Dick Morris says he normally isn’t a big fan of the Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. But Morris gives high marks to McConnell for announcing he will schedule a vote on the Medicare for All proposal.
What’s good about that? Simple. At least seven Democratic Senators are planning to run for President. If they vote against the Medicare for All proposal, they will be defeated in the Democratic primaries for President. But if they vote for the proposal, they will most likely be defeated in the general election. So they are damned if they do and damned if they don’t.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., says he has enough support to ensure Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh will be the next Justice. A vote on the nomination is expected mid-week.
It will follow a hearing at which Kavanaugh will appear, along with a “surprise” witness dredged up after the fact by the Democrats, who has charged Kavanaugh with sexual assault. It’s possible that the woman, Christine Blasey Ford, will decline the committee’s invitation to speak.
Ford supposedly made her allegations in July, but Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., did not bring Ford up until after the original hearing had concluded. In other words, this smacked of a grandstanding delay tactic by the Democrats.
Tucker Carlson weighed in on the latest turn, which has seen Senate Democrats and their allies, including former Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, badmouthing the “old white men” serving as Republicans on the Judicial Committee. So, the Democrats are essentially exploiting the aggrieved woman to press the party’s typical racism. You have to wonder if they care at all about Christine Blasey Ford. More from Fox News.
As of press time, it’s looking as if Christine Blasey Ford could not meet with the committee Monday, or even Wednesday, so the Republicans are proceeding with a vote on Monday. Meanwhile, the Democrats are planning to amass a bunch of protest activists in Washington, D.C, beginning Sunday and stage some of their usual obnoxious antics. Will keep you posted if anything changes.
Now that Speaker of the House John Boehner is gone, should Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell be next to vacate Capitol Hill? The stalwart “Trifecta” crew of Stephen Green, Bill Whittle and Scott Ott debate the future of the GOP on PJTV.
