He feels entitled to dictate to the winners how the spoils will be divided.
He feels entitled to scoff at the suggestions of his commander-in-chief, the dually elected leader of the country to which McConnell has sworn his allegiance. His behavior borders on treason. He could not be trusted in a fight.
He is a loser who acts as if he has the power or right to thwart the will of the majority.
I would say it is time for McConnell and others of his ilk to get their comeuppance.
