that I see that there is any change in the offing. Trump is an idiot. McConnell is anything but. Mitch is well aware that his name is irretrievably tied to this moment in history. And there's not a thing he can do about it. He will always be the man that aided and abetted. For good or ill, he has made his bed -- and there is virtually nothing to be gained in a pivot towards oversight or restraint at this late date. It won't change the narrative one iota. And in truth -- it's simply not who the man is. If there were any inkling of patriotism or concern for our system -- it would have shown itself long before this. With McConnell it's all raw politics and power. That's who he is.
