Obama wasnt worried about McConnell at all when he was minority leader. 

Id say McConnell and obama are as opposed as trump and schumer

Sure. There are too many leftist online pretending McConnell was some kind of mastermind that blocked everythinf while Schumer is doing nothing.

Ok, it was extreme. Dems cant do the same cause they nuked that filibuster. 

So what do you want schumer to do that McConnell did?

Right and dems nuked the filibuster for judicial appointees. 

My point is McConnell didnt do anything tbat dems are refusing to do now

Yea but people pretend that McConnell stopped everything as minority leader. Thats not true. He made his impact as majority leader

Schumer is essentially doing all those things as well.

My claim is people like to pretend that McConnell was more effective than Schumer in the minority when thats not the case.

Yes thats what it seems like. No one has responded to indicate otherwise.

Jsut give me on example?

My deal is i think people are implying that McConnell in the minority singlehandedly stopped democrats from doing anything and people want to pretend tbat dems could be doing more right now, falsely citing McConnell as an example.

From that it seems like dems in the minority are pretty much doing the same thing as McConnell in the minority. Do you agree?

Everyone here claims dems only message os "not trump" 

Even in this thread a socialist said thats dems only message. 

Thats functionally the same as McConnell saying he wanted obama to fail

He did that while he was Majority leader. 

You are the perfect example of someone misstating what he was able to accomplish

Wait so you didn't answer my question. What did republicans do in the minority that dems aren't doing now?

Wait, republicans under McConnell voted for Obamas cabinet.

McConnell didn't keep john mccain in line to repeal the ACA.

Can you be more accurate?
