McConnell has fallen multiple times this year, sources say | CNN Politics
Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell, who froze during a news conference Wednesday and earlier this year suffered a concussion after falling down, has also endured two other falls this year, according to multiple people familiar with the matter.
Not an ounce of sympathy. He’s an awful human and has done immeasurable harm.
Can’t believe our taxes are going to this dude just to keep him alive. Term limits should absolutely be a thing.
oh i don’t have an ounce of sympathy for the man, but it’s also very disappointing in the state of humanity to see how many people are making fun of him, given the fact that many of those same folks were upset at the reactions the right had about fetterman.
like, no sympathy is required, but if the community could maybe not stoop down to the level of the people we say we can’t stand, that’d be great
not that you did that, but it’s definitely a trend i’m seeing
The man actively benefits from the suffering of others. Fuck that guy. Malfunctioning Mitch could tumble down the steps of the DC metro, and I'd make the footage my fucking screensaver.
Fetterman wasn't dying. He had something treatable and returned to congress once his treatment was complete as competent as ever.
This is a death rattle. He's not coming back from this.
If you want to make a comparison to the Democrats, the comparison is Feinstein. And that's just as egregious. Both of them need to be out of congress now.
He's also had plenty of opportunity to retire. In any other field someone his age would have retired long ago. But it's been his choice to run again in every election and keep his iron death grip on the country, knowingly doing as much harm as he personally can to the political process and to the American people. (And yes, fuck the people who keep voting for him, but I also don't think it's quite that simple.)
So yeah, it sucks to wish harm on people in general. But there's a million caveats to that when it's a truly evil person, and when he's had every chance to retire. I mean, isn't that conservatives' whole thing, "personal responsibility"? It's been his choice to keep doing what he's doing until he becomes physically or mentally incapable. After watching Feinstein continue to make decisions that affect the US when she doesn't even know her own name, of course people can't wait to see McConnell gtfo, no matter how it happens.
Yikes. Might be time to retire.
He isn't turtley enough for the turtle club
Duuuuuude.
Over his dead body.
Your terms are acceptable.
Stop, I can only get so erect
i doubt they would let him
@sci Why not? The establishment can replace him in a heartbeat and Kentuckians will vote for whomever is picked for them.
Average lifespan of a tortoise: 80-150 years
Mitch McConnell's age: 81
🤔🤔🤔
Better roll him over on his back then.
He's trying to, himself
Don't you think he looks tired?
He's got the gaunt face of a man who's withering away. My grandpa, a much better man than McConnell, looked like that for the last few months of his life, despite spending the majority of his life with a slightly pudgy face. It is truly ghoulish the way they parade politicians like McConnell and Feinstein around as if they still have all their wits, when really they should have retired years ago. Hell, half the senate should have retired over a decade ago, but both parties value incumbency too much
Incumbency, ah yes, the low hanging fruit of retaining party control.
My boomer parents are adamant that feinstein is still "young." They don't want to admit to their own mortality (they are in their 70s). I believe that's what is driving a lot of this bullshit.
Americans don't believe they will ever die.
At least Harriet Jones, Prime Minister, acknowledged her mistakes and did her best to help humanity in the end.
I understood that reference.
Ooooh, the six words to topple a tyrant.
If only that actually worked...
I for one hope he is healthy enough to live the rest of his life in pain over years, and forced to step down and lose his power. This man has inflicted terrible damage to this country and its citizens. This is a man who put corporations and profit over anything and has sold our democracy to the highest bidder while empowering radical religious fanatics and fascists.
He's partly responsible for so much pain, suffering, and excess deaths in this nation via his support for gun lobbies and removing healthcare rights of Americans, for his support of Trump, and the excess deaths resulting from his administration.
I hope he gets exactly what he deserves.
Zero chance this decrepit human garbage will ever step down. I hope I can be proven wrong but I'd rather just see him stroke out and it be the end. Retribution won't undo what he's done. Putting him in the dirt will be the only chance to invite that opportunity.
I mean if we just poke him he may very well just topple on over
You're probably right, but one can hope
Ribbit
YOU get a ban! And YOU get a ban! EVERYONE gets a ban for wishing nature to take its inevitable due course! Muwahahahaha! Power Trump Mod powers - activate!
One thing I will give the mods of Worldnews credit for. Right when Ukraine invasion started a whole mess of accounts with odd history (3 karma, 2 comments, 8 years old) started posting Kremlin propaganda. Every single one I reported was knocked off.
Too many people in Congress that falls under the "Help I've fallen and I can't get up" crowd. That's not the foundation of a healthy democracy.
Life Alert should sponsor these geriatrics. Or maybe Mitch could shill reverse mortgages.
His ghoulish flesh-suit is finally starting to sluff off. Soon he will be without his precious goo and will melt away into a sewer drain
Looking forward to this guy fucking right on off.
Gotta pump those numbers up.
Rookie numbers honestly.
Sincerely? I don't want to hear another word about him until he doesn't get back up. 🤷🏼♂️
Good. Stay down.
Am I the only 1 that could hear the slurred words in his speech for a good couple of years ? Surely someone with health issues where it impacts the brain such as strokes shouldnt be anywhere near any sort of power.
He's always kind of slurred though.
Obituaries I won't be upset to read for $1000 Alex.
Old people fall... a lot.
I work in Hospice and 90% of our patients are referred after a fall.
Marvelous
I picked up my grandma probably 20 times in the last year.
The worst times are when he falls in the shower and he's naked and I have to pick him up bc he can't get up himself and my grandma is unable to pick him up
him and diane feinstein need to be thrown out of congress on the grounds they cannot perform their duties.
Mitch at his latest press conference.
Am I supposed to be seeing anything out of the ordinary with that photo?
I think he got contacts.
I was expecting the Crypt Keeper. Not far off, I guess!
Satan is finally starting to claim what is now rightfully his.
I wonder when Copeland's contact is up.
Thoughts and prayers
Why couldn't one of those times be out of a plane, mid-flight? It's just not fair.
Or off a cliff, a or maybe even just down some stairs.
May he receive exactly what he deserves.
It's feeling very 'Weekend at Bernies' in the White House.
gravity is a removed
So has every person 80+. None of these fossils belong in DC.
And not one of them was while going down stairs. Bummer.
As the weather finally cools off, I wish Mitch has himself an exceptional fall...
how many till his last one
Good, rot.
McClownel may not have read his contract with Satan closely enough.
Term Limits for all! #termlimits
Jarvis, open up the Mitch McConnell press conference freeze video and overlay Hidden Sea, Buried Deep by the Caretaker over it.
Thoughts and prayers
Mitch is a piece of shit, who has done irreparable harm to America and shares a significant amount of the blame for why the country and its government is in such a horrible place right now.
BUT I don’t wish him harm, at all. I hope he’s okay, seriously. He needs to retire. Now. And live out the rest of his life in private.
I feel like wishing Mitch harm is the same as wishing the Earth well. Dude is a cancer, I don't think there's anything wrong with hoping he loses the ability to inflict harm on others asap, and the only way he'll stop is when he's incapacitated or in the ground.
He's cancer. You don't wish a tumor well, you cut it out and throw it in an incinerator.
Why?
The whole notion of not wishing death or harm to people in general makes sense... but to evil people? in power? who use that power to inflict suffering upon millions? Naw that's a problem that doesn't deserve tolerance.
I think there are human that you can wish harm upon since it would be good for humanity in general. And why should be enjoy life in private, after he destroyed so many others?
I wish him plenty of harm, he doesn't deserve to live life in peace. He deserves to live it the way he wants women and minorities to live. It's okay to wish harm on people, it's not like you're trying to cause that harm yourself
In private? In prison!
Thoughts and prayers hahahahah
I feel like I see this same headline on OANN (extreme right website, best avoid it) but switch McConnell out for Biden.
I wonder if I should make a trivia game of people can tell what bias a line has if you removed the party related bits.
I love of you listen to the Trump victory speech and Biden victory speech they both have the same template (say the other side fought hard, now it's time for unity, etc).
LOL get outta here troll
Trumps whiny "victory" speech is him screaming about rigged elections. EVEN WHEN HE WON
What are your thoughts on the Biden victory speech?
"sorry to keep you waiting thank you very much. Now it's time for America to bind the wounds of division, to get together all democrats and republicans and independants across this nation.
It is time to come together as one United people. I pledge to every citizen that I will be President for all Americans "
And the Trump speech?
"The folks of this nation have spoken, they delivered us a clear victory, a decisive victory. I pledge to be a President who seeks not to divide but unify, and work with the confidence of the whole people.
I sought this office to restore the soul of America, the backbone of this nation."
Which do you like better?
