- Wowfunhappy 6y agoI think the GP's point is that since it's an election year, "Mitch" will eventually give in. Mitch McConnell is many things, but I wouldn't count "stupidity" among them. And although his personal seat is quite safe, he clearly wants his party to stay in power. I'm actually more concerned about what happens if Biden wins in November, and the Republicans feel incentivized to let the economy crash and burn.
