I recognize Mitch McConnell as the #1 Republican figure in American politics.
Perhaps that will happen, Classic. Perhaps not. Some pundits say that your half is catering to white men and white reactionaries, appealing to the extreme wing of which you are a member, instead of pursuing and persuading latino, black, women, asian and other voters from the middle or the other side-- even deceiving them with trickle-down neoliberal rhetoric that can be very tempting. They say in the long run that's a losing strategy in a nation in which white men are becoming the minority. Fear of being "replaced," even by Jews, the white, phony-christian minority is using whatever means they can to secure minority control, through gerrymandering, hacking elections, replacing election officials with party hacks, restricting the vote, threatening and intimidating voters and election officials like me; whatever they can do. In the short run it may work, but in the long run it may not. Trump, not McConnell, is the leader of this extreme but dominant wing of the Republicon Party, and that's why Democrats and government officials go after him. The only way to stop him may be to put him on trial and in jail, where he belongs.
