If there were ever a man that didn't deserve any sympathy for something like this, it is Mitch McConnell.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Pretty much.
Oh, he’s being used by others in his party while his cognition declines? Guess what he was doing before that happened.
I can’t stop him if he plans to die standing up, but since he chose to stand directly on the face of America, he gets no tears from me as he goes.
Pos got free care for his polio and now thinks free healthcare is communism.
TIL polio contracted Mitch McConnell.
Glitch McConnell
This was a really odd scene, dude just stares right off into space and comes back to say he's fine. That was a classic seizure if I ever saw one.
Yup my grandpa has seizures like this too. Maybe 81 year olds shouldn't occupy powerful leadership positions?
What! You’re saying the system of oligarchic gerontocracy we’ve had for all of modern history, that is literally burning our planet, should be changed?
Blasphemy!
I know the Right likes to throw around Biden Bot's text to speech timeouts, motor control issues, ghost handshakes and the gibberish world salad he likes to produce but I like to think there's a parallel dimension where this is frontpage news world wide, no matter where you politically stand.
But we're in this dimension, unfortunately. 🌚
I’m not even American. I hate most of the American politics and politicians. It’s infectious, like a disease once it crops up in the US it spreads to Europe sooner or later.
With Trumps campaigning and subsequent victory, the alt right nazis here in Sweden grew and made it into parliament.
There hasn’t been much of an abortion debate here. It’s been given that people should be able to short, but there has been some discussion about cutoff points. Then Roe v Wade was overturned and boom! Abortion was suddenly a topic.
Last election, a major political talking point was allowing for the creation of areas where police can stop anyone they deem suspect and search/interrogate them. Literally stop and frisk!
We’re also fighting a war on drugs. We have some of the most draconian policies for it.
We live in a society, and I’m sick to death of it. I want out!
It’s even stranger to me that nobody reacted or did a damn thing for a good 10 seconds. Then they took him backstage and prepped him for questions, rather than taking him to THE FUCKING HOSPITAL LIKE NORMAL HUMANS WOULD.
Then they took him backstage and prepped him for questions, rather than taking him to THE FUCKING HOSPITAL LIKE NORMAL HUMANS WOULD.
These are Republicans though. Simple human care and compassion is not their strong point.
Just fucking die already Christ.
Well, you’re about 2,000 years behind, but boy do I have some good news for you…
You've been banned from /r/politics
Dude straight up shit himself. I have seen dogs make that same look. Term limits would fix this.
Did anyone try turning him off and on again?
I nominate you to be in charge of turning him on.
Is it finally happening?
Nah, someone finally found one of his phylacteries but he’s got like six more
