"Better Call Mitch"--

WSJ paywall
They talk about Vance and Masters and close with this
The truth of the matter is Trump has done nothing organizationally to support those he endorses. His so called rallies are private enterprises that are not intended to raise political funds---since he is not a candidate he can do such things--pocket your money like WWE.
Trump signed the McConnell tax cuts, signed off on over 200 judges McConnell selected and signed all kind of legislation McConnell sent to his desk. His biggest accomplishments as President were organized by and sent to his desk by McConnell. Because McConnell call BS on his January 6th crap Trump now hates him. It's Trump's way every time or out the door. I suspect he really hates it now and will hate it even more if McConnell is successful in securing the Senate for republicans. One thing is for sure Trump is more about praise for himself than what is good for conservative politics everybody can see that.

The biggest campaign story last week wasn’t Mitch McConnell’s warning that Republicans might not retake the Senate in November. That’s been clear since the party nominated so many candidates whose main advantage was support from Donald Trump. The big story was that those candidates are now calling on Mr. McConnell to come to their rescue.

These better-call-Mitch appeals are happening at the same time Mr. Trump’s allies are attacking Mr. McConnell for telling the truth last week about GOP Senate prospects this year. The Minority Leader mentioned “candidate quality” as a factor in Senate campaigns, which is also true. Only the willfully blind can look at several of the Trump-endorsed nominees this year and claim they were the strongest candidates in the general election.
Arizona is a good example. Mr. Trump vowed to defeat the popular two-term GOP Gov. Doug Ducey if he ran for Senate because Mr. Ducey wouldn’t work to overturn Mr. Trump’s 2020 defeat in the state. Mr. Trump also trashed the capable Attorney General, Mark Brnovich, who ran and lost. The former President backed Mr. Masters, a political novice supported by financier Peter Thiel. But Mr. Trump’s support may hurt more than help in the general election, and he has been reluctant to share his financial campaign wealth with others.
Mr. Trump has shown he can help candidates win primaries with a plurality of the vote in a crowded field. What he hasn’t shown is that he can lift them to victory against Democrats in states that aren’t solidly Republican. He proved the opposite with his sabotage of the two GOP candidates in the January 2021 special elections in Georgia that cost Republicans control of the Senate.
That’s why the candidates he favors are now desperately seeking the help of Mr. McConnell, the leader Mr. Trump wants to replace.

Why doesn't the Republican Party trust their voters and agree to fully support the candidates their voters choose in fair elections.
Things are upside down in politics and it's the very reason McConnell gets people like Trump thrust upon him.
McConnell wants his candidates, the ones that pay lip service to voters and do it Mitch's way in DC.
It's the problem across the spectrum. You don't know what's best for you, we in DC do. Listen to us.
People are sick of it.

The WSJ News Division and Editorial Board both suffer from TDS.
News Division letter from their woke reporters to the Editorial Board finally has turned the entire journal woke. Pitiful to see.
40 year subscriber. Debating with myself whether to renew.
My wife, No pics, says hell no.

GOPe/Rinos are setting the stage for rigged elections. What he means is that the America 1st candidates will win, but the GOP doesn’t support their USA 1st policies & ideologies.
So they will not contest elections, they will allow the corruption to take over and they will not go out of their way to help these candidates.
That way, when WE SEE & BELIEVE that the elections are rigged, they will say “we told you that it didn’t look good, our polling showed these candidates are weak, oh well, we will get them next time”
Polling & Posturing as weak is the GOPe game-plan. And if we do not win the majority of these seats, we can kiss this country goodbye, b/c it will confirm the level of corruption to 3rd world banana republics.
Controlled Opposition is under attack from within & they are flipping out.
Cheney is going to lead the “America 1st Opposition Party” campaign by sliding those campaign funds to this entity and we will be battling our own party on top of the Marxist.
Any liberal on this board, please do some critical thinking for the 1st time in your life.
Ask yourself, why do these war mongers, Federal Reserve puppets hate the America 1st movement?
What have they done to improve this country? What do you agree with from the Left?
