    McConnell keeps his distance from shutdown fight. “So, I haven't been sidelined," McConnell said today, per ⁦@tedbarrettcnn⁩. “It's just that there's no particular role for me when you have this setup."https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/03/politics/trump-wall-government-shutdown-latest-mcconnell-congress/index.html …

        only McConnell is stopping the government from working. He can let the bill be voted on and it will override Trump.

        It’s the #TurtleShutdown. If Mitch stopped blockading a senate vote, we could have a veto-proof CR ending the shutdown without Trump doing anything. Call it as it is.

        Time for the non-Russian @GOP to elect new leadership. Cocaine Mitch is just so traitorous and unlikeable.

        I just respectfully emailed his office. I know he’s got the power to fund the government.

        He also shows he’s powerless. They had a deal which was a good unanimous bipartisan vote. It doesn’t matter what he says or does. This putting Americans out of work for no reason is trump’s and the gop.

        Well, @SenMajLdr is right. That would require a spine and fidelity to his oath of office. Same stuff, different day.
