Jeeesus. I can't imagine having all that political power and not being able to achieve the basics of having a happy, pleasant life.

Like, if you're going to be absurdly corrupt, channel that corruption into getting yourself a decent family situation.

not being able to achieve the basics of having a happy, pleasant life.

McConnell was also estranged from his three adult daughters from his previous marriage. There's hardly a stitch written about them (I mean, I guess that's probably appropriate), but rumor has it they are all Democrats.
