Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell went up against Amy McGrath Monday night in the U.S. Senate debate in Kentucky and things went even worse than you would expect. McGrath brought up Mitch’s failure to pass an additional COVID-19 stimulus package and in response, he couldn’t hold back an evil chuckle.
“The House passed a bill in May and the Senate went on vacation,” McGrath declared.
“You just don’t do that,” she continued on as McConnell let out a croaking laugh.

This wasn’t the only time McConnell responded with a rude chuckle, it kept happening throughout the entire debate. It was like he viewed his opponent and the coronavirus pandemic as a joke.
FIVE times, @senatemajldr LAUGHED OFF questions regarding COVID during tonight’s #KYSen Debate.
It’s obvious that Mitch McConnell isn’t taking this election, COVID, or KY voters seriously. pic.twitter.com/pnaTR78yWi

The situation we are currently facing in America is no laughing matter and the rest of social media agrees. The responses to the situation on twitter were both entertaining and eye-opening.
That evil cackle. KY deserves better than that old fart.

McConnell’s team needs to write DO NOT LAUGH on the palm of his hand.

Dear @senatemajldr Mitch McConnell,

Mitch McConnell likes to think of himself as the “Grim Reaper” of the Senate but people are fed up with both his lack of action and his pathetic laugh.
