Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell here, what questions do you have for me?

I want to know why after WE THE PEOPLE gave you Republicans control of Congress you pissed away all the good chances you had to make thing right. Why did you let Obama Care rape the people of their existing health care plans and now are being charged so much more than the policies they had and were forced to give up?
Why is it that Congress has raped Social Security of the money WE THE PEOPLE have paid in and you, OUR SERVANTS have so wastefully put it in the position of default?
Why is it Congress doesn't fall under Social Security instead you voted yourselves a fat retirement even though you don't have to serve 20 years like us VETS who put our lives on the line?
Why don't you all fall under TRICARE like us vets seeing how we are all government employees?
Why is there more millionaires in Congress than any other group in the States?
Why don't you all have term limits like the president?
You all have pissed off the majority of people off in the United States, that's the reason Donald Trump is now the GOP candidate. Just because none of you did your jobs is the reason he's there. Are you going to support him or what?
I really don't expect you to answer any of my question and if you attempt I will not be surprised by a run around reply instead of a down to earth face to face answer which most of you career politicians fail to do!

Thanks for your time

1) When the surge of refugees came rolling out of Syria, the US was quick to offer space available.....yet there are COUNTLESS homeless US Citizens (many of whom are US Military Veterans)....why are we not taking care of our own first?

Will term limits ever be considered for the senate?

I understand that it must not appeal to you considering you have served for 32 years.

Why is it easier to get on the dole than receive benefits from the VA that were earned through blood and sweat?

Are you guys planning on getting any work done or will you just continue to throw fits like a group of spoiled adolescents?

Senator McConnell, thank you for taking time to answer our questions. I am a disabled veteran, as many in RP are.
My question to you is, what is going to be done to help our veterans, get through the VA claims process faster?
When are we going to get the riff raff out of the VA system, and put people in their place who are responsible employees and care about the veterans?

If it takes two VA secretaries to accomplish this mission, to get our VA systems, working for us, instead of against us, why isn't more being done other than lip service?

When someone, in the VA management systems, are found guilty of misappropriating money, hiding or destroying veterans paperwork, and lying about it, when are they going to be held responsible guilty, and paying for what they did? The trend seems to be arresting them, finding them not guilty of anything wrong and putting them back in the VA system.

We need help. The VA system has had a bad name going all the way back to WW I, and possibly the civil war. My dad went one time and said he would never go back in his lifetime. I cannot express to you how serious a problem this is in all the VA hospitals. At my Houston VA there are vets driving three to four hours to get treatment because their VA is not equipped to help them. Please take this problem back with you and demand something be done soon, before another vet dies waiting to get the help he or she earned and is entitled to.
Again, thank you for your time.

Why do we give special preferences to illegal aliens and refugees and other foreigners over US citizens? There are numerous people trying to enter the US legally, are good people, properly vetted but can't, spouses of US citizens even. But we welcome non-vetted (or not properly) people who have no connection to the US, who are a real potential threat? Why and when will legal American citizens (in this case legal spouses) have priority over non-US citizens?

Senator Mitch McConnell,

Thanks for joining us and opening up the floor to questions. As you can tell we are a very passionate group of individuals who have taken quite the brunt of the politicking especially over the last ten years. You've been in the Senate since before I was even a thought, but I have to admit I didn't know much about your stances and had to do some research on recent bills regarding Veterans. Honestly, I knew it was bad, but did not truly understand how much the parties used bills that would benefit veterans as power plays. A few such bills include most recently the cuts to the Veterans Affairs Funding Bill, Women Veterans and Families Health Services Act, Veterans Health and Benefits and Military Retirement Pay Restoration Act, Veterans Jobs Corps Act, and the Homeless Women Veterans and Homeless Veterans with Children Act. Each of these bills had the opportunity to make Veterans lives a little better, to ensure they get the necessary treatment, to expand education and health care, to allow Veterans and Service Members to start families even after being wounded... But instead each party dug in their heels because it may have involved Planned Parenthood, because they didn't want the other party to get a win, because for whatever reason the Republican Party felt they needed to include sanctions on Iran in a bill regarding Veterans.

I know this is a lot of build up, but my question is what is your long game to help those who have served this nation and have endured years of conflict and how do you plan to get the legislation passed? Thanks so much for your time.


We need to do better.

Thank you for taking the opportunity to answer our questions Mitch McConnell
What will you focus the Senate's attention on for the first 100 days of the next administration? What are your top three legislative priorities for the incoming Senate?
[Update] I removed several questions from my original post and am reposting them individually.
I apologize for the sniping comments of my colleagues on this net.

Mitch McConnell Sir, Thanks for your time and for joining us here. As the Majority Leader of the Senior house of the Congress whose power to declare war is clearly established in the Constitution, can you explain why the last declared war was WWII and we have been openly kinetically engaged in multiple nations for over 15 years and less openly engaged in over 70 nations for longer without a declaration? What are your plans as the Leader of the Senate to address this bi-partisan Executive Branch over-reach and Legislative Branch abdication of duty?

(edited to address only one key question for time)
