Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has been under fire from his fellow Republicans lately, but he’s not breaking a sweat. Confident in their chances, McConnell believes the upcoming elections will be a piece of cake for the GOP. With a smirk, he boasts that this year’s map is like finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
Take West Virginia, for example. Moderate Democrat Joe Manchin decided he’s had enough and won’t be running again. This opens up a golden opportunity for the red team to swoop in and claim victory, especially in a state where Trump’s supporters run deep.
?This morning, I officially filed for the U.S. Senate.
We’ve made great accomplishments in the House, only to see them die at the hands of Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer in the Senate.

Over in Montana, Democratic Senator Jon Tester is in the hot seat, barely winning his last reelection. Montana Rep. Matt Rosendale is itching for a fight, not just against Tester but also against McConnell. He’s not holding back, likening McConnell to none other than Chuck Schumer. Ouch!
But is McConnell breaking a sweat over these jabs? Not at all. He coolly brushes off the criticism, mentioning something about needing a furry friend in Washington. McConnell isn’t picky with who joins his squad, as long as they’re wearing his team colors.
