I hope he just up and dies in a couple of days
- At the least I hope he's in the middle of a speech and suddenly stops, staring into space as he loudly shits his pants.
  Edit: Then he dies while shit continues to pool under him.
  
  There are far too many people who deserve to die from shitting themselves to death and don't
Is there any more effective political maneuverer than McConnell in modern times? Outplayed Obama, wrangled Trumps policy into being bogstandard GOP evil, stolen the Supreme Court seat, got many hundreds of judges appointed
A real grinder for evil
Mitch knows trump is going to say the election was rigged again in November, and mitch doesn’t want to be in charge when trump makes him/senate leader take a position on it. Lmao.
Also fuck this guy he belongs UNDER the gulag.
- It's definitely a case of a total shit human being worrying about his legacy. And the fucker will still be in the senate happily doing his part to help Trump and to poison the US until 2027. Unless he dies of natural causes sooner. Inshallah even though I know his ghoul replacement will be just as bad.
Not as cool as him dying on live tv imp
- He still might. He could be on the floor of the senate giving a speech on whatever the fuck that's broadcast live and just die. Here's to hoping.
  
  Some party of adventurers needs to find his phylactery and destroy it, ending the reign of terror of Lich McConnell.
Any guesses on the replacement? Is it as simple as the whip taking over?
According to this it's the three Johns: Thune (the whip), Barrasso (chairman of the Senate GOP conference), and Cornyn (former whip)
mitchkanda forever
"I still have plenty of gas left in the tank, but the demon that follows me around and only I can see keeps loudly tapping his watch so I thought the time was finally right."
Hoping he steps down from life too
"Krusty why now, why not 20 years ago?"
