    I don’t think we’ll get someone that’s both as evil AND as effective as him.

    What has made him the big bad for so long is that he’s really good at what he does. He’s a perfect mixture of professional competence and evil. Trump is a cartoon villain, but what enabled Trump was the terrible machine that Mitch built.

    I don’t know if the US has ever had a politician who has had a more harmful impact. Without Mitch we’d be in a much better place even if the GOP held all branches of government.
