McConnell Has Another Mental Episode

[toobfreak]

Red herring fallacy

Nope, sorry, Clay, but my supermarket has been all out of red herring ever since Joe got in office!

The thread’s about McConnell's clear mental health incapacity.

But at least Mitch eventually snaps back out of it and seems pretty normal again. Joe just heads from one fog-bank into yet another.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell appeared to briefly freeze up and was unable to answer a question from a reporter at an event in Kentucky on Wednesday, weeks after he had a similar episode in Washington.

Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell appears to freeze up again, this time at a Kentucky event

According to video from a local news station, the 81-year-old McConnell was asked whether he would run for reelection in 2026. The senator asked the reporter to repeat the question before trailing off and staring straight ahead for about 10 seconds.

A woman standing at the front of the room with McConnell asked him whether he heard the question and she repeated it. When McConnell did not answer, she announced to the room that “we’re going to need a minute.” McConnell eventually answered two additional questions — though not the one about a 2026 campaign — and was halting and appeared to have some difficulty speaking. The woman then ended the news conference and McConnell left the room, walking slowly.

Feinstein and before her, Thurmond. It is sad to watch regardless of who.

Agee beyond all the mud slinging and name calling that politics is, these are still people and at some point they need to be protected from themselves at times. It’s funny until it turns sad.

He is a horse on his last legs.

Exactly like old Joe. Yes?

Jeez, it would be nice to see "leadership" that was not so old that they have to look at their feet on the way to a podium.

It reminds you of the old farts in the Soviet Union standing at Lenin's tomb on May Day.

 

[Natural Citizen]

Washington is full of them like this.
Makes congress look real bad for not removing them.

One would think that their families would step in.

When you don't step in I do believe that is elder abuse. At this point I have reason to believe that they would let him serve as a corpse or skeleton.

Be careful. Dont throw up your tapioca pudding lunch, boomer.

I use my fingers!

 

[Arlette]

We need some transparency on this. He's the highest ranking Republican in the Senate.

Where are the calls from Republicans for him to resign?

It's amazing how much he looks like a turtle

 

[toobfreak]

Exactly like old Joe. Yes?

Funny how suddenly, democrats everywhere are in a panic concerned that Mitch, a minority member of the Senate, is suddenly acting more and more like Joe Biden has been for years!

One would think that their families would step in.

No way. The money is too good. Just ask Hunter.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

This is about Mitch's physical and mental health.

I hope he is getting the help needs.

He should step down.

 

[braalian]

No one over 80 should be allowed to hold public office

 

[jotathought]

He was re-enacting Joe Biden ... off script and no teleprompter. nailed it!

 

[chesswarsnow]

Duplicate thread because libturds revel in his misfortune.

Father Time, undefeated. He is far from alone in terms of maybe finding a new carer path.
