McConnell slams Rick Scott over 12-point agenda, claiming it could cost him reelection

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) hit out against Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) over the Florida Republican’s proposed agenda for the party, calling it a “bad idea” that could cost him reelection in the Sunshine State.

Scott announced the 12-point “Rescue America” agenda nearly a year ago, ahead of the midterm elections, a move that raised eyebrows as he broke with McConnell and other Republican leaders who declined to release a blueprint for how they would govern if they retook the majority of either congressional chamber. The Florida Republican then used that agenda to mount a leadership bid against McConnell last month.

“[Rescue America] is a bad idea,” McConnell told radio host Terry Meiners on his podcast. “I think it will be a challenge for him to deal with this in his own reelection in Florida, a state with more elderly people than any other state in America.”

McConnell says sunsetting Social Security, Medicare is a ‘Rick Scott plan’ only

BY OLAFIMIHAN OSHIN - 02/09/23 10:54 PM ET

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-K.Y.) said in an interview on Thursday a proposed initiative to sunset Social Security and Medicare was not a “Republican plan,” but one proposed and supported only by fellow Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.).

Scott, who was unsuccessful in his run against McConnell for the top seat in the National Republican Senatorial Committee, proposed a plan in 2022 to sunset all federal legislation after five years, forcing Congress to reauthorize them.

“Unfortunately, that was the Scott plan, that’s not a Republican plan,” McConnell told Terry Meiners on his self-titled podcast, noting that Republicans never planned to implement Scott’s policy, even if they had won the majority in November.

Never put your evil plans in writing before you implement them.

Also, don't create a PowerPoint presentation for the coup you are about to attempt.
