She’s absolutely right, McConnell’s argument here is a strawman. McConnell only wants moderate Republicans who will support his vision and he almost always fights against solid conservative candidates, just like he and Trump fought against Roy Moore.

The press conference is still ongoing so there may be more for me to post on this later. Stay tuned!
