Not soon enough, however, in November- - - -according to Faux Noose. Too bad one of his freeze-ups didn't last a few years, instead of minutes!

They will probably vote in someone just as worthless to replace him.

Stepping down from minority leader.

Not getting out of the senate, unfortunately, though I don't expect that he's going to run next time.

He's going to hang on until 2027, unbelievable. What a greedy old crow. So, do we get stuck with John Cornyn or Thune to continue the abuse of our republic???

https://www.zerohedge.com/political...ate-leader-us-history-step-down-november

Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who turned 82 last week and has suffered multiple public 'glitches,' will step down from his Senate leadership position in November after maintaining power for almost two decades as the longest-serving Senate leader in US history.

McConnell was set to announce his decision on Wednesday in the well of the Senate, AP reports.

"One of life’s most underappreciated talents is to know when it’s time to move on to life’s next chapter," he said in prepared remarks seen by the outlet. "So I stand before you today ... to say that this will be my last term as Republican leader of the Senate."

While he'll no longer be leader, McConnell will serve out his Senate term, which ends in January 2027, "albeit from a different seat in the chamber."

"As I have been thinking about when I would deliver some news to the Senate, I always imagined a moment when I had total clarity and peace about the sunset of my work," the prepared remarks continue. "A moment when I am certain I have helped preserve the ideals I so strongly believe. It arrived today."

It also arrived, as noted above, after two major health scares and his party shifting towards anti-war populism ushered in by President Trump.

I wouldn't mind if his counterpart in KY took the position.

Personally I hope he doesn't live that long. Same with Chuckie Jewmer, and a host of the other DemocRAT Leadership teams.

Worse, much worse, Senator Thune (SD) has been groomed to take over McConnells spot as head RINO.

He will make McConnell look like a MAGA leader.

Be careful what you wish for.

Jeff Flake, Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, Ronna McDaniel, Kevin McCarthy, Lis Cheney…who am I missing?

Trump said he would drain the swamp, it’s getting there.

Notice he is sticking around until November.

He needs to stay in control of the GOP Apparatus through this election cycle to make sure that no MAGA Candidates get elected and that includes Trump.

THE WRONG KIND OF REPUBLICANS.
Mitch McConnell

He is getting out now because he knows Trump will have him ousted as soon as he gets back in office!

Sticking around until November, If he lives that long! That walking fossil is not buying any green bananas for the obvious reason. Age limits for all elected Government office positions is a must. Recent history has proven that the rule is needed to many times.
