For sure. It’s not exclusive to Mitch.

But Mitch was the architect.

He’s the reason the far right got 4 SCOTUS picks, instead of the 2 they should have if they played “fair”.

Mitch also was the architect for filling all the judicial vacancies in the federal courts with other far right partisan judges.

He’s also the architect for the current state of the GOP, and was responsible for most of the Government shutdowns in the last 20 years. Him lamenting this potential shutdown is laughable, to put it mildly.

He’s been doing this since at least 2010 when the GOP shifted their strategy away from advancing their democratic platform, and instead winning by fuckery like gerrymandering, blocking all bills in the Senate (as he was the majority leader for around a decade) that might advance the Democrat roadmap/agenda, and then immediately turning around and blaming democrats for the bill his party just blocked.

Mitch is the reason why the GOP is kept in line today.

His departure from politics, forced or otherwise, will have a huge impact on the GOP. There isn’t another person in their group that can hold all the different groups together and keep them focused on making democrats appear to look bad, like Mitch.

As much as I hate the guy (and boy, do I), he’s a masterful politician. I mean that as the damning insult it’s meant to be.

Mitch is the reason we have a partisan, hack, SCOTUS.

Obligatory: Doesn’t fucking matter, go vote.

Fuck Larry Ellison.

Now he’s going for super-villainy against people who’ve never even heard of Oracle.

Those two things are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

Giving habitually violent repeat offenders more reasons to be violent is always an issue.

Manson didn’t go to jail for murdering anyone. Manson went to jail because he conspired and convinced other people to murder for him.

I’m not entirely sure he doesn’t stew on this.

Hitler, famously, obsessed over negative news coverage/press about him. Even to the point where he threatened violence/war with New York if they didn’t redact a column about him being a wannabe dictator.

Trump is the same kind of narcissist Hitler was, and gets similarly obsessed with negative press about him.

I agree that I doubt he’s reflecting on this, but he’s absolutely aware the rest of the world thinks he screwed up and that’s why he thinks they’re lying. Because everyone else around him says he won, so how could, literally every news agency, including Fox Entertainment “news”, say Kamala beat him?

But he is absolutely pissed and stewing in his own piss right now at all the negative coverage after his debate performance.

Right, they gray area is so small, it’s practically just a blend line for the huge expanse of black and white on the table for this election.

Which, let’s also be clear; they are not involved in any way.

I agree with you, but that’s not what happened here.

You don’t want the state to get used to committing extreme violence with their citizens.

Being motivated doesn’t change 300 year old bullshit laws that remove the democratic power of of all but a handful of swing states voting.

There’s roughly half of congress that is on the same side as her traitorous piece of shit ass.

You should read up on the whole ordeal. The article is failing to summarize the lengthy legal battle that’s been happening between them for years since Musk’s takeover.

What a fucking weird thing to say.

Til, thank you

Wait, what happened with Gillette? How the fuck do you pick a fight with a company that literally sells razor blades and not expect to get cut?

Third generation draft dodger.

His grandfather escaped Germany so he didn’t get drafted for WWI.

All in the family.

TIL, thank you, this rule always bugged me to remember.

He’s a stand up guy when it matters, even if I disagree with his policies.
