McConnell says we will have an "orderly" transition...

He needs to crawl from under his shell and open his eyes. The transition is supposed to be happening right now.

It is not "orderly". It is non-existent. McConnell is unconscious.

It would have started a week ago.

The fact that anyone needs to say « will have » instead of « are having » means that Moscow Mitch is lying through his teeth.

Part of the reason McConnell is so infuriating is that he is very good at what he does. He plays the political game very well, and knows when to gamble and when to play it safe.

He is saying we will have an orderly transition, this is a subtle refutation and undermining of Trump's efforts to steal the election.

He would never come out and directly condemn the delays or denounce Trump's tactics, he knows the Republican base far too well to do that. This is about the furthest he can go in support of Biden's win without becoming a target of the Right's tantrum.

to sniff out the shenanigans in Kentucky. It is nearly impossible to believe that time after time the majority votes for this shyster.

Kentucky rankings:


* Healthcare #44

* Education #38

* Economy #39

* Fiscal stability #45

Kentucky has a whole lot of room for improvement.

towards him about the matter. Meanwhile he's doing everything to appease this SOB, let him act out and cause tremendous damage to this democracy for the remainder of this lame duck period. Moscow Mitch is a dangerous enabler.

Right before saying they would transition into a second term.
I wouldn't out it past this slimeball to have just left off that part of the sentence he was thinking.
