With rumors swirling of Manchin and even possibly Sinema jumping to Republican, Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell adds fuel to their fire by blasting recent Democrat election strategy as a death wish. And furthermore, Democrats seem hell bent on continuing this walk over a cliff in 2022. Could the Republicans pick up 50 in the House, 6 in the Senate?

FNC: “Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell celebrated Glenn Youngkin’s sweeping victory in Virginia’s gubernatorial race on Wednesday, calling it a ‘referendum on the popularity of the Biden administration’ and a symptom of growing opposition to the Democrat agenda.

As for the 2022 midterm elections, McConnell doesn’t have high hopes for Biden’s “midterm report card,” emphasizing that ‘the American people gave the Biden administration yesterday, an F.’ In an appearance on ‘The Story’ Wednesday afternoon, McConnell, R-Ky., told host Martha MacCallum that Democrats would have likely sustained a far greater defeat had their social spending bill been passed at the time of the election.”

“I would argue had they already passed this tax and spending bill, they would have lost worse. I think the American people are saying don’t do that- don’t double down on taxation and spending. The American people have had enough of all of this excess, and I think they sent a message yesterday: stop. That’s the message that should be taken by the Democrats out of yesterday’s election.”

“What happened yesterday… I don’t think it was about the Democrats’ failure to do it,” McConnell said. “I think It was because people didn’t like that they were trying to do it. And getting a result on this massive reckless tax and spending bill is not going to improve their position with the American people…The wind will be at our backs next year.”

Speaking of next week’s budget vote McConnell said, “Not a single Republican will vote for this,” he told MacCallum. “Every Democrat could kill the bill, modify the bill, that’s in the hands of Manchin and Sinema. They will be able to determine what it looks like. I think the best advice I can give them politically after yesterday, they ought to drop the whole thing.”
