McConnell relishes role as 2020 debate villain

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is reveling in being the antagonist of the 2020 Democratic debates.

Several candidates took shots at the Senate GOP leader, who is up for reelection next year, during the first debate. With four senators — and former Vice President Joe Biden, who worked with McConnell for decades in the Senate — taking the stage Thursday night, McConnell is likely to revive his role as villain.
