Did Trump just draw a red line in the sand between him and Mitch?

Emerald Robinson seems to think so. Looking for further corroboration.

Good. Fake Conservative Turtle needs to be shoved back into his shell.

He should have NO position of authority.

I think that line has been there since January 6th.

btw, remove his position of leadership and watch how fast this butt hurt clown starts openly voting with Democrats.

He is a sick twerp and the only thing he did well was block Garland from the pathetic supreme court.

If Donald Trump seriously thinks he can convince a majority of GOP senators to remove a man from power who’s a brilliant strategist, has insane institutional knowledge and knows how to win in negotiations against democrats, then he’s sorely mistaken.

If the target audience to persuade was the voters, then sure Trump would win against Mitch. But they’re not the audience, GOP Senators are and thus Trump is in a hole and unlikely to win.

You do understand that the general population is tired of the RINO bull shite. Turtle is the king of the RINOs. He is no different from Ryan. He needs to start walking the talk and stop lining his pockets with the Uni-Party plays.

Trump has begged and pleaded for GOP senators to do several other things he wanted, (while he was in office btw with a massive social media apparatus) and they still told him to frick off.

You think a private citizen Trump who’s effectively deplatformed is going to have a better chance?

Trump so loved McCarthy it is said he called him "My Kevin" Kevin went hunting with the Trump sons.

I know there is no wiggle room to get McCarthy out right now; but I sure as hell hope Trump doesn't allow Kevin to his country club to fake brown nose not knowing he is FOS.

I also saw the clip on Hannity of Trump and Hannity's slobbering over Trump was over the top. I also think Trump needs to show less ego and more swamp clean.

Sure and if the target audience was the voters, Mitch would lose in a landslide.

But they’re not the target audience here, GOP Senators are and there is absolutely nothing out there that indicates they want to dump Mitch McConnell and if Trump is pleading for it in public, that should tell you how it’s going in private.

What's your best example of this?

I don't consider the Merrick Garland deal really a "win a negotiation against democrats" (because it wasn't that at all - although, I accept it's a good example of standing strong to them) so don't say that.

Sentrius believes that Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney are the future of the Republican Party and their best chance to win going forward.

McConnell-backed candidate vs. Trump-backed candidate in a primary. Who wins?

Mitch will croak before his 6 years is up.

You Do understand that Trump could endorse one of their primary opponents and get Mitch out that way . Unless the GOP controls the voting machines then Trumps candidates would take a lot of them out in the primary .

What rock have you been under for the last 15 years? You really don't have to be flogged with the marxist democrat legislation and actions that have slithered right through Mitch McConnell's senate, do you? I mean you may be right that the majority of republican senators are spineless shitbags just like McConnell, but winning against marxists? Anyone with the IQ of a turnip knows he fought the Tea Party much harder and more viciously than he ever did marxist democrats.

Shutdowns, impeachments, COVID bills, and CRs. You know, big ticket items.

Now, the end results of those may or may not be great for grassroots conservatism but they're great for Mitch and enough GOP senators agree with that and think its great for them too.

Democrats are still complaining about Mitch and say shite like even when he's in the minority, he's still effectively running the Senate.
