  1. Mitch will forever be a stain in the American political system.

  2. McConnell voted AGAINST the infrastructure bill that president BIDEN got passed. It's McConnell's fault for where the United States is today for McConnell not directing his caucus to vote to REMOVE trump in the Senate after his FIRST impeachment for attempting to BRIBE president Zelenski of Ukraine by withholding congressional appropriated funds, which was a CRIME!!

  3. NEVER FORGET JANUARY 6TH AND SEPTEMBER 11TH 😪 🫂 ❤️‍🔥 🇺🇸 . VOTE BLUE 🌎 🇺🇸

  4. You waited 20 years too long, and we've been sick of you for the last 6 years

  5. With this talent, Biden could have helped Dems in 2020.

  6. 😮😮 MITCH IS SO TWO FACE….
    MITCH SPEAKS WITH FORK TONGUE..😮😮

  7. Rino goes the way of ghe dinosaur

  8. Thank God. He managed insermountable damage to the state of Kentucky..

  9. We need term limits he did so much damage to our country

  10. Yes when you speak and dust comes out of your mouth,😂😂 it's time to step down.

  11. He thinks he is a hero to America, when he only betrayed us all.

  12. I'm so sad that Mitches legacy will go down as a contributing person to voter fraud, an insurrection against our country and possibly cover up on stolen secret documents and treason😳 He had the opportunity to clear himself and put trump in prison for all his crimes but instead he bend knee to trader trump. He will be rembered for his bad choice these last 4 year for the rest of his life. All the good he did will not be important because the wrong was so damaging. Its assumed but it was his choice and he made the wrong one.

  13. Yeah well as far as I'm concerned and from what I understand nobody in the state of Kentucky ever cared for him to begin with unless you're lame like him so well hopefully we'll get somebody in there good that actually cares for that state

  14. A legend in his own mind.

  15. He's still going to die in office cause he thinks he's valuable.

  16. Thank GOD. This Rino Is Leaving. ! He’s So Crooked You Can Just See It. !

  17. You ran out of time my friend. Reaper is coming

  18. The dude is 82, next chapter is most like his passing. I don’t get why these people work for so long.

  19. Kentucky don’t want you anymore!

  20. Yes sir it does come a time to move onto the next phase in your life!

  21. Yeeeee. Retire, Retire, Retire.

  22. He's like a captain going down with his ship of fools.

  23. 10 years too late! And Biden is 20 years too late retiring
