1. As Sen. Mitch McConnell, the longest-serving U.S. Senate party leader in history, announces he will step down from his leadership role at the end of this year, revisit FRONTLINE's 2023 examination of his lengthy career, his relationship with Trump, and how his shrewd choices reshaped the Supreme Court and U.S. politics.

2. Thanks to him! Imagine garland in the supreme court!

3. TURTLE MC.CONEL IS THE AXIS OF E.V.I.L

4. Moscow Mitch…guess seeing him on his knees kissing tRumps ring was karma

5. What was unprecedented is the dems allowed him to do it. They don’t give a shit as long as one of two of them stay in office.

6. Hypocritical SOB– Moscow Mitch. Glad he lived long enough to see at least the beginnings of the total destruction of the Republican party. With the outing of the right wing religious extremists, racists, and other RNC vermin crawling out of the woodwork, this election should be an ELE (Extinction Level Event) for the Repugs. However, just found out the CEO's of ALL the major "news" media are Trump donors. That explains the feeding frenzy on President BIden, while they ignore the shocking idiocy of Trump's blather. Funny how these creatures who think they are smarter than everyone else haven't figured out that a dictator has no use for "news" media, only propaganda outlets. I guess they are willing to sell their birthrights (and ours) for a mess of pottage.

7. That turtle packed the court with alt. Right religious nuts. And now we as Americans are losing rights. I just hope the GOP becomes irrelevant soon, there already the loud minority

8. We could have 4 progressives, 4 conservatives and 1 centrist in the Supreme Court if not for McConnell. So disgusting.

9. He exposed his own hypocrisy 4 years later. How anyone can still believe the reason he gave and defend this guy is unbelievable.

10. Being a supreme court justice is definitely not for me. Can anyone imagine if the US President Republican or Democrat selected me to become the next supreme court justice? If it did happen, well hopefully the confirmation hearings will be peaceful and civilized and hopefully Senators on both sides will hopefully treat me with kindness and respect.

11. Even tho McConnell isnt a true conservative he helped place 3 new Justices for America

    The USA would be a police state with Garland on the court.

12. That was the wrong move USA made???

13. He has crazy what people call power? His a man that thinks he's a power nobody has power before the government?

14. Bad bad bad

15. Tweedism was inspired by a statement attributed to American politician William M. Tweed who said: “I don’t care who does the electing, as long as I get to do the nominating”

16. he failed to use power to improve society.

17. The Dems put all their faith into the court system and had used it to defeat conservatives. Now what. Bork got Borked and we got 3 seats in 4 years. 😉

18. It was revenge for Robert Bork…
    and a lot of other things.
    And there was nothing that Biden or Pelosi could do about it.
    Bork was appointed by Reagan and Biden shut him down.
    And his administration had to sit still and take it.
    It was between the Democrats and McConnell, it was real greaseball shit.

19. expand the court

20. Love Mitch McConnell ,the politicians politician😁

21. And his hypocrisy cost his party so much

22. McConnell is a prick!

23. Please, Senator Mitch McConnell and Congress, ensure that Trump can no longer run for public office ever again.

24. Is that Jerry Seinfeld's mom? Say "you were necking…during…Schindler's List?"

25. Mitch is the reason why you have a republican party today .. he did so much to the party and he never gets any credit for it in the media …. this guy secured the court for at least 10 years .. kinda your guy that works behind the scenes.

26. "You don't wanna mess with old McConnell." And that's coming from a former colleague who is 11 years older than him.

27. Pudding face POS.

28. Way I see this is you need someone ruthless to fight ruthless people and Mitch is that Donald Trump just allowed him to fully unleash it.🤷‍♂️ Its the truth and if course there will be those that hate it.

29. He's pure evil

30. Love it love it how u play the game Mitch 😃

31. Investigate money bribes from Republicans.

32. In Mitch we trust

33. A lesson in the long game. The day to day drivel and chatter is a distraction. Eye on the prize.

34. Cocaine Mitch, he knows how to play the long game. I am happy he is on our side lol

35. The video should be entitled, "Borking, Billion $ Biden"

36. And still the ppl don't get it. OUR PRISONS ARE FULL. Why would we believe the courts have been too liberal? Duh, it ain't rocket science? Why would we think a judge siding with corporations over workers is good for the country? Why would we as a ppl not think we deserve healthcare? THINK!

37. OMG, what in the hell is happening? These ppl act as if this bully bullshit corrupt turtle is ok in what he does? Can someone with balls, get behind Sen Whitehouse to shut this corruption down?!

38. Merrick Garland was treated terrible, and McConnell laughs. Prick!

39. Bork was radical! And half nuts!

40. Absolute genius

41. Ah shit, here we go again.

42. Who's here after Ginsburg's died

43. Since we’re mere weeks away from this years’ presidential election, Mitch had better not even think of contemplating a vote on a nominee until AFTER the election.

44. god this is infuriating. Moscow Mitch should be in a jail cell

45. While the Left screams about Trump 24/7, Mitch continues to stack the courts with his handpicked, lifetime judges. The Left has no substance or focus, only feelings. Otherwise, they would run stronger candidates against Mitch.

46. I think its funny that Obama was so certain that theyd block whoever he picked that he picked someone conservative and qualified, just to make the senate look like idiots when they blocked him.

47. I dont think theres anyone…even Bin Laden who has done as much damage to America than Mitch McConnell

48. I'm drowning in lefty tears
