Oh, that would be you and your rich friends, right Mitchie boy. You, and your rich friends who are now all corporations, who don’t pay taxes in the good-old USA! Out of touch rich old guy who we the citizens get to pay for the rest of his days—disgusting!

Mccconnell calls protestors mobs & says they threatened violence. It is all on tape. It is just that he is trying to prevent people people from doing their civic duty to protest against tyrrany & make no mistake, the majority of gop are 100% corrupt. Fight for America

BretBaier Vote red

senatemajldr 2 more years of you pushing through ultra conservative judges, putting your finger on the scales of justice are what scares me. See you in November

No one like what McConnell is doing

PLEASE PEOPLE VOTE DEMOCRAT IN NOVEMBER FOR SENATE AND HOUSE!!

The Lord isn’t allow to corrupt; dishonest , liars and traitors to come back to lead our congress anymore.

The minority of our nation you mean?

I’ll pray every night they do lose control of the Senate so we can begin to right this country back to normal.

I like what they’re doing

People of Kentucky...PLEASE WAKE THE HELL UP!! try to elect a sane person please!! No more McConnell

Why is this political rhetorical being published under the NPR core account ? It has no place being published under the core account. There is an NPR politics Twitter account for political stuff. nprpolitics

Well we don't like what you are doing. That's the point..

A minority of the people like what they've been doing...most of us can't stand what they've been doing....

“Last two years of President Trump” sounds better than “last six years”. But it’s still two more years of this insanity.

True to form.

Republicans have been ruining the country following Trump. Nobody likes that

So, scary to themselves then!🙄

McConnell is a bad dream that must end soon.

We know Mitch if a judge is not a Republican they are not qualified to be judge. Crazy that you think like that in 2018. Go home. Time to retire

Get this dinosaur out of power

who has liked the nothing you in the senate have been doing ?

Maybe a little more coverage of Sanders, BOTH Obamas, Elizabeth Warren, etc. would be more balanced coverage, instead of the constant media exposure for the GOP. (As they say, even BAD publicity is good.)

That's just it Senator. We don't like what you're doing. You won't nominate quality only partisans. We cannot accept your decisions because you're not making them with good cause.

This is republican election strategy. Bringing out the poor Melania pseudo bully bs is strategy targeted at women to sway opinion. ALL of what they say now is only election spin and strategy. Maybe more coverage of how republicans are suppressing the vote!

That is my dream!!

He's talking about 2014-2016

BretBaier Republicans will add seats after midterms !

Turn limits and a nearby rest home correctional center!!!!

Mitch more than 1/2 of this nation do not agree 😡

'Scary prospect for those who like what we've been doing'. Not for America. It would put back in place some badly needed checks and balances. You know, like what the Founding Fathers intended.

I'm sure it IS scary. Good! Boo!

Gain the senate, then pressure the DEMS to do the right thing, and we might be able to stop the dismantling of our republic.

And who is that the Russian bots?

Wait what? Is Mitch saying the Republicans own the Supreme Court? What happened to a nonpartisan Supreme Court, you dirty greedy old man?

Sounds ok to me

Sieg heil, Mitch!

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

Best thing to happen in 8 years if Senate turns Blue. Mitch would be demoted.

Talk about obstructionists! 😡

Luckily the majority of Americans don’t like what you’ve been doing Mitch.

BretBaier

Exactly!

Anyone that doesn't maintain a higher than fifty percent approval rating in their own state should be barred from reelection.

Try the opposite

Other than racist reactionary tribalistic whites, who else has liked what you're doing senatemajldr Cecil the turtle?

Blue waves a coming!

Who in their right minds even remotely like what the turtle has been doing!? Ruining our democracy, that’s what McConnel has been doing.

Seriously. Someone tell me “what they’ve been doing.” I asked a Republican who was pro-Trump what his accomplishments were and they told me they weren’t going to do my homework. I’m not being snarky. What have they done?

We. Don’t. Like. What. You. Have. Been. Doing.

Oh heavens forbid that closet confederate traitors should be disappointed. Can't have that.

Excuse me Mitch, but NOBODY likes what you are doing!!!

One scary agenda

SenMajLdr, so all the deplorables and sycophants will be disappointed? By itself, that’s more than enough reason to vote for Democrats.

BretBaier ...by the millions.

Guess you shouldn't have alienated 90% of the women in America and most of the men too.

Fear mongering - the GOP fallback position when they feel threatened these guys gotta go!!

The Turtle needs to retire… sickperson TerribleSenator Dinosaur

How can he just act like none of us matter? That we all need health Insurance ? How can he not see that not taking care of Americans only defeats this country? History has taught us this over and over... The GOP has no empathy and had no idea what it’s like for the poor..

Almost as scary as being a boy in America 🙄

Thinking that the only people that like what the GOP is doing are McConnell and his band of senior senators. . .

You are corrupt

You deserve to loose bigly

BTW folks this is a constitutional republic which resulted from a lot of debate and compromise - embrace it's beauty ...

Much scarier prospect if you hold it.

The project Did not approve this project

He makes a good point - get to the polls !

It is clear... there is a divisive population out here and they have been nurtured by Reps like Mitch McConnell.

BretBaier Mitch, please release the dosiay’s the 302’s all the information that Rod Roseinstein has refuse turn over and the names of the gang of 8 b4 election to show “We the Ppl “ How dirty the swamp dogs really are!! This info will help the repub interest in voting RED!!!

You mean, like when republicans controlled Congress Obama's last year, and they refused to even consider a Supreme Court Nominee until after the election 10 months later, leaving the seat open for 14 months?

Scary I'll show you scary

Turn the Senate blue. Women need representation in DC!

Republicans winning and continuing down their current path is scary!

Would be nice if there was some balance of powers- not just in the hands of one party-

Why is that Mitch McConnell? U think the Dems will act like you and refuse to even meet any appointees if they control the Senate? Afraid that What comes around Goes around?

Scary is if they keep stacking the courts with justices like Kavanaugh.

Only deplorable people like what you’re doing Mitch

I love what they’re doing.

BretBaier NPR in Brett I think the American people are seeing enough daily just the last 3 weeks and going to run as going to run up to the election of the best reason why not to give the Democrats of vote for a very long time they do not deserve to hold many office for their actions/ word

FYI.... Fewer people like.... Than dislike, what “you’ve” been doing.

I like how McConnell says, ‘the last two years’ of Trump. It’s almost as if he knows...

It should be scary...

One can hope!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I don’t think that any thinking adult “likes” what they are doing.

This is why you should Vote Blue!

To a radical 30% of America that should not have nearly as much influence as it has. That's what's scary, Mitch.

Like Putin.

Promise?

People like what you’ve been doing? *shudder*
