https://www.reuters.com/video/2019/04/23/mcconnell-vows-to-be-grim-reaper-of-soci?videoId=541468230He's going to be the grim reaper? I think that pretty much sums up his entire career.
How does a single person get to dictate what the entire Senate will or will not do? Especially such a scummy person.

(146,262 posts)He has to run for re-election in 2020. I believe a massive effort to defeat him should be a very high priority for the Democratic Party. It could be done. It should be done.
I would love to see him lose in a humiliating fashion. There is dirt on old Mitch, no doubt. It's time to dig it up and display it openly. I don't know what that dirt is, but it's out there, waiting to be exposed, and there are people who know what it is.
So, let's do it. Let's take Mitch out, once and for all, next November. Spend whatever needs to be spent. Just do it!

(16,076 posts)when not hobbled by silly things like ethics, humanity, or decency, is the most powerful person in the nation, able to decide what legislation can be passed...he essentially has veto power over all legislation.
Of course, it requires a similarly ethically bankrupt majority party.
