Who will be "remembered" as this era in US politics looking back? I know one is the President and Presidents define the time .......but McConnell now is looking like he went from win to win........blocked judges, pushed judges, blocked legislation, blocked witnesses (maybe) in the impeachment etc.
I mean you could make a case for him........so vote away......

Sorry, but who is McConnell? Sorry cherry - US Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell: I'm afraid he isn't well known outside the US... So basically I replied the question.

Trump, although McConnell should be in terms of overall influence.

Do people think of the 80s as the Reagan Era or the Jesse Helms Era?

It's interesting that a lot of the argument about no witnesses has now been how McConnell will get one Republican senator to switch to a "no witnesses" vote and therefore avoid Justice Roberts being in any sort of "decision" entirely.
That's how powerful he really is, he can can get a senator to take the heat rather than a judge since he cares so much about long-term judge placement too - that's really the difference between him and Helms. I mean Helms was never a Majority/Minority leader and we never had a President who needed a McConnell more - ie no political office ever in his background etc. like Trump.......

McConnell doesn't have the name-recognition but he did accomplish many of his goals

Just sayin' this was an unusually good poll 9 months ago - I really love the pacinoyes polls ( ) . The poll is closed now but look back on it when it was posted........now it's extremely likely Trump is a 1 term President and that the Party distances itself from him a whole lot. Not necessarily likely (though possible) that McConnell won't still be Senate Majority Leader extending his Satanic reign...........1/3 of the Supreme Court is a Trump-McConnell Court.....blocked Merrick Garland ...........broke no laws himself (nor subverted the Constitution, just sayin') to do it......no legal stain on his record.........shepherded the appointment of hundreds of Non-SCOTUS Federal judges. I mean Trump is a historic figure in a lot of ways (several ugly yes) but I'm not sure this poll doesn't really go in Mitch's favor tbh.....especially as of now.....

This is actually the McConnell era, but it will be remembered as the Trump era as he's the most visible target. After all, Goebbels doesn't have the name recognition of Hitler.

Sorry, but who is McConnell? Excellent question, none knows who McConnell really is. McConnell is just totally underated. People excepts the ones from his states, has no clue who he is. Maybe just another old Senator, a step closer to Jesus than for earth. And this is a left press guilt. They lobbied in favour of overated Nancy Pelosi, who has Zero Goals as the Lower House President!!! McConnell is invisible for CNN, unless he is an stupid old man or an evil dinosaur. He will be remembered as a guru/Jesus for upcomings Republicans Senators.- Don't give me wrong, despite he is totally underated, without any doubt this is Trump era.

Is moral atrotious and evil compare McConnell with Goebbels or Hitler with Trump.- Joseph Goebbels was not only a genocide freaking nazi, he and his wife killed their own children.- Maybe Hitler's is more "popular" than Goebbels, but Magda Gaobbels is much more infamous than Eva Braun.
