MITCH McCONNELL — the book
A book by Sean Sandoval

MITCH McCONNELL

The Unmaking of American Democracy
He didn't need to break the rules. He knew how to use them.

McConnell used lawful Senate power to win lasting victories, above all the 6-3 Court, at the cost of the restraints that made divided government work. The Court he built then limited the accountability he had pointed to for Trump.

Act III — The Harvest

Going nuclear, the judicial assembly line, and the thirty days before an election.

Act IV — The Boomerang

The January exception and the Court he built.

Act V — The Reckoning

Candidate quality, what Kentucky got, endorsement and exit.
