The incredible ability to ignore the 'too many to count' wrongs of Trump and at the same elicit such pettiness to Biden is astounding and now makes clear how much America is fucked and those very same folks are happy with it because they know they can't hope to get this much power again.

I want to get the logic of McConnell. The filibuster was created in the 1950s so southern senators can kill or delay civil rights legislation. Okay, so it has a bad origin. McConnell himself halted it to get around Democrats under Obama's administration. Hmm....okay. Prior to the Obama administration, the filibuster was done on average once a year. But was done 81 times under Obama. Okay. So, McConnell is saying Dems are not being bipartisan but he told Obama and bragged about it that he would not work with him on anything and he went on to delay or obstruct everything Obama tried. He's lied repeatedly and broken his honor (no Justice in an election year but gave Trump a justice in record time during an election he lost). 

Hmmm....Coss or anyone else, I'm looking to be convinced Moscow McConnell should be supported but I can't apply logic to it. Need some help on this one.
