(54,774 posts)I'd rather see him drawn and quartered AND tarred and feathered to be honest. He deserves Karma and dying is not good enough for me. That greedy, sadistic asshole has caused thousands to suffer and die needlessly for 30 years through his evil, maniacal political aspirations.

connections to Russia and help to hide them, after that he could have voted to remove Trump from
office after J-6th and ended his political career, he blocked Obamas right to pick a member of the
SCOTUS to have a hearing in front of the Senate, and he posed with a Confederate Flag too.

Oh, right, McConnell. He's 83. He needs to retire, already. He's poisoned the Senate quite long enough.
