Mitch McConnell is trying sabotage this key Donald Trump agenda item
RINO Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell wants to set a trap for Donald Trump.
McConnell believes he found his opportunity.
And now Mitch McConnell is trying to sabotage this key Donald Trump agenda item.
Mitch McConnell is the leading warmonger in Congress.
In 2022 McConnell declared that the Republican Party’s number one priority was funding a blank check for the war in Ukraine.
After stepping down as Republican leader in the Senate McConnell took a role as Defense Appropriations Subcommittee Chairman.
That will allow McConnell to work his will below the radar to funnel money to Ukraine and attempt to frustrate Donald Trump’s agenda.
Donald Trump kept America out of new wars in his first term.
This term Trump’s goal is to end the wars in Gaza and Ukraine while preventing war with Iran.
After four years where his own administration attempted to get him impeached and imprisoned because members of the deep state hated Trump’s attempt to deal with Russia and avoid war over Ukraine and Syria, Donald Trump understands that personnel is policy.
So too does Mitch McConnell.
And McConnell is out to frame Trump’s appointees to key foreign policy posts as anti-Semities because they are loyal to Trump’s America First agenda and don’t support another forever war in the Middle East.
“President Trump has committed to restoring peace through strength and standing with Israel. But the folks staffing up his Pentagon operation don’t appear to have read the memo,” a statement from McConnell to Jewish Insider read.
McConnell distorted the records of two key Trump appointees as well as their writings because they oppose McConnell’s push for another multi-trillion dollar war in the Middle East.
“It’s alarming that people can clear vetting after claiming U.S. interests in the Middle East are ‘minimal to nonexistent,’ suggesting that America should ‘militarily retrench’ from the region, or claiming that providing Israel even defensive assistance against Iran-backed terrorists is escalatory. The administration would be wise to steer clear of Pentagon advisors who make their Obama and Biden predecessors look tough by comparison,” McConnell added.
When McConnell says he supports peace through strength, what he really means is he supports forever war.
And McConnell’s targets were Trump’s nominee for deputy assistant secretary of defense for the Middle East Michael DiMino.
DiMino wrote that America had “minimal to nonexistent” interest in starting new wars in the Middle East, a position McConnell opposes.
Dan Caldwell, a top advisor to Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth wrote in Foreign Affairs that America didn’t have an interest in forever wars in Ukraine or the Middle East.
According to Caldwell the United States “should militarily retrench from regions in which American interests are less pronounced, such as Europe and the Middle East, especially when the United States’ current responsibilities can be outsourced to relatively wealthy and capable allies.”
Mitch McConnell wants to wage a battle for the soul of the Republican Party on foreign policy.
McConnell wants to take the GOP back to the days where the Liz Cheneys and Mitt Romneys set the priorities of blank checks to secure the borders of countries like Ukraine and left America’s borders wide open.
