Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday urged President Biden "not to outsource" his nominee to succeed Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer "to the radical left."
What he's saying: "Looking ahead the American people elected a Senate that is evenly split at 50-50. To the degree that President Biden received a mandate, it was to govern from the middle, steward our institutions, and unite America," McConnell said in a statement.

Of course.
The nonsense is that there's a huge gulf between the liberal Democrats who make up the vast majority of our 80M voters, and our entire leadership, and the mercifully far smaller fringe of ANTI- liberal, anti-establishment LW radicals and populists referred to by McConnell. The kind who envy the trumpists' progress toward stealing Democratic elections, some of whom have joined them to make it happen.
