Just so everyone's clear on this, this is not a "receiving the consequences of my own actions" moment. Mitch is LYING.

McConnel has ALWAYS played lightning rod for the GOP, putting his face on the evil shit they do, so people hate on him, instead of the entire party. He knows his role. Don't believe for a moment that he is anything other than ecstatic at the political state of the country.

The fact that he hasn't retired to enjoy the wealth and status he's made for himself just proves it: he LIKES everything that's happening. Dude's gonna die happily in office.
