A lot of ppl are givIng Mitch kudos. Don’t give him sh##. Mitch waited until the very end to cast his vote knowing damn well Hegseth had the votes. If Tillis was a “No” vote, do you really think Mitch would have voted No?
If there's one thing Mitch does well that's not inherently evil, it's count votes. If he knew Hegseth would lose without his vote, I'm confident he would have voted to confirm.
Performative BS. If he really cared and really had a spine in there he would have whipped up enough votes to Impeach 45 out the door after 1/6/21. Everything bad now is the product of his machinations including this rotten Supreme Court.
All young brains are in the process to learn how white men are evils. We can’t stop that unless white adults starts to change. Young brains sharpen than their parents.
The GOP picked three people to vote no so they could have the appearance of not all of them being immoral. They are all falling in line regardless of how they voted.
McConnell thinks a calculated "No" vote that he knew Couchfucker would negate will salvage his legacy. Think again, Mitch. We all remember your goals of killing the ACA, making Obama a one term President and giving Trump a compliant Supreme Court. Your name, Mitch, will replace Benedict Arnold's.
Yep. Mitch is the one that allowed all this to happen. He was the guy that got the work done in the Senate.
On a brighter side. I don't think Mitch will be given a security detail once he resigns.
Security details...? I wonder if that's the deal Trump made with the SS guys he has under his thumb: promising those guys a great federally subsidized business after they retire?
It is typically the same GOP Senate women who are allowed to vote no and give the appearance of having some independence from the craziness. Now, Mitch can join them making it look like he is for whats best for democracy knowing Vance can easily step in with the tie breaking vote.
Bullshit. He was afraid it would cause a rift that would split the Republican Party into MAGAts & Rhinos, effectively destroying the strongholds & power they’ve held (gerrymandered) for decades. Historically, Republicans vote party down ballot. Trump threatening to start a new party was a big deal.
Too late old men. You are totally responsible for all of this. Trump should have been fired years ago. Retire now so we don’t have to see your fraud face
McConnell could have rallied some others but he has no power any more.
I remember the first administration and his cabinet picks. He fired many and now talks about how bad they are. He thought they were great
at one time. It will be a sh*tshow again.
And yet what came to pass was another fine example of hiring for top positions based on merit. Or how a man that couldn't be trusted to wash a stray dog is somehow hired to advise on national security.
O fucking K then
😤😫 this is what happens when they take away “DEI hires” 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ we get a super worthy, merit choice🙄 🙄

Too bad he didn't take action when it mattered - during his impeachment. This will not matter, he will go down in history as a hack that was a key player in destroying our democracy.
FUCK.....this congress just fucked up millions of veterans health care...just fuck this...fuck, fuck, fuck...and I'm one of them....this is a war on women veterans too.
His concern comes too late. He has had numerous chances to do the right thing to keep the orange dictator out of office and preserve democracy but he is too power hungry & greedy to do that. He gets no credit for this pathetic attempt jon his way out along with American Democracy.
If they convicted Trump in one of his two impeachment trials...
Someone refresh my memory. Who was responsible for that? Wait, was that Addison Mitchell McConnell? His legacy is s*** from which there is no recovery.
Mitch should have voted to impeach Trump after Jan 6th riot. Had mitch done his p patriotic duty..we woukd not have trump in office. Too little too late.. turtle man
Too little too late. Trump gave Mitch what he wanted - the Supreme Court. He had the opportunity to cut Trump loose but choose not to vote yes to impeach Trump. GOP talks a big game of masculinity but allows their cult leader to publicly disrespected their wives. Shameful!
Trump and all of its awfulness is the culmination of Mitch’s entire political career.
A sad old man, whose work to return America to an antebellum society was exploited by grifters, he will be remembered as one of the primary ushers of American fascism and nothing more.
Why is everybody making a big deal of this? He would have voted yes if they'd needed him to. He is a lot of the reason we are going through this now. He is NOT a good guy.
Exactly I don't get it. If I stand on the street corner as an old lady gets beaten waiting until they stop to tell them to stop...that doesn't seem so heroic.
He didn't do the right thing. Like every single one of Mitt Romney's votes "against" Republicans, it only happens when they know it can't matter numerically. Do not believe the charade.
It’s fascinating to watch the hand-wringing from folks like Collins and McConnell over Trump’s insanity. Doubtful they will own how much they are responsible for unleashing him on us, destroying this country and endangering all our lives…
That was a throwaway vote. He knew he would be confirmed with the VP tiebreaker so he gets zero credit for doing what should have been the right thing to do. This act will never absolve him from the impeachment votes that have taken us to this point.
Fuckin’ scumbag hypocrite. McConnell had four years to vote his conscious as the leader. Now that he’s on his was out he votes like this. Loser. Spineless loser.
The irony there is that the nomination of a man like Hegseth is a direct outcome of the work McConnell has spent his entire life doing.
It's as if Mitch was Dr. Frankenstein, lowering his creation after the lighting brings it to life and screaming "WHERE THE HELL DID THIS MONSTER COME FROM?!?"

Fuck that asshole
Reality is an illusion.
On a brighter side. I don't think Mitch will be given a security detail once he resigns.
go down in history as one of the Republican destroyers of our democracy.
Wonder who he made a deal with to flip “yes”, so he could get away with it and still achieve the outcome he wanted.
I remember the first administration and his cabinet picks. He fired many and now talks about how bad they are. He thought they were great
at one time. It will be a sh*tshow again.
Let's hold everything else he's ever voted for Nazi rule against him, and his Nazi bootlicking friends.
Just bc you FINALLY woke up, doesn't give them the excuse of "but we're on the same side, right guys?"
Fuck him, the Moscow Turtle of Stroke
How you liking the Supreme Court?

He was MIA as a governor, and is already 0-2 as a senator.

It’s his fault we are in this mess to begin with!
If only he had done the right thing during the impeachment hearings

2. He finished his Koch bros (& others ) assigned tasks so now he can get his -ahem-‘conscience’ back. F him
Watched Carefully and Then COMPLAINED About His Performance
THEY'RE ALL FUCKING HYPOCRITES!
Put it into TV Commercial format to be aired in Fox and other propaganda networks? 🤔
As a private company, they have the right to control their airwaves

No morality detected.
None of it matters. Voting has become for optics.
