Mitch McConnell this week, well last week now, decided to announce his
0:28
Not retirement, but stepping aside from the senate leadership he's held for so long
0:34
As you know Mitch McConnell was the senate leader for longest reigning senate leader
0:40
For the republicans in the history of the senate the longest reigning leader of any party in the history of the senate
0:48
His stepping aside is historic And what he did no matter what you think of him what he did for the supreme court and all the courts in the land
0:56
He made generational change for the conservatives that is going to resonate for generations to come
1:02
and for that We have to give him a lot of credit. There's a lot of things to criticize
1:08
But for that he will go down in history as maybe the most consequential leader in the history of the senate
1:14
Now Nancy Pelosi Watched the hero send-off republicans gave to Mitch McConnell
1:20
And that the media gave to Mitch McConnell making a very big deal about his retirement
1:24
And she feels slighted She's whining and complaining that she didn't get the same when she announced that she was stepping aside

Meanwhile, Mitch McConnell has announced that he'll be stepping down as senate majority leader
2:09
and I thought of you and I saw that announcement because your careers have been both parallel and at times intertwined and I thought
2:15
I I wonder what Nancy Pelosi thinks about Mitch McConnell's uh announcement
2:20
Well, I've worked with Mitch for years We have similar position in the 90s as we had a corresponding role
2:25
As the top democrat and top republican house and senate on the foreign operations of appropriation
2:31
So i've known and worked with him for a long time. I've disagreed with him a lot
2:36
in fact He's wrecked us with the court in terms of women's right to choose and so much else that this rogue court is
2:42
Going down the path of but we've worked on other issues together
2:47
It's interesting to me though if I just may say I for 20 years was in

3:36
I'm sad for his family's loss recently elaine losing her sister And uh, we'll just see how it goes but a a very strategic player in the congress
3:47
Well, that's one of the things that seems striking just finally here. Uh quickly
3:52
That I think I I think he's been a wildly destructive force for american democracy my own opinion
3:58
But I also think that it's clear that whatever will come after will be worse Uh, is that your hunch as well
4:05
