#MissKittyPolitics Yea, the moron from Alabama, Senator Britt, is correct. It is way not good faith on GOP's part. Thus it is as I have been saying, #WAR. Senator #Britt is an #accomplice to first degree #murder. I want that trial. After #Thune. After Johnson. They all wearing #Depends these days.

Last year Dopey Yam told everybody the Chinese would pay his enormous import taxes. Now he says Walmart has to pay them. Hmmmm. Where's Walmart gonna get the money for that?

Now Dopey Yam is lying and telling everyone "Xi called me! Xi called me! Xi called me!"

It's pathetic, but par for his course.

Ruhle and Hayes are right about Tesla and the economic outlook as a whole.

"Gee, I wonder if people would be more energized to support a party that used every tool possible to fight fascism rather than sit around and talk about egg prices.

Such a mystery!"

Me: They have to demand impeachment.

Dork: They shouldn't talk about impeachment. They don't have the votes.

Me: Their job is to get the votes, and to get the votes they have to make the case that it is absolutely necessary.

Senators are privately (and publicly) saying they hope Donald Trump
💥stays out of the internal election to replace #Mitch #McConnell as Senate GOP leader.

Why it matters:
None of them know — or it's a damn good secret — whether the felon-candidate will make an endorsement.

But senators and advisors fear a Trump intervention could turn the secret ballot leader election into a public feud.

"I said, 'Sir, if I was you, I would stay out of the race, because there's no win for you in this,'" Sen. #Markwayne #Mullin (R-Okla.) told us about a recent call with Trump.

"I hope not," said Sen. #Thom #Tillis, when asked if he thinks Trump will weigh in. "I think outside influence could be problematic."

"He's offered some views on it to me,"Sen. #Josh #Hawley (R-Mo.) told us. "It's safe to say he has a pretty consistent prediction of who he thinks it'll be." -- Hawley said he did not know if Trump would weigh in.

Between the lines:
This the first real competitive Senate GOP leadership race of the Trump-era,
and his endorsement still carries a lot of weight with a segment of the conference.

McConnell has had a tumultuous relationship with the pussy-grabber.

The top two candidates
— Sens. John #Thune and John #Cornyn
— each have had rocky relationships with Trump.
However, they have worked to make amends.

After Jan. 6, Thune denounced Trump and initially endorsed Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) for president.

Cornyn has said the GOP needed to move on from Trump.

Senate sources do not talk about Sen. Rick #Scott's (R-Fla.) bid as seriously as Thune's or Cornyn's, though he has a good relationship with Trump.
"Sen. Scott is focused on dramatically changing the way the Senate operates and creating a member-driven process," according to spokesperson McKinley Lewis.

Sources often describe Thune as the likely favorite,
though they say not to discount how much Cornyn's long history of hard-dollar fundraising for Senate campaigns means to people.

Cornyn told us it's been a few weeks since he spoke with Trump about the leadership race.

But he visited Mar-a-Lago a couple months ago "to talk about planning for the future,"
adding they've been "visiting with some of the transition folks."

Mullin said Trump "likes" Thune despite their rocky past.

The Oklahoma Republican has publicly backed Thune.

Some sources suspect there could be a late entry:
NRSC Chair Steve #Daines (R-Mont.) is the most-floated name.

The bottom line:
There's not a lot of incentive for senators benefiting from both Thune and Cornyn's aggressive fundraising efforts to commit too early.

"If one of them felt that they really had a majority, I think they would not be shy about saying that,
but I don't think anybody does," Hawley said.
