Amy McGrath Announces Run Against McConnell


Former Marine aviator Lt. Col. Amy McGrath has announced her candidacy for the Dem nomination for Senate in Kentucky. McGrath would face despicable and corrupt Mitch "Missy" McConnell in 2020, a defeat that would be nearly as important as that of sociopathic Kremlin asset Donald "Rump" Trump. In announcing her run for McConnell's seat, McGrath said:
“I’ve been always somebody who stepped up to the plate when asked, when I felt like my country needed me, and this is one of those times,” McGrath said in an interview.

She is attempting to repeat her viral moment with a new video, one that leans hard on idealism while also attacking McConnell as the embodiment of a dysfunctional Washington.

'I felt like somebody needs to stand up to him,' McGrath said." (our emphasis)
McGrath ran an ultimately unsuccessful race against Republican Andy Barr in 2018 that was decided by only 3 points in a red district. Here's her powerful and moving roll-out video, "The Letter":



"Defeat Mitch. Defend Democracy." That's it in a nutshell. Here's her campaign website; you know what to do.
