So are you trying to compare blocking legislation out of spite to the Senate Majority leader saying the Republican goal is to win the presidency back?

🤡

are you really going to sit there and pretend that McConnell's goal as "grim reaper" to deny the democrats anything they can say is a "win" regardless of whether the underlying policy is better for the nation?

McConnell, the guy who sat on a supreme court nominee put forth by a duly elected US president for a year so that a Democrat couldn't fill the seat?

is this really the guy right-leaning people want to defend?

wasn't my meme.. but any meme with McConnell carries the weight of his record, does it not?

more than any other politician in recent memory McConnell embodies all that is wrong with partisan politics.

look at the context.

greend posts a twitter screenshot calling democrats "grotesque" because a NJ congresswoman expressed this:

Quote

"When I go, you know, I've gone up to people and said, ‘I need to get this piece of legislation passed,' and they say ‘Oh yeah, we just passed it,'" Sherrill said. "I said, ‘Yeah, we just passed it. I need the Senate to pass it and I need the president to sign it,' and they said ‘Well, we don't want to give the president a win.'"

the McConnell quote was posted in response. McConnell is famous for sitting on any democratic legislation. he calls himself the Grim Reaper of Democratic legislation. he doesn't even look at it.

what's funny about this is that the very source of the original "grotesque" quote made the exact same comparison:

Quote

Sherrill's comments contrast with Democrats' longstanding criticism of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) for blocking Democratic initiatives in the Senate. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) unveiled a visual representation of McConnell's "legislative graveyard" in June, accusing the Kentucky Republican of blocking legislation for political gain.

"Leader McConnell seems to take great pride in calling himself ‘The Grim Reaper.' It's part of his political campaign, it's part of the pride he takes as leader of the Senate," Pelosi said. "The Senate will certainly be hearing from the public on issues, values really, that have bipartisan support across America."

and the Free Beacon is a VERY right-wing source, FWIW.
