If nothing else, McConnell is a Machiavellian. He will do anything to get and maintain power. Even if it means the destruction of our country.
The only thing he respects and understands is raw power. Laws and rules are nothing but speed-bumps for Mitch McConnell.
As he criticized the House for rushing thru the impeachment, he broke the speed record for acquittal in an impeachment trial. He was not looking for justice or truth. He was looking to maintain the status quo.
He has no understanding of our Constitution or the ideals within its words. It is only good if he can use it to further his political power grab.
He is just as dangerous, or moreso, than Donald J Trump or his Atty-General, Bill Barr. He has no interest in helping the people for the common good, only for his special interests.
He has done great damage to our nation. It is a sad tragedy that the people have not been able to see the real Mitch McConnell.

Definitely worth looking into and getting others in your state involved as well. Good luck!

Kentucky has a lot to live down, and I'm not even addressing Rand Paul.
