I'll bet he doesn't want to tip his hand.
Better to keep the dems off balance and guessing what he's going to do than hand them something to use against him, something they can prepare for.
Very good point, metmom. Keep the Dems off balance.

I watched the speech on Youtube in its entirety (30 minutes). Worth seeing. His speech was awesome in its clarity, argument, and educating we Deplorables about the mission of the Senate, the House, the Executive Branch.
Wonderful history lesson — and harking back to the Founding Fathers and their anticipation of the problems of partisanship and recognizing Presidency as elected by the People must NOT become a PUPPET of Congress.
Mitch McConnell, you have distinguished yourself by putting so many conservative justices on the bench. This speech, and your decisive leadership backing up these words will secure a place for you among America’s finest Senate leaders. I thank you, Sir.
