Mitch McConnell

The once and never again Senate Majority Leader and current Minority Leader. He is also chief elected lackey in service of the Federalist Society. McConnell will be best remembered for his blantant hipocrisy in denying Merrick Garland a SCOTUS confirmation hearing, then ramming through three extreme ideologues as SCOTUS justices, destroying the credibility of the Court.
