“Sources: GOP senators preparing for McConnell retirement”

Hmm...

[Songcraft]

In a spirit of rare cross-party cooperation, the venerable Demonicrat Chuck Schumer has reached out across the aisle, offering Mitcho his two best crack teams of Demonicrat-affiliated BLM and Antifa escort teams to officially accompany Mitcho in his historic return to the sacred senate chambers.   (For those of you not familiar with those two escort teams, here's a brief look at both of them in action.)

Hmmm... If he retires, will it be a bigger loss for the democrats or the republicans?? He does magical work to generate republican support for democrats' big ticket priorities - like going after Trump, passing their trillions of dollars spending to fund their cronies.

Elon Musk had a hilarious tweet recently about Mitch. I can't remember the exact quote, but it was something along the lines of "I often forget which party he belongs to".

The heat lamp treatments must have worked.

Wish it was true but they won’t let him retire. Too hard to get a new useful idiot.

You only get the one quarter to play the life video game, why would anyone not want as much time as possible to enjoy retirement?

McConnell seems souless and empty.

To stay in DC longer than necessary? Why? ...unless you beleive there is nothing better for you as your light dims.

He’s rich. Go look at a mountain. Go look at them all. Be in awe of the miricle of life in an infinite universe.

Who would appoint his successor? The governor? I don’t know anything about him. Is he a dim?
