I feel the same way about McConnell, too. And he didn't just start with Trump taking power, and unfortunately he isn't finished yet...with a small miracle perhaps Georgia will flip those two senate seats and take him out of his perch but I'm not holding my breath on that one... where Donald knows he's finished and is milking the supporters for everything they'll offer, McConnell clings to his power in the senate and will do anything he can to retain it.
Both evil pieces of human garbage imo, but I also think McConnell is doing more long-term damage.
The Republican Party is a party of fear, fear that those who feel entitled to have will have that entitlement challenged. They are motivated by the notion that gratification is scarce and only for the worthy and that is because the are inwardly driven by the unconscious presence of the feeling they are unworthy coupled with an inculcated false notion of what it means to be worthy. These will be our most superficial, hiding inadequacy behind worshiping all the different flavors of Mammon, ostentatiousness, fame, glamour, etc.
This fear of unmasking and exposure of inner failure will creat the greatest neediness among our people to seek and command control. They will be the first to fall victim to rationalization, the sense that they deserve to control. They will be our worshipers of authoritarian control. The enemy of the day will be democracy and socialism, the desire for equality. To a conservative mind, democracy and equality are like asking a starving person to share bread. To them other people are a threat and evil. They are inwardly empty and can’t be filled.
