This was already happening...
I forget which vote, but he voted the opposite of how he was supposed to and a bunch of aids had to jump in.
They just yelled at him to vote the other way, didn't even attempt to explain what was happening.
There's an army of staffers running our government thru geriatric puppets.
Sheesh, I hate that we're at the point where I feel bad for Mitch McConnell. This is elder abuse.
That asshole deserves whatever elder abuse he's getting, times a hundredfold.
Ya, but that’s not happening to him, it’s happening to someone who is probably no longer him and is just a frightened old man like any other. I wish bad things upon the past Mitch who was aware and doing terrible shit, but this isn’t him anymore.
It’s important to remember that an outlet for rage rarely aligns with our usual morals.
So instead, let’s fight elder abuse while ensuring future generations understand that this man was a fucking nazi who brought nothing but shame to the nation and state he swore to serve, while enriching himself.
No, it's exactly what he would have wanted.
It is entirely fitting that Mitch McConnell is fillibustering Death itself
Why is that even allowed. That's so fucked up.
Seems illegal
I love watching him yearn for death, trapped in his own body.
This image from the article is rough. I have watched three grandparents decline mentally before they passed, and that is the face of someone who is not sure where they are but is doing their best to pretend they aren’t lost and scared.
As much as I hate the man for evil he has put into the world, that is not Mitch anymore, and I legitimately feel sorry for the lost mind trapped inside his body. I hope he passes soon, for everyone’s sake.
That man has helped kill millions of people.
Look, I want to piss on his grave as much as anyone, but it isn't retribution or justice when the individual suffering no longer remembers who they are or what they did. Makes me think of Nier: Automata with
I'm just ready for Kentucky to get another chance at a thinking representative.spoiler
___ Popola and Devola
Great game. Still don’t care. Dude has done imessurable harm to innocent and oppressed people. My grandma went like this and it’s horrible to watch. My grandma never heald a seat of power and helped destroy the United States and murder women and children. Fuck Mitch. Fuck the shell of Mitch and may his mindless bitch ass be as scared and unaware until he shuffles off this mortal coil. This is the great equalizer and just more evidence why we should be kind to each other and not tolerate Nazis. Mitch has been instrumental to where we are as a nation of Nazis right now. And we aren’t even fucking getting started. Sincerely one of his constituents.
Vote trump into prison. No quarter. No more sympathy. America lives or dies this November.
I understand, and if you get satisfaction then great! I just can't.
Absolutely vote Trump into prison for life. All 5-15 remaining years of it.
It’s not so much satisfaction in the sense that he is suffering but that his immense horrible power is coming to an end. And that nature and time are truly the great equalizer. I would be satisfied if he could experince all of this with the same lack of compassion and health insurance that his tenure has caused so many people to suffer like he is with zero help and care. Mitch is doing just fucking fine. The people he has voted to punish and destroy have not. And I hope they are waiting for him. Look up his voting record. And don’t loose that heart you have. But don’t let it let the pedophiles rape the earth.
Kentucky would proudly vote for him again if he ran. They are dumb as fuuuuuuck.
I get it had the same thing happen to my granma it was awful to watch and something I'd normally not wish on anyone. However, I can only hope Mitch suffers the same fate and survives a decade as a husk. Its the karma he deserves.
If it helps, remind yourself that this is what he would have wanted for himself.
Yeah, I think it's possible (and sometimes valuable) to have both disdain for someone's actions and decisions and compassion for things they didn't and couldn't decide. I hope he is removed from all positions of influence, but I wouldn't wish dementia on him any more than I would on anyone else.
I used to work in a hospice with stroke patients, I have seen that face a hundred thousand times on a hundred diffrent patients.
He's lost it obviously, he's not all there. Yet another embarrassment for all Americans.
Let's elect him as President.
Fucking over democracy even in a catatonic state? If young Mitch could see him now he would have the orgasm of a lifetime.
I watched Cody’s showdy about Mitch, and it’s disgraceful that he was / is allowed to uhhh…. Participate, in congress. He is beyond gone.
If someone has to be told how to vote they should be removed from office immediately. Fucking zombies.
Not just McConnell, all those geriatric fucks are too old to be clinging to power.
Fucking ghoul. Why in Congress a nursing home??? Get these geriatric ass fucks OUT OF OUR GOVERNMENT AND OUT OF OUR LIVES!
I know we should be sad to see his down fall from the "upstanding" individual he was by protecting the US form mandatory Paid Sick Leave, stealing a SCOTUS seat claiming 600+ days was too soon to get Neil Gorsuch, fighting against "greedy" 9/11 survivors, opposing civil rights, and filling a SCOTUS seat after an election had occurred with a Biden win. I hope the rest if his life is painful and very public
Apparently, his corpse puppeteer wasn't schooled on parliamentary procedure.
.... Was he edited to be more turtle like or is he this fucking turtle
Is he also being told who/what to vote for?
More than usual, you mean?
Yes.
It's still Weekend At Mitch's, geesh.
Elon probably shoved in a neuralink and they are controlling him remotely. He's gone full cyborg.
Weekend at Bernie’s
Uncanny resemblance...
For free? Fuckin commie.
This is Feinstein all over again. Embarrassing, but another sign of how backsliding this democracy is.
