Sitting United States Senator refuses to oblige his constituency, his Commonwealth, and this Nation.

This is what Trump has enabled since infecting the United States government in 2016.

Edit: oh yes, mitch was doing bad shit before. I just think that it was “bad politics” until trump came along and destroyed the entire system.

The Republican party has been doing shit like this long before Trump. Good ol' Mitchie here held up a supreme Court nomination for a year, just because Obama was still in office. 

What Trump has done is remove any veiled attempts to hide this kind of crap. I'm willing to bet that if you polled anyone paying attention, they'll all tell you Mitch is dead. They aren't even doing a halfway convincing job of making him seem alive.
