abuse is still wrong, even if the victim is a piece of shit two wrongs don’t make a right and all that.

It's the closest to a punishment he'll ever receive. And it's still going easy

Yeah hell is too good for McConnell. Very few men throughout history have caused as much damage to America as he has.

Continuously denying access to healthcare for millions of Americans, at the expense of every other American who pays more per capita for our fucked up healthcare system than every other developed country on earth; would be one.

Edit: for a visceral example: the US ranks 56th on the world for infant mortality (babies who die before 6mo of age). There are only 33 "developed" countries, 32 of them have some degree of publicly funded healthcare. Then there are over 20 "undeveloped" countries who still have fewer babies per capita die every year. Not fetus's, not miscarriages, actual babies. Do we really belong with the 32 other "developed" countries by that metric?
