Why Republicans should fire Mitch McConnell from his present job?

Basically, because he likes to "plow" thru stuff...

Also, he does not work for the people.

For example, if he was willing to work with the people, he would have suggested an FBI investigation to clear the name of Brett Kavanaugh, Donald Trump's choice for the Supreme Court. But, he preferred to rush everything thru with utmost urgency.

It would not be a good environment for the Supreme Court, with such a cloud over their heads. Mitch McConnell has failed his supporters, in that respect, in my opinion.

But, would any Republican dare challenge him for the Majority Leader (hopefully soon to change) position?

Profiles in courage are rare.

He obstructed Obama for 6 years.
He ignored Garland.
He forced Reid to give up the Judicial Filibuster.

He's the most effective pol the GOP has.

But I suppose if Republics are calling for DiFi to resign over Dr. Ford's allegations, we should call for McConnell's head too.
