1. While you're right about Trump, you're wrong about McConnell

As long as McConnell is incapacitated and not dead, Republicans have LESS power. When he dies or retires, a special election will be held which will almost certainly be won by a Republican (Republicans have won 10 straight Senate elections in Kentucky. Democrats last won 34 years ago). If holding on to power is the priority, then Republicans should want McConnell to die ASAP.
