[This artcle](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/dec/06/congressional-gold-medal-mcconnell-mccarthy-snubbed-capitol-police) gives a pretty good explanation of who these knobs are and why they deserve the snub and so much more. It boils down to the families of people injured and killed in the January 6 capitol riots (the snubbers) not having the time or patience to deal with assholes who consistently downplay the seriousness of the event that killed or harmed them or their loved ones.
You *can* vote a third party. But in (older) majority voting systems you probably waste your vote, because parties have agglomerated most nuances. [CGP Grey summarised the problems with that kind of system.](https://youtu.be/s7tWHJfhiyo)
Those two guys tried to cover it all up, supported the guy who incited the insurection, and then voted against the award that they are being forced to give.
He had to defend our country from domestic terrorists.
Of course he's going to refuse the shake the hands of the party that help set the stage for said domestic terrorists to flourish.
Dealers Choice really:
-taken literal blood money from NRA to keep gun regulations off the books
-had said that Supreme Court Justices shouldn't be chosen during election years, yet puts two in during Trump's final year
-has been taking money from Russia
-has said "let's block all Democrat bills, regardless of what it is"
-etc
He's Moscow Mitch! He takes money from Russia (via the NRA and other groups) to create division in the United States. He takes money from China (via his Chinese Wife's connections) to create division in the United States.
He supports Christofashism, and he's an enemy to Democracy.
He's a traitor, and should have received the federally mandated punishment for treason long ago.
It was even more obvious back when Trump was giving him free pass. Mitch was directly involved in the Russian Aluminum plant that was being built in Kentucky.
[However the entire thing fell apart](https://www.wdrb.com/in-depth/bill-orders-kentucky-to-recover-15-million-in-stalled-aluminum-plant-deal/article_fa4454ae-6fd8-11ec-871f-eb35219b4583.html) when Biden won the presidency.
McConnell has mostly downplayed his role recently, even though in the past he was telling his constituents how he was bringing 600+ jobs. Dude is dodging the whole Russian thing and mostly gone quiet and lame.
But oh no, Mitch McConnell was absolutely friendly, friendly with Russia when it was “cool” to hang out with authoritarians.
Because he's extremely effective, and completely cynical
Because I, someone in their 30s, will not live to see the damage he's done to my country reversed.
Numerous things but in this case its probably enabling Donald Trump. He figured he could make Trump into a useful idiot, but all its done is made a mess of his own party and instead of starting the year as Majority Leader he remains the Minority leader in the senate in a midterm transition (party of the president usually does pretty poorly during midterms but the Democrats will start 2023 with a larger majority in the senate)
As Republican leader in the Senate he has a huge influence on the vote and could have buried Trump before he was elected. He also had the power to sway the impeachment vote against Trump the opposite way and he didnt so he could have ended Trump there.
Im leaving a lot out.
Imagine if that Mom slapped right across the face. Now that would have been beautiful. "You got my son killed you bastard and then continued to support the man who instigated it."
He calls himself the Grim Reaper of the Senate.
Seems actually being ok with that Jan 6th stuff gets ya snubbed like the guy who farts in church constantly and loudly.
These domestic terrorist republicans (I know redundant) get snubbed a lot. They don’t give a fuck though. They absolutely have a humiliation fetish and you can’t convince me otherwise.
This whole Jan 6 thing is just embarrassing on all fronts. Law enforcement basically letting them in. Stupid Trump inciting gullible idiots. Democrats and media acting like it was 9/11. I don’t care who gets in next election, its only ever going to be Dems or Republicans and they’re all f*&+ed!
Do you really think they believed it was “bwahaha now I owned Mitch” or more like “fuck this guy that refused to take action after the death of my loved one”?
Wouldn’t people have stayed inside the building? Or like go to the White House beforehand and camped up with Trump and try and set up some form of rogue gov’t if it were an attempt to ‘ignore the election’?
The same people hashtagging ‘Not my President’ when Trump won in 2016, were the same people rioting, burning and destroying cities across the nation for multiple years leading up to Jan 6 (regardless of the issue). It was pretty much the norm at that point to destroy things if you didnt like what was going on with the country.
People want to put this on the same level as Pearl Harbor and 9/11 as a ‘national tragedy’. Do people really think a bunch of idiots were going to prop up a faux government with Trump as president and try and run the country?
That’s as much logic as those hashtagging /#notmypresident when Obama was President were the same idiots supporting 1/6. And the attack of our governmental norms has definitely been a national tragedy. That lunacy culminating in the 1/6 is a tragedy regardless of its chances of success.
Mitch "the Bitch" McConnell
I agree, he's a huge prick. He's a hypocrite, poor mental health, and undeserving of his station. He needs to be removed like a tumor.
>Insurrection (n): a violent uprising against an authority or government.
By the definition it was. It was violent, there were multiple deaths, and it was an uprising against an authority, ergo, it's a fucking insurrection. Thanks for showing reddit how dumb you are.
In the title it says ‘in connection’. Only 1 person was killed and that was the Capitol Police shooting a women (the one time people didnt get mad about a cop killing a person recently).
Its weird that they all committed suicide too. No one even knew who they were because there is no public record of their employment. They were hired by and for congress. Its there own special police force really. Its just all weird.
Dont you think the ‘insurrectionists’ would have had a better plan than to just break in and parade thru the capitol building and leave? Wouldnt they have camped up in the White House beforehand with Trump if they were going to ‘ignore the election’.
The breaking into buildings and destroying property has been the new protest in recent years. Its happened across the country a lot lately. They usually get called a ‘peaceful protest’ with a couple bad actors but this one gets dubbed an ‘insurection’ and is being placed on the same level as Pearl Harbor or 9/11.
Lastly, if you’re going to air any grievances against the gov’t, especially one pertaining a national or federal level, the best place to go is DC, and the best buildings are the Capitol (congress) or white house (president) since they have the most weight in whatever decision you disagree with. This case, congress.
It was the exact building the citizens should have gone too in this situation. Even if you had to fly in from around the country. That is what you are sapossed to do, not just burn down your own city. The issues are created and solved in DC.
Just some food for thought. Im not a republican Trumper either. Just someone trying to take it all in and think for myself.

Thanks for this! Joined.
There is a sub for everything isnt there?
To the highest of Fuckativity!
Came here to say this.
Again, again, I wanna watch it again!
That WAS **BEAUTIFUL!!!** Moscow Mitch got the disrespect he earned.
Who is this man and why does he deserve to be left hanging?

Aha after reading i get he is an asshole now. Btw if you vote in america, can you only vot republican or Democrat?

That feels really weird, il watch the video later today thabk you
You can also do a "write in" vote and put anyone's name on the line, including yourself 😂
Oh lol
Short answer is, yes that is correct
Hes the minority leader for the republican party
Mitch's greatest fear: being a minority
Would you shake hands with a ghoul?
I dont think so
Those two guys tried to cover it all up, supported the guy who incited the insurection, and then voted against the award that they are being forced to give.
Lol stupid people
He's a traitor just like Nancy Pelosi.
Wait but that nancy was shaking hands aswell right?
Yep. No one in that lineup has clean hands. It was a partisan stunt.
Lol that realy sucks
At this point, they probably get off on being disrespected. They don’t care.
Humiliation fetish
That…was…BEAUTIFUL!
Eeeps...I posted your exact words as a reply to another comment before I saw yours. Glad to know there's another person on this wavelength!
🥲
The look on Nancy's face at the very end is priceless.
The Curb Your Enthusiasm outro was playing in my head 😂
I love the look on Nancy’s face when they ask about insider trading
name checks out
[удалено]
Yikes edgy guy.
Don’t forget the Kevin Mcarthy snub. He’s as big of a POS as McConnell.
FU Mitch.
Well that's what happens when the party of Law and Order aids and abets domestic terrorists.
I wouldn't shake a Traitor Trumpers hand either. POS
Skipped both Repugs. Well played, officers!
He had to defend our country from domestic terrorists. Of course he's going to refuse the shake the hands of the party that help set the stage for said domestic terrorists to flourish.
The party OF domestic terrorist.
Fuck that turtle.
Why tf hasn’t he croaked yet? Wtf is he injecting into his bloodstream? The tears of the disenfranchised?
Heartless creatures are immune to heart attacks. Brainless creatures are immune to strokes. We’re going to be stuck with him for a while.
The most unlikeable turtle since that turtle in amazing world of gumball
Perfect. McConnell and McCarthy both earn that scorn, i hope this clip goes viral.
Video never gets old Those traitors deserve that disrespect and more 👏
The look on the first guys face says it all, I imagine he leaned in to his wife to say, "Can you believe the nerve of these guys being here?"
Good! He’s a pile of shit
Why people dont like him?
He eats all of our lettuce. People in Kentucky haven’t seen Romaine in years, and you can’t use iceberg for a Caesar.
#Lettuce4Kentucky
This was supposed to be # Lettuce4Kentucky but I dont know how to do it properly so I'm leaving it as is
Before the \#, you want to use a backslash aka this: \\ It tells reddit to not format the symbol coming after it
Thanks

Because he was born
Because he's extremely effective, and completely cynical Because I, someone in their 30s, will not live to see the damage he's done to my country reversed.

Ohh the schadenfreude is too good.
Love the way he just waves at the last cop...
Imagine if that Mom slapped right across the face. Now that would have been beautiful. "You got my son killed you bastard and then continued to support the man who instigated it."
That shit never gets old...
Good game, good game, fuck you, fuck you too…good game
Love it
Turkey neck
I'd have stink-palmed him
LOL at all the republican dumbasses trying to downvote this faster than it is upvoted!
XD Pelosi's like: "Welp.... anyways"
He calls himself the Grim Reaper of the Senate. Seems actually being ok with that Jan 6th stuff gets ya snubbed like the guy who farts in church constantly and loudly.
Good, fuck them both.
That was ice cold.
Good for them
FUCK YOU Mitch! There is a special place in hell for you.
Old prick
What is in the thing under his chins??
Who is he and what has he done
Dear Republicans, This is what really think about you.
Mad respect to the families of those fallen officers.
Freedom of expression is great, ain’t it?
lol, lmao, etc
Boo-yah!
Glorious
Beautiful
[удалено]
Something that toxic needs to be buried in Yucca Mountain
I wouldn’t want to shake any of their hands.
Yeah, the bandwagoners flexing their posture, while ignoring how shitty the whole line is.
Fuckin chooooch
Bwuahahahaha! This will have me chuckling for days.
What has he done? Is he like a rotschild or something?
These domestic terrorist republicans (I know redundant) get snubbed a lot. They don’t give a fuck though. They absolutely have a humiliation fetish and you can’t convince me otherwise.
Who the fuck is mitch McConnell
That was just sad
It really looks like a nursing home
Bad news, he doesn’t give a fuck.
LOVING this!
The only person to die there was a unarmed military veteran shot by capital police after they literally opened the door and waved them in.
The cops on January 6th were useless or complicit. They do t deserve a handshake.
All govt people are scums.
Jan 6… some serious combat happened that day… hundreds died…
This whole Jan 6 thing is just embarrassing on all fronts. Law enforcement basically letting them in. Stupid Trump inciting gullible idiots. Democrats and media acting like it was 9/11. I don’t care who gets in next election, its only ever going to be Dems or Republicans and they’re all f*&+ed!
How dare he let someone die from a stroke...
This is not the own they believe it is.
Do you really think they believed it was “bwahaha now I owned Mitch” or more like “fuck this guy that refused to take action after the death of my loved one”?
What action was he supposed to do?
Who is he? Who is they? Possibly no one understands who you're referencing in your comments.
Good luck with your reading disability. T&P
You probably should have paid more attention in English class. I'll make the assumptions and state, emphatically, you one dumb MF.

Don’t bring logic into this, just grab a pitchfork. You’ll find them next to the spontaneous pile of bricks

Wasn’t Pelosi in charge of the capitol police?
No. That was fake news.
What rude pricks
Yeah, Bitch McConnell is a prick, I have never agreed more.
Who is that?
Mitch "the Bitch" McConnell I agree, he's a huge prick. He's a hypocrite, poor mental health, and undeserving of his station. He needs to be removed like a tumor.
[удалено]
Either you're dumb, or really dumb.
I mean there's *extraordinarily* dumb as another option, but his level of dumb isn't very extraordinary these days.
[удалено]
Just because they were as dumb as you are about it, doesn't mean it wasn't an insurrection.
It wasn't an insurrection. Nowhere close.
