Mitch McConnell is actually the best Metaphor for, and representation of, America and our political system. He spent almost a century making the world a better place for only himself and his friends, married an immigrant while working tirelessly against other immigrants, manipulated the system to increase his power only to be usurped & made impotent by someone even more unethical, unscrupulous and power hungry. Then when the system is finally done with him, they keep his dead body on life support just to use him for one more power move until finally allowing him sweet sweet death while his wife flees the country and his children go into hiding. And when it's all said and done, he'll be best remembered for a meme that made him into a turtle. America.

"I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky.”

[i bless the rains down in castamere @Chinchillazllla]

there actually is a chance that, rather than lying to us, all these GOP morons have in fact been bamboozled by a staffer using an AI rendering of Mitch McConnell's voice. which is what I'm hoping for because it's way funnier.

“Gimme a Tea Party”
“Ogey”
“But hold the populism”
“Hold the populism?”
“And hold the rapist”
“Hold the rapists? Hey Jimmy, gimme a Tea Party with nothin’!”

[A-100 gecs @PinstripeBungle]

the thing that unsettled me about Platner- and unsettles me about a lot of post-2016 socdem politics- is there was never a real theory of change or a plan. there was never a why. a political stance as a set of positions and not a way of approaching the world.
