McConnell’s health scare puts focus on shadow race to replace him - Lemmy.world

Don’t worry, they’ll find an asshole to replace him. It is way easier than to find a non-asshole in that party, anyway.

Might be hard to find another asshole who’s as ruthless about loopholes and dirty tricks. I’d say there’s a 90% chance that replacing him weakens the republicans.
