It Must Suck to Be Mitch Today...

Dude can't even get a Republican bill through the Republican Senate. Even after three attempts. Looks like his leadership has gone limp, somehow. Republican President. Republican House. Republican Senate. After trying half a hundred times or more to repeal the ACA in the past several years, he still can't get it done. Can't complete the act. There's no happy ending for poor Mitch.

I don't know how ol' Mitch can hold his head up, so to speak, really. How embarrassing for him, after all those years.

Poor Mitch. Life's a rhyme with your name it seems. Maybe it's time to resign or something. It's over, Senator McConnell. Over.

He may get performance anxiety after this and be unable to perform during the tax reform act. That stuff can get to a guy...

like normal people do so I doubt it sucks too much to him. Same goes for most of the GOP.

...on Tuesday.

I do admit that I would have thoroughly enjoyed seeing it get voted down again, but I'll take this.

I think the look on his face when Mcain gave a thumb down "NO" vote on ACA said it all!
