Mitch McConnell Enrages The Crazies By Condemning Censure Of Cheney & Kinzinger

Mitch McConnell came out and actually condemned the RNC's censure of Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, and that brought the wrath of the party's crazies upon him. McConnell would love nothing more than for the Republican Party to just be quietly evil, but the extremists in the Party want to be evil in the open while pledging undying loyalty to Donald Trump. Both options are bad, and the Republicans are going to continue to fight over what terrible path they want to walk. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Mitch McConnell after several days of saying nothing about the Republican national committee, censuring Liz, Chaney, and Adam Kinser finally came out on Tuesday afternoon when pressed by reporters and rebuked the RNC. Here's what he said. The issue is whether or not the RNC should be sort of singling out members of our party who may have different views from the majority. That's not the job of the R C traditionally the view of the national party committee is we support all members of our party, regardless of their positions on some issues. Whoa, tone down the rhetoric there, buddy. Right? I mean, woo boy. What a strong statement. No, it's weak as possible, but it's, it's a rebuke of the party, I guess. And of course he did later on, go on to describe the events of January 6th as an actual violent insurrection was the words Mitch McConnell used January was a violent insurrection.

And those words could be important to, uh, future court cases, by the way. And yes, Mitch McConnell is right. What the Republican party with the national committee did is absolutely stupid Chaney and Kens zinger. In spite of the fact they don't like Donald Trump and they're serving on the January six committee. They've been very good, little loyal Republicans. Let's not also forget that Republicans had the opportunity to, to play a bigger role in the committee because originally they had wanted to have a committee in the house and the Senate McConnell didn't let it happen in the Senate.

Some of whom are now actually being sought after by the committee because of their involvement in January 6th. So yeah, you had your chance to be a part of it. You chose not to do it, but Mitch McConnell has already off the right now, Sebastian Gorka, other Republicans have come out and said, Mitch McConnell is done.

He's done. Is he, is he really, is this truly a Republican civil war that we're watching right now? And it's over the January 6th committee. I mean, come on, I know y'all have your differences with one another, but can't you find a better reason to fight? I mean, that seems pretty weak either way. It is what it is. The party's fighting. Mitch McConnell has now chosen his side. And the reason Mitch McConnell chose that side is cuz McConnell identifies more with Chaney and Kens zinger. See, they are happy being evil and quiet, you know, passing horrible legislation, screwing over the working class, pushing for endless wars, blocking Biden's agenda. You know, things like that. Typical Republican BS, they get to d
