Donald Trump is losing and it sure likes like Mitch McConnell is preparing for that eventuality. We know McConnell will try and "smash and grab" run on the SCOTUS seat, but the idea that he's deliberately killing another round of stimulus in order to hamstring Biden's presidency - the same way he helped hamstring Obama's presidency - is breathtakingly cynical and entirely unsurprising.
Post-debate/Covid polling has been absolutely brutal for Trump. Freaking Rasmussen has him down 12 nationally. A 12 point loss carried across the country means Biden wins GA, TX and maybe KS. It's a bloodbath. It means Democrats likely win Senate seats in ME, AZ, CO and NC (while losing AL), but also GA, TX, IA, KS, MT and maybe AK. Hell, I wouldn't put MS out of play.
The GOP has not really had a positive governing agenda since Poppy Bush. They have mostly just wanted to undo Democratic taxation, regulation and social legislation. Those chickens are coming home to roost.
