...if Republicans hold the Senate.
Make him lay out his case for everything he tries to block, under direct and hard questioning, instead of behind doors or in self-serving public statements.
Bring the dirtiness of his value-free, anything-for-power craven politics out into the sunlight.

I have no idea if that applies to video, but hidden camera would be a great way to sandbag McConnell and show him for the disingenuous fuck he is. Joe wont do this, but I can dream...

(17,317 posts)He ran to twitter all day long keeping his voters informed(mostly of BS). When Moscow Mitch starts
blocking legislation this country needs, Joe/Kamala need to get on national TV (not twitter) and
point fingers at McTurtle how he's hurting the American people. And keep the pressure on him and
never let up, sooner or later repug voters will start getting on his @ss.

(11,522 posts)Invite Moscow Mitch to a public discussion to explain his side of an issue to let voters see why we can't fix healthcare, why we can't beef up election security, etc.
Of course there's a bit of risk with this since McConnell is very skilled at lying, but I think Biden is fully capable of dealing with him.
And if McTurtle refuses we get all over TV and explain to America why things aren't getting done.
