These people are lunatics.
Dana Milbank, a columnist for the Washington Post, said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell “is a Russian asset” in an opinion piece.
“This doesn’t mean he’s a spy, but neither is it a flip accusation,” Milbank said in the Friday column. “Russia attacked our country in 2016. It is attacking us today. Its attacks will intensify in 2020. Yet each time we try to raise our defenses to repel the attack, McConnell, the Senate majority leader, blocks us from defending ourselves.”
“Let’s call this what it is: unpatriotic. The Kentucky Republican is, arguably more than any other American, doing Russian President Vladimir Putin’s bidding,” the 51-year-old writer said.
Milbank’s criticism follows McConnell blocking a series of bills last week that proponents said would help promote election security.
