’em blow their own election odds. It’s just a shame they’re going to put a lot of innocent Americans out of work over this nonsense.

      Don’t listen to that Rino MAGA patriots, shut down the government, that’ll show ’em.

    13. Prestigious-Car-4877 on

      What does the profoundly stupid Papa Trump have to say about that?

    14. medievalmachine on

      Well gee maybe you should have convicted televangelist Trump in Congress when he was impeached of a crime he definitely committed.

    16. HearYourTune on

      McConnell is stupid because he had 2 chances to get rid of Trump during his impeachments and Trump would have never been able to run again,. Now he keeps destroying the GOP (the only good thing) but we have too much chaos and need for MAGA to end.

    17. InevitableAvalanche on

      Ahh, then the GOP will definitely do it because all they have done the past decade is remarkably stupid things.

    18. AF2005 on

      When is this ancient turtle going to retire? He’s part of the reason we’re in this mess.

    19. AlexKingstonsGigolo on

      <Whispering> Psst, Mitch. This is what you taught them to do.

    21. Ok-Abbreviations543 on

      Cocaine Mitch had the chance to convict the Donvict in the 2 impeachments. And of course, he has already endorsed the Orange Menace for a second term. In short, Moscow Mitch eagerly signed up for and basically demanded that the GQP continue to behave in a manner that is “beyond politically stupid.”

    22. Silly-Scene6524 on

      That’s MAGA, “if the government isn’t run if we can’t have an election”

    23. scissor415 on

      That’s been the trump cult, to a T, the last few months, so I expect a shut down.

    27. rgvtim on

      Have you seen your fellow members of the GOP recently Mitch. I can tell you now, at least one member, probably in the house, just listened to you and said “Hold my beer”

    28. ford7885 on

      Broken clocks and turtles can be correct once a day. But you got yourself into this, Yertle.

    31. azlmichael on

      Let’s say you’re counting votes after an election and there is an issue. If the part of the government that resolves that issue is shut down….. The GOP does not expect to win this fall, but they do plan to cheat. They want the gov shut down to make cheating easier.

    32. Brief_Night_9239 on

      If Donald Trump orders the House Republicans to shut down the government, what you gonna do Mitch? The Emperor has spoken you think those House Republicans dare to refuse? It is not stupidity but the complete control of Trump the Republican Party. A sad sad story.

    34. lehcimr on

      Just in time for republicans to remind everyone who they really are right before the election! Merry Christmas Democrats!

    35. mvallas1073 on

      Trump will demand it, because it will “make Kamala/Biden look bad”… and despite it being obvious that Republicans are to be blamed, he will be mostly right. The stupid ignorants called the “undecided” (I call them just cynical dropouts) out there will blame Biden for not “bringing peace to both sides”.

    36. Cigaran on

      He’s only pissed because he won’t get the credit for it. Fuck this ghoul.

    38. 2020___survivor on

      We’re talking about the House Freedom Caucus, Mitch. They specialize in “beyond stupid”.

    40. Grampishdgreat on

      McConnell is, in large part, responsible for this. He’s as worthless as just about every other GOP politician.

    41. gmil3548 on

      If Harris wins and if Democrats out perform expectations in the congressional elections, the most satisfying thing will be knowing McConnel is smart and in reality enough to know what just happened, why it happened, why its his fault, and why they’re probably fucked long term.

    43. No_Pirate9647 on

      And during election year it’s wrong to force in a Supreme Court Judge! Then gotta force one in even sooner!

      Did his turtle O/S reboot? Oops back to factory reset?

    44. bramletabercrombe on

      who cares about effecting peoples lives right Mitch? If it was a a good political move he’d throw Americans under the bus faster than Trump can say Haitians eat cats.

    46. WhoMD85 on

      It shouldn’t ever happen. Period. It’s literally one of their only jobs that they have to do EVERY YEAR. Congress shouldn’t get paid or allow to recess until the budget is passed. Ever.

    48. Mundane_Athlete_8257 on

      Let them do it then. Remind the people how unproductive and chaotic Maga republicans are
