Mitch McConnell broke the news early
0:36
today he is finished in the United
0:39
States Senate now this is shocking
0:42
considering
0:43
Mitch's long storyed career and also
0:47
looking at other people in office at the
0:49
same time as him who have died in office
0:52
or seem determined to die in office
0:56
McConnell is actually opting to retire
0:58
he said that this term in the Senate
1:01
will be his last and he's had many terms
1:04
he goes on to talk about his career and
1:06
all of that and and and it was really a
1:08
great career for conservatives he got us
1:10
the Supreme Court he got us tons of
1:13
federal judges there's a lot of good
1:15
that Mitch McConnell did before he was
1:17
so vehemently opposed to president Trump
1:19
on so many
1:20
things I want you to listen to this and
1:23
let me know what you think in the
1:24
comments we're going to St to you just
1:26
really quick if you'll stand by um
1:27
Senator Mitch McConnell has announced
1:28
he's not going to run again for
1:30
re-election we think he is speaking now
1:31
on the senate floor if you'll stay with
1:32
us we want to dip
1:36
in during my time in the
1:39
Senate I've only really answered to two
1:45
constituencies the Republican
1:48
conference and the people of
1:52
Kentucky over the
1:55
years the first group trusted me to
1:59
coordinate
2:01
campaigns to count
2:04
votes to steer
2:07
committees to take the
2:09
majority and on nine
2:12
occasions to
2:14
lead our
2:17
conference serving as a Republican
2:19
leader was a rare and yes rather
2:23
specific childhood
2:25
dream and just about a year ago I thank
2:30
my colleagues for their
2:31
confidence which allowed me to fulfill
2:38
it to the distinguished members of this
2:40
body I've had the privilege to lead and
2:44
I remain deeply deeply
2:48
grateful today however it's appropriate
2:52
for me to speak about an even deeper
2:54
Allegiance and even longer standing
2:58
gratitude
3:01
seven times our fellow kuckian have sent
3:04
me to the
3:06
Senate every day in between I've been
3:10
humbled by the trust they placed in
3:12
me to do their
3:15
business right
3:18
here
3:19
representing our Commonwealth has
3:23
been the honor of a
3:27
lifetime I will not see this honor an
3:31
eighth
3:32
time my current term in the
3:35
Senate will be my
3:40
last I've been a student of History my
3:43
entire
3:45
life I can't remember
