Senator Mitch McConnell will be 82 years old in a few days, and it is time for him to go. The Senate Minority Leader is out of touch with Republican voters and is doing his party serious damage.
The turtle, as he is called, got behind the clumsy border bill, which quickly blew up in Congress because it really did not solve anything.
Even a real turtle should have known that. But McConnell did not.
Full disclosure: after Kate Steinle was killed by a criminal migrant who was deported five times before he took Kate's life - I drew up Kate's Law, which would have incarcerated any foreign national who defied deportation for five years.
McConnell refused to put it up for a stand-alone vote, so it died, just like Kate.
I then knew exactly what kind of guy Mitch McConnell is.
If Republican senators don't remove him from a leadership position, the party will continue to suffer. Right now, according to the polls, Americans have a poor opinion of the GOP.
The party needs youth, energy, and perspective. Not hibernating turtles.
See you this evening for the No Spin News.
