let me see if i got his right

All legislation in the U.S. must be approved by one 78-year-old man in Kentucky, A state with less than 1/2 the population os Los Angeles county, who was chosen by just slightly more than half the members of a legislative body where 12% of the U.S. population gets to elect 60% of the seats

Its well past the time to tear down the system and rebuild it

I'm sick of everyone trying to say this is all on McConnell. He only has the power his caucus gives him. Everyone is completely ignoring that this only happens if Republicans WANT it to happen. Stop trying to put all this on McConnell and quit giving every other Republican a free pass.
