Just a heads up-

he is finishing out his term until 2027.

he is only stepping down from head of screwing the MAGA movement via the Senate.

Ky law prevents a the Governor from appointing a rat. Of course we know the law means nothing to them.

Yes, this.

McConnell has had a few good moments, not many.

In 2016, Mister Obama nominated Merrick Garland to succeed Justice Scalia (who died while a member of the court) to be an associate justice. McConnell declined to hold hearings and held on until the senate term ended, thus giving Trump the ability to nom. Important, as we have since witnessed the obedient partisanship of one Mister Garland as AG.

That said, McConnell has mostly distinguished himself as a generally a squish, the very opposite of a brave and strong senate leader.

Something we should have seen coming as the way in which he flim-flammed his way out of military service during the Vietnam war. Nicely, and forever illustrates his lack of character and absence of any sense of duty.
