Grassley Vows to Take Back the Senate, Says McConnell Was Just Trying to 'Wake People Up' With His Glum Comments
By Bob Hoge | Aug 19, 2022 10:30 PM ET

Republican Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa told Fox News on Friday that Mitch McConnell’s glum warning about the GOP’s Senate prospects in the midterms were an effort “to wake people up.” The Kentucky Republican Senator had said on Thursday, “I think there’s probably a greater likelihood the House flips than the Senate. Senate races are just different. They’re statewide. Candidate quality has a lot to do with the outcome.”

Many interpreted this as the minority leader attempting to downplay expectations, and were not pleased:

But Grassley painted a rosier picture as he attended the Iowa State Fair:

    We are going to take back the majority because of the fact that the president’s approval rating is under 40 [percent] and all these problems with the economy, people’s pocket books are being robbed every day because of Biden inflation.

The problem is Mitch. He doesn't want those candidates to win because they won't be supporters of his speakership, and he doesn't like his job in jeopardy.

Repealing the seventeenth amendment would go a long way towards getting us back to constitutional government. What was congress thinking?

McTurtle trying to wake people up? Horse manure, more like trying to depress the conservative vote by sowing apathy.
