Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has vowed to protect this country from socialist legislation. Well, he was far more colorful in his vow …

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell vows to be “Grim Reaper” for socialist legislation https://t.co/3pMcUG50pf pic.twitter.com/epJT7mpmH9 — CNN Politics (@CNNPolitics) April 22, 2019

From CNN:

Speaking at an event in Owensboro, Kentucky, McConnell, who is up for re-election, told his constituents that as Senate majority leader he is uniquely positioned to block socialist policies that he warned many on the left wing of the Democratic Party are pushing. “We are having a legitimate debate about the virtues of socialism and I don’t want you to think it’s just a 28-year-old congresswoman from New York. This is much broader than that. I’ve got five colleagues in the Senate, five colleagues running for president, who have signed on to the Green New Deal and Medicare For All,” he said.

Yeah, AOC, we’re pretty sure he was trolling you.

And it worked.

Step 1: Call yourself the “Grim Reaper for socialist legislation” Step 2: Call anything + everything “socialist legislation” Step 3: Profit… (…from $300/mo insulin, fracking pipelines, poisoned water, for-profit prisons, pricing out communities, assault weapons, etc) https://t.co/2885yShaZU — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) April 25, 2019

Profiting from poisoned water?

Huh?

Where did she get that?

You know what, never mind.

How do you get to #3 there? — Matt Whitlock (@mattdizwhitlock) April 26, 2019

We have no idea.

Republicans love profiting off poisoned water. You caught us! I am disappointed but impressed. — Anthony Bialy (@AnthonyBialy) April 26, 2019

Socialists are onto us all! Run!

At least he’s found a place to live rent free — GW (@GregBW12) April 26, 2019

We see what he did here.

Well-played.

Or maybe he thinks that your programs will lead to mass poverty and actually hurt all the people you claim to want to help. What is with you guys always assuming that people who disagree with you have the worst intentions? — Andrew Twentyman (@AndrewTwentyman) April 26, 2019

If her ideas were so great she wouldn’t have to force Americans to adopt them via legislation.

Socialists. Right?
