My Take
Whatever one makes of his politics, Mitch McConnell is a study in institutional endurance. Born in Sheffield, Alabama, but the defining Kentucky senator since 1985, he became the longest-serving senator in his state's history by mastering procedure rather than oratory. He is a tactician, not a showman, and that quieter form of power is precisely what makes him so consequential and so divisive. The 2024 Ukrainian Order of Merit hints at a foreign-policy streak that complicates the caricature. I find the sheer stamina remarkable: nearly four decades in the same chamber demands a kind of relentless will that I can respect even where I might disagree.
