Mitch McConnell

President Trump needed to gin up his supporters for January, right, that if President Trump could get his people worked up and out to the polls in January, they could win these two seats.

It's worth pointing out that McConnell, you know, did not put on the table what Democrats wanted, but he did put forward a bill that was $500 billion.

McConnell has been totally AWOL from any negotiations.

It looks to me like the speaker, the Democratic leader of the Senate and former Vice President Biden all have the view that two-and-a-half trillion or nothing.

I think it's extremely important here in the next couple of months not to have any earthshaking changes with regard to defense and foreign policy. I think a precipitous drop down in either Afghanistan or Iraq would be a mistake.

On the possibility of another coronavirus package, I don't think the current situation demands a multitrillion-dollar package.

It seems to me that snag that hung us up for months is still there. I don't think the current situation demands a multitrillion-dollar package.

Mitch McConnell constantly looking to the next election to maintain power, right?

President Trump is 100 percent within his rights to look into allegations of irregularities.

Our institutions are actually built for this. We have the system in place to consider concerns, and President Trump is 100% within his rights, to look into allegations of irregularities and weigh his legal options.

Let's not have any lectures, no lectures about how the President should immediately cheerfully accept preliminary election results from the same characters who just spent four years refusing to accept the validity of the last election, and…

At the risk of tooting my own horn, look at the majority leader since L.B.J. and find another one who was able to do something as consequential as this.

This is something that we're really proud of and feel good about. We made an important contribution to the future of this country. A lot of what we've done over the last four years will be undone sooner or later by the next election. They…

Legitimacy is not the result of how they feel about it. You know, you can't win them all. And elections have consequences.

The American people are about to weigh in on who's going to be the president, and that's the person, whoever that may be, who ought to be making this appointment.

Elections do have consequences.

Mitch McConnell's also publicly said he avoids the White House these days because they have been breaking so many CDC rules.

We have made an important contribution to the future of this country. A lot of what we have done over the last four years will be undone sooner or later by the next election. They won't be able to do much about this for a long time to come.

I've told the White House no on their desire to have a $2 trillion COVID rescue package for people who are really hurting right now in the country.

That's where the administration is willing to go. My members think what we laid out, a half-trillion dollars, highly targeted, is the best way they go.

Mitch McConnell wants less than one-third what the White House wants.
