Elon is fighting to pay $2K in child support for 3 kids, getting sued for custody by another mother of his child, is estranged from another daughter… And this is who the party of “family values” is turning the keys to the country over to?

This is how Mitch McConnell should be remembered: Without him, there’s no President Trump right now—he had the chance to convict during impeachment and end it, but he didn’t. Without him, there’s no stacked conservative Supreme Court—you’d have more rights today.
