Blocking Garland’s nomination
Allowing Garland to become a feckless AG
Acquitting Trump twice
Stacking the court 6–3
Abusing the filibuster
Sabotaging election security
Fueling division and dysfunction

Mitch McConnell didn’t just enable Trump—he architected the road to American fascism.

Burn in hell, Mitch.

this is your fault Mitch.
eat shit.
- Lmao I hope he sees pitchforks before he dies.
  
  I hope he feels pitchforks before he dies.
- How could this possibly Moscow Mitch's fault!?
  I can't wait till he dies so I can book my flight to piss on his grave.
  
  I will be attending the group poop on his grave, no doubt. Rest in pieces, Bitch McConnell.
- Mitch never saw a "War with Russia" bill he didn't endorse. He's old school Neocon and was wholly on board with the project for post-Soviet US global hegemony. I don't think its strictly fair to say "Russia Wins, America Loses" is his fault, because he was working overtime to get to a future in which Wall Street and The Pentagon controlled it all.
  But his all-in bet on Moderate Amounts of Fascism tipped the board. He put far too much effort in winning the next electoral cycle in pursuit of a permanent Republican Majority. And when he finally got what he wanted - not once, in '16 but twice with a second GOP clean sweep in '24 - he looked up to discover the prize came with strings attached.
  Turns out, the US isn't the only country that can meddling with elections and affect regime change through soft power. Now we're getting a wave of modern White Nationalism that's aligning DC, Moscow, and perhaps London and Berlin depending on how the chips fall in the next few elections. Its not America or Russia that's winning, but a cartel of plutocrats and their bloodthirsty groyper minions, in an unholy new internationalist Axis of Evil.
  
  the deep irony is that the people electing the globalists are frothed up to do so by the fear of globalism.
  
  Hey, I'm a newbie here from Reddit. I like your comment enough that is like to follow you, but I cannot figure out how; can you help?
- Old school Republicans were fine with a Republican President having this power, just not Trump.

- Treason, convicted for treason, has such a nice sound to it.
- Someday soon a flight of stairs with an uneven pitch will end him and those stairs will enter the pantheon of heros with Luigi.

Fuck you, turtleboi.
You did this. You materially and consistently helped this to happen.
YOU FUCKING DID THIS.
- the right has no room in it to consider the possibility that the hippies, punks, black panthers, or any other anti-authoritarian movement, has a point until it's already too late.

I don't understand this mother fucker. He worked all his life against this country and now he's shocked its having issues and may lose ground to a competitor?
- Reminds me of German chancellor Franz von Papen. He was instrumental in bringing Hitler to power but he never accepted responsibility for it, even though he lived until 1969!
- He's not the majority leader any more, and without all the sycophants flattering and distracting him, it turns out that someone has been systematically sabotaging US democracy going back years.

Your fault, dipshit.

says the motherfucker who's entire career has been to attack his own country and sell it to Russia...
- Maybe this was a celebratory statement?
  
  Oh lord, you could be totally right
- China.
  Source: crack pipe. Also his wife

SHUT THE FUCK UP ADDISON. YOU ENABLED THIS.
sincerely your constituent
fun fact addison has weak, really moist hands. I should know, I shook his hand* in college.
*edit- damn autocorrect
- I shook his head in college.
  Is that what happened to him ? Shaken head syndrome ?

Moscow Mitch trying to confess to get to heaven. I hope this guy ends up like promethous.
- He is desperately trying to redeem his legacy for future historians, now that he realizes he is going to be taking the blame in future history books for enabling the MAGA scourge. He has finally figured out that he will be remembered as one of the worst, most destructive, Americans in history. He deserves it.
  I hope he believes in God so he can live in terror of the afterlife during whatever life he has left.
- I second the Prometheus idea.

ironic that someone who was instrumental in getting america to where it is today would be saying something like that. EAT SHIT YOU FUCKING CUNT.

...then fcking impeach, you whiny little bitch...

Imagine the one guy who can be credited the most (aside from Trump/Musk) with us being where we are, complaining that we're here.
I want to punch him till his face is flat....
- And I would like to give him a shave til his face is concave

This guy bred the face-eating leopards for decades.

Entirely a product of his design, Russia would not be anywhere near as influencing today if not for his regressive agenda and undermining US democracy.
Without Moscow Mitch, Putin would still be at the Ukraine border throwing tantrum as more sanctions are thrown in his regime.

Either do something or stfu, traitor.
- Technically he is the lone GOP senator to vote against 3 Trump nominees and to openly side with Ukraine.
  If we celebrate him and a few more GOP jump on tbat bandwagon it could be phenomenal.
  
  Only way to celebrate McConnell imo.
  That or send a Mario brother to deal with a turtle.

This is fucking Bitch McConnell's fault almost entirely
- He was the 21st century problem, but he can share blame with Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich, who built the foundation that McConnell stood on.

Russia already won, you fuckweasel.

and who's fault is that mitch? you dumb bitch. I hope this fuck lives long enough to suffer for all the damage he has done
- slight nitpick, it's "whose", not "who's". "Who's" is who is.
  
  FUCK. yep you got me.
  I still fucking hate mitch tho
  
  Who you gonna call?

Sub headline: Moscow Mitch Russian MVP.

Why would he warn about something he himself arranged? Is he warning the american people who are dumb enough to vote for him and his russian partners?
- Just announcing the success of his life's work lol.

Much thanks to you, Moscow Mitch McConnell.

I hate that we're still thinking about things in these terms. It's not Americans versus Russians, it's Americans, Russians, and pretty much everyone the fuck else versus our leadership. Putin fuckin sucks, so does our leadership, and it's the people of the US, the people of Russia, and all the people we impact that pay the price for it. If the average Russian gets ahead in life over me, it doesn't impact me. In fact, good job, bud, I'm happy for you. If our fucking asshole leaders get yet another leg up, though, it impacts basically everyone.
- Gotta tell ya, there are an unfortunate number of Russians and Americans that support shitty leadership because they’re shitty people and they want shitty things to happen, and a bunch more that are willing to look the other way if they perceive it helps them somehow.
- I said this years ago and got flamed on Reddit.
  The oligarchs and the intelligence agencies of every major power are more friends than they are with citizens of their own nations. China and the US and Russia are friends at a certain income threshold. The enemy bullshit is for us peons
- It's a class war, but ordinary people have been effectively deprived of the ability to realize this. Marx had it right about the need for class consciousness.

You enabled all of this you crypt keeping turtle

Ya' think? We've been saying that all along. But, nope, gotta keep your seat in Congress for just one more term. Idiot.

Yeah, no shit Michie, that is what you've been working on all this time
If you're too dumb to understand that then...nog fuck it, just die already and them please, and I mean this with all the passion in my atheist heart; burn in hell. Forever.

Insert image of guy in hot dog suit here

You did that, you fucking moron. God damn Mitch is acting like he's just some misunderstood good guy when he's why it happened. Moscow Mitch is a nickname for a reason.
- This is no longer Mitch McConnell, this is a dying old man thinking of what he's going to say to St. Peter.

Fuck you, McConnell! You could’ve fixed this easily years ago. Instead you were too far up Donald’s ass. Go to hell!
- Trump should begin a new human centipede. Musk goes first, followed by whatever first magat comes around.
  When the centipede is complete, it unlocks the path to Putin's ass. Trump finally bites firmly into those flopping anal wrinkles and attaches himself permanently, creating

I don’t think there is one person who was more in the right place to stop this than Mitch so yea - fuck you Mitch

- I figured they were typically resting on his chin with the mushroom in his mouth.
  But maybe he likes to chortle the balls.
  
  You're probably right, I always assumed he just withdrew his head back into his shell when he was threatened; you know what they say about assuming!

he's trying to find the guy who did this

I can not wait for the cross-country road trip I'm going to take to piss on his grave.
- I think urinals should be installed over his and donvict's.

All thanks to him.

A headline I look forward to: "Mitch McConnell dies; no one mourns"

Future headline? That was the headline on Nov. 6th last year.

Yeah, good job Mitch you stupid MF.

That's already the headline, Moscow Mitch (you fucking bitch).

Mitch McConnell's only possible path out of hell is to strap 20 pounds of C4 to himself and going to shake hands with Donny.
- While in a cabinet meeting with all his creepy, brainless minions and his hubby, Musk, in attendance.

Thus his nickname Moscow mitch

More likely: Russia loses, America loses, everyone loses
Except Canada. I'm betting they come out ahead cause they've been nice to everyone.
- sorry, eh.
- I fear Canada will be the USA and Russia's punching bag when they both get frustrated with how things are going.
- Mr. Rogers would approve.

Trying to imagine a world where Mcturtle would have whipped the vote to indict that piece of shit donvict and throw him in prison where he fucking belongs.
Justice would have been done. Would that have torched Mcturtle's career and possibly put him in the line of fire for all the murderous magabrained dumbasses out there wanting to get revenge for their god-emperor being dealt with properly?
Yes. But still. He should have done everything possible to get donvict behind bars.

Like if he's not at fault.
Fuck off shit head.

If only you had fucking done something about it instead of going on a power trip. This is literally your fault.

He should bud dwyer himself

YOU ENABLED THIS, ASSHOLE.

Fuck off fuckface

"Mumble mumble mumble, turtle turtle, empty political statement...om-nom, good samwidge..."
NO, motherfucker, this is not a game anymore! Get the fuck out of the way, because we need some people DOING things around here! Trump isn't killing the United States, it's the lack of opposition. These old-money-party Democrats are fiddling around while Rome burns.
- McConnell is a retiring Republican senator, but I get your point.

Fuck you, Bitch McConnell. The Russians already have a stooge in the White House and you're to blame for this whole fucking mess existing in the first place. Go rot in hell with Reagan you fucking asshole.

Thanks Glitch. I’ll consider your moment of clarity while I piss on your grave.
To those not keeping score, this man may have single-handedly caused more damage to our institution than anyone else, alive or dead. It’s more than coincidence that his actions are in perfect alignment with the kremlin. We are now in a tail-spin of destabilization that greatly benefits putin. Funny how that all worked out, neh?

McConnell in the 8th inning: "hey, wait a minute...!"
- Bottom of the ninth.

Let's hope they both lose.
Fuck the US and fuck Russia

It's clear to me now that Polio actually contracted Mitch McConnell

GET FUCKED UP THE ASS WITH RUSTY BARBED WIRE YOU TRAITOROUS FUCKING CUNT

I hope people shit on his grave when he kicks the bucket finally!
