Most of trumps conservative work however great has already been undone.
The lasting thing is scotus.
Which is a result of McConnell.
Just think if he had let Garland out of committee-hell if that happens he gets appointed then trump may not even win because that was the one deciding factor for some peoples votes.

McConnell's Supreme Court is going to be much more long-lasting and impactful than anything else Trump did.
Most of what Trump did has already been reversed and he couldn't even get the ACA repealed.

McConnell is swampy a.f. but you can't deny the legislative work he has done.

Trump singlehandedly brought about a political realignment that unified Democrats and neoconservatives. He's essentially purged the worst demographic of human beings from the Republican Party. He did what Pat Buchanan and Ron Paul couldn't.

SCOTUS will clearly have more long term effects. I honestly can't think of any Trump policies that he finished
The wall? Half built at best, and I'm pretty sure Mexico still hasn't paid for it.
Tariffs on China? Those seemed to peter out and China never reciprocated as promised.
Obamacare? Still there, in fact he probably helped it.
If we're just talking Conservative Legacy, the Turtle probably has this one easily.

Conservative Legacy
Trump's Presidency lifted the veil from the eyes of millions of people who used to believe what they were told by the mainstream media and who thought there was actually a difference between the two political parties. Trump, more than any other politician in my lifetime, has shown that a Uniparty does exist and that if you ain't invited and show up to the party anyway, you'll be destroyed.

SCOTUS isn’t just McConnell’s win. Giving him credit for Trump’s nominees is par for the Trump haters.

Absolutely.
This ultimately is my point.
Do I think Mitch McConnell has MY interests at heart-hell no!
I do think that he knows how to govern and many more times my interests and his interests intersect than say Nancy pelosis and my interests.
This is what trump and some on this board fail to realize or just simply don’t care. There’s no reason to intentionally piss off your potential allies.

McConnell is FAR more conservative than Trump.
It was Trump that wanted a third COVID stimulus right before the election and McConnell that stopped it.
It was McConnell and Ryan that passed a tax cut that Trump had to sign.
It was McConnell that put 250 conservative judges through the Senate---Trump didn't even know their names until the Senate had approved them.

I think it’s fair to say that the most defining things for Trump is appointments of 3 SCOTUS justices.
1-gorsuch was available because Mitch held up Garland.
2-kav trump was strongly rumored to be about to cave and Mitch told him to stand by him
3-ACB Mitch sped through right before the election under immense media pressure.
I think Mitch can take just as much credit here

You act like McConnell could have done this without Trump.
It took both of them.

Mitch just gave the DEMS 2 more years to stack courts by undermining the election.
Frick you

This is hilarious to me. Liz Cheney and Paul Ryan are slumber party buddies with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.

You think Trump picked these names out of a hat?
No, this was all a long-term strategy by MM. The federalist society lists were coordinated with MM and other top GOP (aka, establishment) pols.

"Part of McConnell's goal was to make sure that Trump was getting the accolades that he needed to keep on doing what he was doing," Josh Holmes, an advisor to McConnell, told the newspaper.
He continued: "There was no shortage of effort to raise the profile of the judges issue so Trump would continue to have interest in it. Every time I saw Trump privately, he'd say, Mitch McConnell. Judges. Judges. Judges. The only thing he wants is judges."

“Just as much” kind of destroys your Op. Congrats. We got it done in the first page.

At least you are backing off a little. In the OP you implied Mitch was 100% for judges:

And due to Mitch undermining races, he is allowing the dems 2 more years to appoint and stack the courts!
