I DON'T GET IT

Mitch McConnell is 78 years old and is worth 22 millions dollars. How he accumulated that much money is open to speculation about insider trading, sweetheart deals, and a little tin box. But no matter. That's how rich he is. Which means for the rest of his life, he will want for nothing. So why the hell doesn't he want you to have $2,000 especially if you're black?  It's no skin of his nose. It doesn't lessen his fortune by a single penny. Yet he stubbornly refuses to allow you the check that won't kill the wolf, but will keep him from your door for another month or two. But no. Mitch McConnell does not want you to have $2,000. This is an idea planted firmly in his head. He doesn't relent. Not when he's sitting in his Baptist Church on Sunday and the minister is preaching about feeding the poor. Not when he's riding in his chauffeur-driven car to the Capitol and he sees street persons begging. Not when he sends his lavish salary check to the bank or spends more for lunch than most people pay for their weekly groceries. Mitch McConnell is a highly-paid public servant who doesn't give a damn for the public and never thinks of himself as a servant. Lucky for him the moronic citizens of Kentucky voted him in again. The only thing that could possible burst the bubble this privileged parvenue rides around in, insulated from ordinary people, is if Georgia elects Ossoff and Warnock to the Senate. Maybe then and only then will he wish he had given you $2.000.
