Who does McConnell work for?

From stealing a SC seat that belonged to Americans, to refusing votes on hundreds of bills that Americans need, to installing judges to roll back rights for Americans, to keeping Americans from having the fair impeachment trial they deserve - everything McConnell does shows his disdain for the people of this country.

So, to whom does McConnell answer?

Wealthy donors?
Corporations?
Oligarchs who “invest” in Kentucky?
Putin?
Plain ol’ evil?

Is this man a greedy tool? An asset of another organization/country? Or something else?

And why does the media present this “grim reaper” as normal, when he seems sociopathic?

Who in the hell is this guy?!

Never underestimate the ignorance of the rural Kentucky electorate. The will drink bleach for Mitch. Hopefully some percent with start voting their own interests vs voting the Russian agenda.

He believes his purpose is to stop progress for decades. He knows he needs to maintain GOP control no matter what Trump does. It is his main focus.
