Video
Senator McConnell was just wheeled out a little after 4 p.m. to head to his office ahead of the 5:30 p.m. roll call vote. He appeared somewhat confused by the rain and showed a delayed response, but still gave no verbal acknowledgment.
Emphasis mine. I didn’t know that. I’ve made a bunch of jokes that all he needed to do was yea/nay. But that was still too much for him.
This isn’t the only alarming development in McConnell’s ongoing health saga. This past weekend, his wife, Elaine Chao, stood in for McConnell at an event at the University of Louisiana’s McConnell Center.
In June, McConnell was found unconscious in his Washington, D.C., home and rushed to the hospital. His office spent weeks refusing to explain his extended hospitalization or elaborate on his eventual return to Capitol Hill. Since returning, McConnell has not appeared lucid or aware, and has remained eerily silent to the public. When the Republican finally did break his silence, he voted incorrectly on a Senate bill and had to be instructed on how to vote.

Critical support? lmao

Uhhhh what the fuck. Get the scriptwriters of reality away from the room, those hacks don’t have any sense of subtlety.
Something almost poetic about a weaselly ghoul of his caliber suffering from dementia to the point that he forgot how to vote properly
Bastard was a mendacious, calculating, neoconservative goon for a quarter of a century and now his brain is melting
Hope it hurts, asshole
he died as he lived, holding open a vacancy
wonder if he had a living will and it said to do all this. sheer love of the game.
Critical support to McConnel for providing a great potential Halloween costume to socially anxious party goers
But jokes aside, the only good thing I can say about the guy was that he was such a POS that I don’t have to feel bad about how they’re treating him
I still want the people responsible arrested and charged with elder abuse, not because I care about McConnell but because it’s a good precedent to set
elder abuse is bipartisan, it’ll happen right before they hold somebody accountable for war crimes
Unlike war crimes this one could happen in a totally non-partisan way, you just need a stray sheriff or prosecutor somewhere they take one of these demons to want to be famous.
If the Louisville DA decides they want a national profile it’s an easy path
Irrefutable proof you don’t need a brain to be a republican.
Incredible that we genuinely have a corpse for a politician
The rotting corpse-king in his golden throne
I wonder if they’ll ever tell us what the fuck happened. How the fuck did they keep him alive? Like do you think they gave him synthetic cerebrospinal fluid, artificial synapses, or something wild? Maybe like a brain pacemaker; they gave him a neuralink so the Impractical Jokers can SSH into his motor cortex to give the thumbs up.
Cause didn’t some medical event have him dead to rights? Then he just straight up disappears and reappears as this husk? It’s interesting and relevant only so far as how he holds the seat because he’s alive so they don’t trigger the special election clause. But if I’m daydreaming, I think they’re doing something medically that would give me the same reaction that the demons had when they realize Freiren’s secret technique.
This shit should be criminal and everyone colluding about it should be charged with criminal conspiracy. The votes are too impactful to everyone’s lives.
It is criminal, it’s elder abuse and probably some other things on top of that. There’s just no enforcement.
I am a law and order conservative by which I mean I want most of Congress and their staff arrested and the book thrown at them
I am a law and order conservative
how do you function here?
by which I mean I want most of Congress and their staff arrested and the book thrown at them
It also means I want state governments to enforce their own laws and arrest ICE agents and officials
Genuinely when I saw that first video of him back my first thought was “they put a robot in his skin”
He has been replaced by his Disney Hall of Senate Majority Leaders animatronic, which is actually a cybernetic homunculus made from his own rotting flesh
He is entirely non verbal in all of these videos, there are so many clips of him going around. He is barely responsive. He’s been trained to give a limp peace sign or vacant thumbs up and that’s it. I hope there is enough left of him to suffer.
Honestly he looks like he’s high af and having a good time in some other dimension
Yeah idk if it’s because of whatever’s wrong with his brain or because of some drug cocktail they’ve got him on, maybe both, but that motherfucker is on a whole other planet.
He’s been trained…
I didn’t even think of that. Of course.
I’m not convinced they didn’t spend 3 months sewing electodes into the braindead body for some modern “Weekend’s at Bernie’s”-type operations.
Like a barely-living, karate-chop action figure made of meat.
terry schaivo was kept on life support so mitch mcconnell could die and still vote.
He’s dead in the next six months
They’ll pump him full of monkey drugs to keep him going, but it’s the end of the line for Itchy Mitchy
I’ve got a nice bottle of scotch to mark the day.
I hope his soul is currently stuck in Silent Hill dimension for psychological torture
die motherfucker
US necromancy still lagging far behind it’s Asian counterparts. Pathetic.
What do you expect? The primary western school of wizardry is Hogwarts.
most of the lessons there are spent teaching the kids how to deflect safety inspections
Yeah, his brain is pud. Probably fell and hit his head, or a particularly bad resuscitation.
Even the official story that he had pneumonia could explain it, considering what hypoxia does to the brain.
CPR is traumatic on the body even for young healthy people, it turns old people into fucking pudding
I hope he is suffering through a hellish reality
Yeah can only hope and pray he’s fully cognizant that he’s trapped in a meat shell while they cart him around.
I can blame my episodes on Children’s Tylenol and the circumcision, what’s Mitch’s excuse?
He watched an asmongold stream
How come he looks like he’s showered, then?
He was forced to. Thats what made him unresponsive in the end. Can’t just shower people after watching assmongold smh.
