Looking back, I have to give him serious credit for being a menace in the Senate. He was ruthless and cunning during Obama's 2nd term. Specifically when he cockblocked Obama and Merrick Garland from the supreme Court for 2 years calling him a lame duck President. It set Trump up for 3 supreme Court justices whichimo really turned the tide. Like I said I'm not fan but having Trump select 3 Justices and potentially 2 more over the next 4 years, his hardball when we didnt kniw it yet git us here. Again cocaine Mitch is bad but it worked in our favor

I too don't like Mitch and am from Kentucky. I must give him credit for helping pick those judges that Trump needed to fill. Like Aileen Cannon who kept stopping a lot of the wrongful lawfare court cases. Obama left those empty slot of judges for Hillary to fill, but.....WE WON that too.
That was huge for America. That set us up for today's victory. Without him doing that and having conviction to accomplish that, we're in trouble. Thank you Kentucky.
The best part is, he did a good job under President Trump whom he doesn't like, but now his time is over and Thank God we won't have to put up with him anymore.
I understand how you see it Mary.
I agree. He also has a funny ass laughter. Sounds like Clarence Thomas when he laughs. ah ah ah ah.. 😂
Whatever credibility is left, he must block them from putting Kamala Harris on the Supreme Court.
There is no way that could happen IMHO. Not even in my worst nightmare.
I give him zero credit he is apart of the swamp Assassins did so as political theater. Tru.p wasn't supposed to win in 2016. Mean Hillary would have all those pick not trump. And mitch knew it
I'm sorry about the typos it look like a retard did that. Didn't check to see if the phone screwed it up😆
Respect is due to Turtle for blocking Merrick G. for a year until Trump showed up. that is probably the Most important step in bringing today about. Everything else he did was for the Plan. Same with Sessions . Turtle played his role. Q is a prophetic type document. It is an event based book not so much dates.
Henceforth, I will be using Big Mike’d instead of Cockblocked. Carry on.
Trump may potentially replace another 4 justices.
Thomas and Alito are both over 70. Thomas in particular will be 79 when Trump's term is over. The chances of them making it through Trump's term and 8 years of a Dem are extremely slim. If Dems take the Senate in 2 years, that could cause issues with getting the Justice's preferred replacement approved. I love them both, but the best move might be to step down soon.
Sotamayor is currently 69. In April there was a big push to get her to step down while Dems held the Presidency and the Senate. At least some in the party fear she won't make it another 4 years.
Roberts is also 69. There is also speculation around his adoptions and his "centrist" position that often favors the Dems at key times. If he's compromised and WH are in control, he might be encouraged to leave.
The last two are "fringe" speculation, I'll admit. But if Trump names 7 of 9 that cleans up the Supreme Court for a generation, even with somewhat flaky ACB and Gorsuch sitting Justices.
Absolutely agree. His Obama SCOTUS block was pivotal? It was painful to watch his Biden is my senate BFF.
Gray hat? I mean I know he has ccp strings attached but what you’ve pointed out seems to indicate both side are pulling?
