But don't Republicans HATE Big Gov't and thereby the U.S. Constitution? So McConnell doesn't give a rat's ass. He's going to continue obstructing the president, and that's why WE the People need to ensure that the Senate comes back under Democratic control and another Democrat - Hillary Clinton - enters the White House on January 20, 2017.
