Sen. Ted Cruz calls on Mitch McConnell to step down as Senate Minority Leader | Eastern NC Now
after McConnell tried to betray GOP on border
Prominent consevative US Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) has called upon Senator Mitch McConnell (RINO-KY) to step down as minority leader in the wake of McConnell's attempt to help Biden and Schumer pass a border bill that entrenched Biden's open borders policies. "A Republican leader should actually lead this conference and should advance the priorities of Republicans," Cruz declared.
McConnell has been under fire from conservatives for years for his constant surrenders to Democrats on policy rather than fighting. Earlier this week, conservative Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah) called for McConnell's removal as Minority Leader over his betrayal on the border bill.

Who are unfit to govern are Biden and the "woke". Trump governed pretty well for the populist / nationalist conservatives, AKA "MAGA", and Reagan governed pretty well for the traditional conservatives.

McConnell is largely a reincarnation of Benedict Arnold. I can see why the far left troll Bobbie loves him. McConnell is constantly stabbing his own party in the back, as he tried to do on his border sellout.
Ted Cruz stands strong for principle. He would make turtle soup out of McConnell. A Tea Party PAC years ago summed up Mitch McConnell as a chicken: www.youtube.com However, McConnell is usually summed up as "the turtle" because he is always retreating inside his shell. |

Anyone, and I mean anyone, willing to follow Ted Cruz in to battle? Unless we storming the beeches of Cancun, not on your life. Ted is spineless. Even in his 80s, Mitch could kick Ted's a$$.

Senators Ted Cruz and Mike Lee are traditional conservatives, NOT the populist conservatives of MAGA. Indeed, Cruz, whom I supported, was the main traditional conservative challenger to Trump in the 2016 primaries.
Mitch McConnell is an establishment type, thick with the special interests, who was a thorn in the side on many issues both of traditional conservatives and MAGA populist / nationalist conservatives. For example, it was McConnell who refused to cooperate in trying to repeal Obamacare. He also refused to fight Obamacare very hard when it first went through Congress. |

MAGA eats its own.
They will turn on everybody. |

Mitch McConnell sold out traditional conservatives to Obama before MAGA was even a gleam in Donald Trump's eye. McConnell has been a sellout as long as he has been in Washington. I would remind you that Ted Cruz was Trump's strongest traditional conservative challenger in the 2016 primary, and that is who is calling for the removal of McConnell. The other Senator who has publicly called for getting rid of McConnell, Mike Lee of Utah is also a traditional conservative, not MAGA.
LIttle Bobbie is so MAGA-obsessed, he sees it hiding behind every bush. He really needs professional help with his obsession. Traditional conservatives have long regarded McConnell as a backstabbing POS long before MAGA existed. |
