Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) received a blunt reminder of his own past conduct after he complained on Twitter about the potential silencing of voters.
“Entire states would be shut out,†he claimed, adding: “This isn’t about new voting laws. It’s about silencing voters who inconvenience Democrats.â€
Democratic National Committee chair Jaime Harrison told McConnell to “save the damn crocodile tears.â€
“Americans lost their voice in the Senate when you denied Pres. Obama his constitutional right to appoint a SCt justice & when you eliminated the 60 vote rule for lifetime appointments to the Supreme Court,†Harrison added, calling McConnell “a hypocrite.â€
