Encourage your crabs to do some light stretching because I have a feeling they will be dancing soon
My speculative theory is that it’s selection bias. Plenty of senators cash out and spend the rest of their lives with a cushy job on a board of directors at some oil company, it’s just the absolute sickos like McConnell who stay in it just for the power itself. We don’t notice all the corrupt politicians who just take the money and run.
