Earlier this week Mitch McConnel made news when he took to the floor of the Senate to complain about the “McCarthy-style” attacks on his “good name and record”. But what about Kentuckians? How do they feel about #MoscowMitch? While there are no polls to garner a standard pulse on the voters over the issue, you can’t help but wonder if they feel Mitch is more worried about protecting Trump than his own constituents.
Just last week a group of about 120 retired Kentucky coal miners, suffering from black-lung disease, traveled 10 hours on a bus to meet with their Senator. Once they arrived, they were able to talk to his staff for about an hour and merit about one minute of face time with their Senator before he quickly exited. One person in attendance, Jimmy Moore, the head of the Letcher County Black Lung Association, called the meeting “worthless.” Moore added “he might have stayed a minute” and described McConnell’s conduct as “rude.”
