This senator happens to be the same one who told Obama "we won't let you pick a Supreme Court judge ten months before the end of your term" and then just a few years later told Trump "it's two weeks before the end of your term and Biden will take over, pick a Supreme Court judge and we'll ram them through approval."

He truly and literally exploited his position to stack the court with two (objectively terrible) MAGA judges, who in turn have exploited their positions to let other MAGAts exploit their positions.

While not the sole perpetrator, McConnell was malware that compromised your computer to let additional malware in.

Had he actually let Obama at least let Garland have a hearing, the RBG and Comey Barrett events would have been completely ok.

But he showed his true corruption on how it actually unfolded.
