Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's would-be Democratic challengers are raising the stakes amid the coronavirus pandemic, with one saying the Kentucky Republican's actions leave "blood on his hands."

Mike Broihier, a farmer and retired Marine, makes the claim in a blistering two-minute digital advertisement released on Tuesday.

Broihier argues McConnell knew President Donald Trump was unfit for office in 2016 but supported the New York real estate mogul anyway to appoint "far-right judges" and pass "massive corporate tax cuts" for his wealthy campaign donors.

"Because of Mitch, more people will die," Broihier says in the ad. "More Kentuckians will die. Mitch has blood on his hands."

11. Slime Ball

McConnell has always been a slime ball and he has worked very hard to get all his slime ball friends in our government - including his wifey who is head of Transportation Dept. She works diligently to help McConnell get his favorite bills passed - whether good or bad.

12. Moscow Mitch enjoys instilling pain on Americans. It's what he does. As Jon Stewart said, "he

has no soul" Scum, through and through.

13. Every ReTHUGliCON that supported that traitor Trumplethinskin

No matter if they are other politicians or anti-American voters that voted for ANY ReTHUGliCON all have blood on their hands and should be charged with war crimes.

DAMNED RAT BASTARD SOB's!!!

14. When he gets the tRump Virus I hope he can't get tested.

I have other hopes but can't write them here. Karma knows what I mean.

15. I love that ad. I wish more democrats would talk this way. Straight talk the public

Corona Mitch has put our country at risk.

[warmfeet]

17. Quite so.

McTurtle doesn't give a shit about anyone except himself. This may not go so well for him. It may result in some very unexpected "outcomes" for him and his family. If one has no empathy, one certainly won't receive any.

18. Oh my goodness, SO unfair to poor li'l Mitch!!

Why, almost as uncivil as running campaign ads against him during this time of crisis?

Reminder: If Mitch and Mrs. Moscow are seen dining in public, it is your duty as an American to cough on them. (Additional action at personal discretion.)
