Make no mistake: McConnell’s Hollywood-style fashion statement on Tuesday night was a

message not only to Ukraine but to Republican voters. The blue and yellow tie is just another signal from McConnell to conservatives that their priorities mean jack squat to him and his friends in Republican leadership. It’s a clear display of the elitist attitude felt by many within GOP ranks, who see Republican voters as nothing more than tools to be used.
