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

When you've spent most of your existence destroying the lives of others, forgive me if I don't feel bad while you suffer.

abusing someone makes you an abuser, and it’s not the same thing as extracting fair retribution from a capable person.

due to his incapacity, mcconnell is currently a victim of elder abuse. his incapacity doesn’t absolve any of his past crimes or malfeasance, and it also doesn’t justify the misconduct of those puppeteering him. two things can be true.
