Summary
Donald Trump allies, including Tucker Carlson and Laura Loomer, are accusing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of orchestrating a “coup” against Trump’s agenda by scheduling early Senate GOP leadership elections.
Carlson, on social media, urged his followers to support Florida Senator Rick Scott as the only candidate aligned with Trump, warning that other candidates oppose Trump’s policies.
Loomer criticized Republicans for not addressing McConnell’s move sooner, suggesting that calls for party “unity” have enabled this alleged attempt to undermine Trump’s incoming administration.
I doubt it. This is probably for selfish reasons.
Wasn’t he on the record criticizing Trump over j6 at some point? Might not have actually done anything about it, but that’s probably incentive to at least want to avoid letting Trump go full dictator, lest he eventually find himself targeted for past disloyalty
He was against impeachment and banning Trump from future office, because he was out of office and it was up to the justice department.
Well Mitch, the hen has come back to roost.
Probably worried about his wife getting sent to prison
