Oh, the ‘majority leader’ implemented the ‘nuclear option’ and not his democrat predecessor?!?

“ McConnell is done.”
He’s looking forward to dealmaking with Biden.

He extended the nuke option to Supreme Court nominees, right?

Mitch is a CCP bitch and so is Roberts!

Much of Trump's legacy, when it comes to domestic policy at least, will be fleeting.
and who are you? never heard of you, and Trump will go down in hist as the world's greatest leader in the 21century

McConnell “shaped” Trump’s presidency just like Annie Wilkes “shaped” Paul Sheldon’s ankle in “Misery”.
To: rintintin
While Newsweek would publish anything they thought would
slander Trump, McConnell did fritter away an opportunity
of a lifetime.
He and Ryan really proved how badly Trump was needed, and
more importantly why we went outside the party to get a
man for the job.

Mitch is an establishment guy, the Senate is very much an establishment institution- designedly so!
Compared to Obama- who was totally ruled by Reid and Pelosi- President Trump was much more successful at getting his/our way.
Funny that Obama’s extreme ineffectualness was never mentioned by the media...

McConnell is done.Wanna bet? The Republican senators will never turn on him because he protects them from having to go on the record with votes they don't want to have to defend. Mitch is happy to take the heat and be the villain, and they're happy to let him do it.
