Mitch is so obsessed with maintaining Repub power he's supporting Trump, too, if only in a silent way. With WH & Senate in their control, Mitch can continue filling the intentionally open fed judicial seats with young ideologues who will taint the system for more than a generation.

Most people are woefully ignorant of almost everything. And the internet only makes things worse.
