In a New York Times editorial Mitch McConnell reportedly has claimed to be reaching bipartisan solutions.

Should we dare to recall how McConnell and Ryan were the Abbott and Costello of the do nothing Congress during the Obama years?

McConnell wouldn't know what bipartisan was if it bit him in the ass.

Default Mitch McConnell Bipartisan?

He has never been bipartisan I don't know why he would want to start now. Oh, that's right, the Democrats have control now!

Mitch McConnell Bipartisan?

The man is a doormat for the super-rich. Bipartisanship is not part of his nature, he would really struggle with it.

McConnell made it very clear that he would literally do everything in his power to stop ANYTHING that Obama tried to do.

McConnell said himself he would "do everything I can to make sure Obama is a one term president."

Mitch is the opposite of bipartisan. Our government and the United States will be much better off without him in office. he's gotta be in his mid-70s, hopefully this is his last term.

McConnell is a poop stain on the country, one of the worst politicians of my lifetime.

Mitch is a final remnant left from the Jim Crow era.

The only reason for Mitch to be bipartisan is if he cannot keep a handle on his own caucus. I am guess with Gardner, Collins and Tillis up for reelection in 2020 red/swing states, he figures he needs a couple of votes out of Tester, Sinema and Manchin to move things forward. He also has Ga and Az looking surprisingly available to Dems two years ahead of senators being on the ballot in a Presidential. Murkowski, Romeny and Sasse potentially breaking free of Trump at times also magnifies the need for even 1 or 2 votes needing to come from Ds.
