I still don't understand how Mitch McConnell, polled as the most hated politician in his state polling in the low teens to single digits in his state, kept getting re-elected.
Same way they stole the national election(they cheat), but in a shit-hole flyover state like Kentucky, no one cares enough to do anything about it. This man single-handedly killed the country, by denying Obama and Biden their SCOTUS pics and sending us down the path we're on now. You can say it's a combination of a lot of things, but those two things alone have nullified law and order and democracy.
Moscow Mitch McConnell entered the Senate from KY a fairly fresh lawyer with no significant assets; he's now worth over $35m- he got most of it from his wife's father who had a ship business WITH THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT. Kleptocrats no longer really even try to hide their corruption. He stopped the US from stopping the Russians from helping Trump win the 2016 election too. https://www.commondreams.org/news/2019/12/17/ethics-watchdogs-sound-alarm-after-transportation-secretary-chao-delivers-major
been saying for years, all politicians should be required to take the NASCAR approach and wear the patches of their sponsors in public. at least people will know who they're really voting for.
This. McConnell gave Trump 3 Supreme Court justices where he would have had only one otherwise. SCOTUS gave the president virtually complete immunity from prosecution, the death of Roe v. Wade, and too many awful rulings to count. McConnell is literally a kingmaker.

Just imagine a world where money isn't in politics and people are represented. Now look at reality and tell me we are not fucked as a species.

We need some "Russia Gallows" where all these folks who like Russia more than the US need to... go.

Just deport them to Russia they'll be drafted to fight Ukraine and the problem will sort itself out.

Weird how that happens when you allow those who govern to be profiteering on the side.

It's easy if you just ignore the votes and steal the election. Kentucky is a hostage state.

Trump's ability to cause such harm is directly McConnell's fault.
