As a Democrat I tuned in, genuinely interested in what Mcconnell had to say. Realizing how precarious the world situation is and how his foreign policy goals are more in lone with Biden than Trump, I thought I’d hear him speak of common ground and the unified American spirit. Instead, first thing out of his mouth was Biden blaming and division. Not only is the world stage a mess, but our national politics are a mess because of partisans like Mitch.

When he leaves the Congress the R party will have an extremely hard time replacing his experience and calm manner of working for party goals.
