If only Mitch had done this twenty years ago

 Interesting article. We learn that Mitch McConnell is leaving Congress at the end of his term. The tragedy is that if he had done this earlier, before Trump, he would have exited with a modicum of dignity. He would have been seen as a controversial but effective conservative legislator. As it is, he goes as a sad and pathetic figure who, like von Papen and Victor Emmanuel, aided the forces of absolute evil in the deluded belief that he could control them.
