McConnell Bristles At 'Moscow Mitch' After Blocking Election Security Bill | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Moscow Mitch and Cadet Bonespurs are both traitors to the United States of America.
@Brian Allen Barr, Trump and others are lauging at the Democrats who fall apart when Barr utters a sentence of ‘the law’, and at the stupid electorate-too DEPRESSED to do anything.
@Brian Allen Barr has the same sick look on his face as that other LYING clown, Devin Nunes. It is the look of a “man” who knows he has sold his “soul”.
@Kevin Griffin You cultists always seem to omit the fact that the Russian dirt on Trump was sought and paid for by the Republicans first. Inconvenient truth never been a strong point for Republican liars.
@Susan Galea oh you mean Democrat loverboy No Name McStain. Yeah we don’t mention him anymore. He’s your sides lackey.
MOSCOW MITCH my COMRADE, why are you so corrupt?
A Rivera I read this with a Russian accent.😆
RUBEL ……..
@Ralf Häggström … Aluminum mill to be built in Kentucky. Thats what a Senator costs these days.
Yes, it ought to be clear ……………@Rob C
So Mitch put up or shut up. Where’s your bill Mitch 🤔
Moscow Mitch does not want to pass any bill that would protect the elections because the party of Trump is totally depending on help from Moscow ..without that help they will all go down …
Moscow Mitch and Traitor Trump are Russian assets. How else can we explain their Unamerican actions.
Jared is the Omen boy from 666 5th ave. Daddy is an excon.
Melanias parents were card carrying communists back in slovenia but now in the usa .
Barons just another rich pamper boy / anchor baby.
it got to him, the name sticks!
MSNPC HEY MORONS BIG TECH GOOGLE FB UTUBE ARE THE REAL MEDDLERS IN ELECTIONS
Moscow Mitch defended his name. That’s about the only thing he would defend, other than his finances and his enormous ego. Like the republicans haven’t rigged the electoral votes allllll, nope. Moscow Mitch just has to win and gets upset when people call him on his scumminess–is that a word, even? If not we should put it in the dictionary with the definition being, “Mitch McConnell”. He’s a treasonous piece of crap.
Makes sense, if you secure the elections how can the republicans win? They would have to rely on gerrymandering and playing to the xenophobic fears of the mouthbreathers, I guess.
@Luvenia Vaughan
I need a new dictionary.
I looked up, “talking from the a$$”, too, and all I got was, “Trump’s communication device”.
@Tom Ogden you must be in the Navy
@Kevin Griffin, well unlike YOU I do the research and try to look at least three sources. I am sure that you Trump PUPPETS like Trump gets distracted after a couple of Paragraphs.
So after spending what seems like 80 years in the Senate, McConnell will be remembered as Moscow Mitch. 😄
David J perfect
charles harper I like this
I was gladly your 400th thumbs up! Your statement is nothing but truth!
Yes
I wouldn’t trust Moscow Mitch to walk my dog. He is a clear and present danger to the USA and needs to go.
“We agree that Russia interfered with our election.”
So, what’s the hold up? Are you on the fence as to whether or not that’s a _good thing?!_
John Mullis You need to sell all your possessions and give up your salary to pay for your wall! Than we give you a bigly refrigerator box to live in right next to your big beautiful wall!
@John Mullis So,, you are saying its ok for the Russians to come in have their way with our democracy because… you want “de Wall”.
LOL@you
You sir are the reason we dont have flying cars or have colonized the moon.
You sir are the problem.
peter s you and 420s. I thought the wink emoji was for sarcasm. Friendly fire ninjas
peter s if it’s refrigerated I’d consider at these end of times
As long as republican’ts benefit … moscow mitch is all for it … no matter that it shows how weak republican’ts are… They can’t win based on policy or performance … Gotta cheat …
LISTEN AGAIN TO M.M.-IS HE REALLY SAYING ANYTHING?
@James Clay Moscow Mitch is whining about his new nickname. Beyond that, what we won’t hear from this Kentucky liar is why he is letting almost all of the bills coming out of the House sit on his desk.
Was that the first time Mitch actually said russia interfered, in front offl the cameras?? Pretty sad that a corrupted election is needed for repub to win.. Vote
Wow, it only took him three years, unanimous agreement by every US intelligence agency, a Special Counsel investigation and Putin admitting he knew about it.
Lol.
It’s my duty to protect Russia right to interfere in U.S. elections since I have been bought
Yes, we need voter ID to make sure Russians don’t vote. Wouldn’t you agree?
Let’s talk about Elections America has interfered with…even with Military presence, what’s good for the Goose is good for the gander it’s just karma making it’s appearance.
Moscow Mitch and unindicted criminal Trump are still sellouts and traitors.
Da! How you say… Lock them up!
They work hard for glory of mother russia! Nyet?
Patriotism is opposing a President Who violates American values
@J. Noble “Patriotism means to stand by the country; it does not mean to stand by the President.” – Theodore Roosevelt

@Rob C Yiz..preent his picture on a banner “To Moscow Mitch..from Russia weeve lurve.”
Republicans can’t win without a rigged election. It’s so brutally obvious, like omg.
@Julie Ake millions of children? Really? Gross
@J. Jonah Jameson
Please be more specific. How does my opinion differ? That insult was so vague.
Gerrymandering, voter suppression, Russian interference are Republican tools of the trade.
@Raven Stark you would probably just missed the point anyway honey
Moscow Mitch is corrupted and needs the protection of the Mafia Boss
Putin
Sony stroy, more crying👎👎
Moscow Mitch McConnel! A traitor a russian stooge
Securing the election would mean more oversight over republican controlled states where they cheat.
TRUE.
Don’t like the Moscow Mitch name? Then allow the vote to protect our elections you Russian asset puke.
Moscow mitch’s supreme leader trump will be so proud. The world is laughing at the US.
