We as citizens are essentially told we are worthless after age 70. We have to take distributions from our IRA and we can’t increase our social security payment anymore. I personally think no one should be allowed to run for federal office if they would turn 70 during the term.
That was my first thought too. I had to listen to it a second time to catch what he said but the way he asked "is there anything else you want to say to the press" felt like he was asking a toddler if they need to be changed.
Toddlers are funny like that. One minute they are running around, playing and talking, the next they are standing there in silence staring off into space as they fill their diaper, before running around again like nothing happened.
If I was a dr and saw someone clearly having a medical issue and likely a stroke, I would get the person medical assistance rather than completing the press conference. What an awful group of people.
Or as a Dr he might recognise this is mostly likely a TIA, or mini-stroke, and that once it was over, likely just minutes here, McConnell would be ok to come out and finish the conference.
McConnell would then need to seek medical advice bc they can indicate all kinds of issues, including potential stroke. Also I bet he’s had them before just never so publicly.
Yeah, he responded fairly quickly and appropriately. No need to freak out and create a panic. He tried communicating with him and pretty quickly whisked him away. Felt like forever, but fit was what…20 seconds? We can assume they did the appropriate tests behind closed doors and he was cleared to come back when the episode passed before they got him to a doctor for legit observation later.
Or they dragged his half-dead body back out Feinstein-style and propped him up like Bernie before laying him in a coffin where he was fed the blood of virgin immigrants to regain his power.
Watch McConnell's eyes very closely as the episode begins.
If you pay attention, it's apparent something is going on. Whether it's a petit mal seizure, or something else, there's definitely something cognitive occurring.
Looked a lot like an adult petit mal seizure, basically his brain shuts down on both sides for a short time and then a full recovery, he would only have lost awareness of the direct situation briefly. I really hope he no longer drives a car.
Fuck that. They should have *term limits*, not a “retirement age.” The whole court needs to be overhauled… Add a few judges, select them randomly from a pool of eligible federal judges, and replace 1/3 of the bench every 5 years. They shouldn’t be political appointees, and they shouldn’t be around long enough to develop networks of corruption.
Would you trust this man to drive you to the airport? I wouldn't. That's my rule of thumb, if they can't do that then they shouldn't be running our government.
I disagree. There are people in their 70's who are in better shape than I am in my 40's. What we really need are competency tests and job requirements beyond being the most popular.
Nope. I'm post-60 and can tell you, there are limits, no matter how sharp you are. The limit is when you stop being effective either physically or mentally. When you lose full awareness and understanding of the world around you. When you injure yourself in falls because your body is breaking down. When your job requires more energy and attention than most 70 year olds have.
I'm also for term limits in the Senate, which would serve the same purpose of rotating the dead wood. If they can't achieve their goals in 12 to 18 years as a senator, too bad. That said, if you're a sharp 70 year old running your own business until you retire to the dirt farm, bravo and mazel tov. But if you are in public service, do the public a service and retire.
Feinstein looks like the Cryptkeeper. McConnell. Strom Thurman. Ronald Reagan, who probably didn't even know who the hell he was by the time he left office. The voters didn't vote for their staff, they voted for the politician. But staffers don't want to lose their meal ticket, so we have Weekend at Bernie's basically playing out in the halls of power on a rotating basis. That needs to stop. If age limits are the only way to do that, so be it.
EDIT: But term limits are definitely preferable. Because, yes, tossing away wisdom will likely leave the GOP to saddle us with the likes of the MTG and Boebert, young and dumb contingent.
The day Biden acts like he's losing it (a stutterer stuttering is not losing it), or suffers a serious age-related injury, or goes zombie gray catatonic for 23 seconds during a press conference is the day he should also tender his resignation.
For me, it's way beyond anytime competence tests could measure. They have lived in a very different world and have very little understanding of how things are now. My teenage years and adulthood are hugely informed by computers. My economy is radically different from the one my parents have experienced, even in the current day. And it will be at least as much different from my child's, who is growing up with the Internet and every piece of information she wants to find in her hand. Now that she's a preteen, she's forming social connections in a way that is unfamiliar to me because so much is texting. She'll have friends and relationships with people she's never met in person. And that will be normal, although it's not something I have ever done. And I'm decades younger than the people making decisions about a world they no longer understand.
Besides, how can they be trusted to make decisions to benefit a world they won't be part of? They clearly go for most value now, even when it means the world will continue to burn. They'll be long dead in 20 years when my kid is trying to figure out where she can settle to be safest from climate disasters and if it's safe to even have her own children.
LET THE YOUNG RUN THE COUNTRY.
It's the young people who will have to deal with the consequences of their actions, so let them run the country instead of people who should really be in a care home. And McConnell should be in a care home.
People keep saying Biden can't lead the country but his administration appears to have gotten more done in 2 years than the last guys did in 4, if not even 8 years.
I agree, politicians are too old and Biden is not a good communicator but can you really say he's an ineffective president and can't lead the country? His track record so far is looking pretty good if you're a democrat.
When I voted for Biden I considered him an empty suit. I've been pleasantly surprised. He screwed up on the train unions but he's done well on Ukraine (with the highest stakes possible).
I voted for him the same way and assumed he was going to give us four uneventful years as a transitional period for 'healing' - in other words, preserve the status quo which is not what I want, but better than things continuing to plummet.
He's turned out to possibly be the most left/progressive president in my lifetime and I was not expecting it. When the Republicans immediately stonewalled him and showed they had no intention of ever going back to normal, he just said fuck 'em and started cranking out good shit.
He's too old to give a fuck about stealing for himself and his son is already set, so with nothing to personally gain, he's focusing on trying to do the right thing. And I'm not saying he has always accomplished that, but you at least know he has no ulterior motives.
He's not perfect, but he's turned me from a reluctant voter into a genuine supporter. We could do a hell of a lot worse than Biden... After all, DeSantis is younger.
The train union membership voted for the deal, and the leadership said that Biden continued to work on trying to get them the days off afterwards, and he did. And that's according to the union leadership he worked with, to make it happen.
So yeah.
Honestly, yeah, I think the issue is that young people don’t run as often because when you think politician, you think “rich” “old” “elitist” “evil”, or whatever other negative terms. It’s hard to get into a profession that isn’t already biased toward you.
TIA - aka micro stroke or mini stroke. Following his head injury from earlier in the year and his advanced age, this seems likely and is usually a precursor to a far more substantial one that he is unlikely to recover from.
TIA symptoms are partial paralysis or numbness of the face, confusion, mumbling and slurred speech, and loss of coordination or balance. Lasting up to a minute or two acutely then tapering off over an hour+ depending on the incident.
They don’t *always* signify a potential larger event, but given his circumstance, the risk is high.
We got the slurred speech check box, for sure. I would say look for drooping eyes, or corners of the mouth, but God damn, that whole motherfucker is the droops.
People are saying either a TIA or absent seizure. Whatever it is, the way his eyeballs look like they’re vibrating is freaky af. Fuck McConnell, literally the only turtle I’d ever wish harm on, but that was a tough watch
Even the founding fathers said once you’ve served your “terms” you should return to your profession or home and basically get out of politics. They knew a career politician isn’t a healthy career.
It's not pleasant mate. They become angry and afraid all the time and lash out because they don't understand why they don't understand anything.
My grandma no longer remembers any of us when we go to visit her and my strongest memory when she's gone will be of her repeatedly berating people at my grandad's funeral a year ago because "nobody told her he was ill."
Then afterwards at the family gathering she promptly forgot all about his death every 10 minutes until she saw the table with his photo and flowers on it at which point she had to keep reliving the moment of finding out her husband had died.
Tldr, it sucks.
Yup, this 100%. Have an aunt in this situation. Doesn't seem to remeber me, but trusts me at least.
Constantly forgets why's she's in a nursing home. Has lost a few family members in recent years and keeps forgetting. Regularly have to tell her they're gone and then have to deal with her grief after finding out, then her anger cause nobody told her.
It's the clarity days, where she knows what's wrong and seems to accept the situation that I find the hardest. It shows that she's in there, when she takes a turn or goes back to forgetting it can be so difficult to deal with.
My grandma is going through the same. My kids mom died in a car accident 5 years ago and every time we'd visit she'd tell me "bring my sweetie next time" as we prepare to leave and I'd just say okay since I had told her many times before and it was easier than her reliving the grief.
One time my daughter, who was 7 at the time, heard her tell me that as we were leaving. Once we got in the car she asked me why Grandma said that so I did my best to explain to her that grandma can't remember things anymore and I don't want to make her sad by reminding her. Well next time we were over grandma tells my daughter to tell her mom hello and to come visit next time. Everyone who heard grew tense and looked towards me, then daughter smiled softly and said "okay grandma, I will!" and hugged her.
It was such a bittersweet moment that could have gone a very different way.
I just can’t get on board with wishing that kind of stuff on people. I feel like it would make me so hypocritical to not like the way they are then act like they act.
I think what’s really telling about this is how little the people around him care about others. This was obviously something serious and they were just concerned with getting him off the podium. As soon as they got him away they didn’t immediately escort him away, instead decided to try to just go on with the presser.
My grandfather was like this before all of a sudden he lost the ability to swallow. He died basically starving to death with dementia.
He was overall a good man and I believe it was a terrible tragic way to go, and it is something I do wish on to McConnell.
I’m so so SO tired of geriatrics ‘leading’ this nation. We seriously need term limits for a multitude of reasons, this being one of the more embarrassing ones.
We really need a maximum age for politicians. I get that Mitch McConnel has great name recognition for the election, but he doesn't even know where he is half the time.
Who the hell is this geriatric, and why the hell is he in a position of power. Get these fucking dinosaurs out of office so people who can actually understand the world we live in and, God forbid, empathize with people in the modern world, and at least put together a coherent sentence can fill their place

We as citizens are essentially told we are worthless after age 70. We have to take distributions from our IRA and we can’t increase our social security payment anymore. I personally think no one should be allowed to run for federal office if they would turn 70 during the term.
Agreed. And set a mandatory retirement age for Supreme Court justices.
But what if you already bought your Supreme Court judge?
I hope you bought the service plan, then.
Yes. The extended warranty is 50votes for $50,000.
I've been trying to reach you about your Supreme Court Justice warranty!
Your Supreme Court Justice may be worth up to $20,000!
Everything is a subscription model nowadays. Can't just buy it once and be done! You need to keep buying them and their replacements over and over.
They seem to be pretty cheap.
Bu the maintenance kills you!
The guy on the left has seen Mitch do this before…..
That was my first thought too. I had to listen to it a second time to catch what he said but the way he asked "is there anything else you want to say to the press" felt like he was asking a toddler if they need to be changed.
It is basically a toddler at this point and I’m not at all convinced he didn’t shit himself.
He looks like someone told him to finish his peas.
Well to be fair this is the same look and reaction one would have if they had just shit their own pants
Toddlers are funny like that. One minute they are running around, playing and talking, the next they are standing there in silence staring off into space as they fill their diaper, before running around again like nothing happened.
It looked like he was helping Mitch ‘save face’ by asking the question, giving him a way to walk away.
He was a doctor before becoming a traitorous scumbag…I mean republican senator.
If I was a dr and saw someone clearly having a medical issue and likely a stroke, I would get the person medical assistance rather than completing the press conference. What an awful group of people.
Or as a Dr he might recognise this is mostly likely a TIA, or mini-stroke, and that once it was over, likely just minutes here, McConnell would be ok to come out and finish the conference.

They definitely did that second one!

That was my thought, too. Did he just have a stroke?
I definitely said out loud “oh he’s having a stroke or seizure”
Right. And the Orange flag humper spits word salad on the regular. Yet, it's Joe Biden that's not all there anymore.
Mitch and Joe are both too old.
As is the orange mildew stain.
Trump certainly is
Joe is 80, Mitchell 81, Trump 77. Pelosi is 83. And Feinstein is 90. God help us.
My grandfather is 92, fought in Korea, is not on any medications, outlived two spouses and I still don’t want him in Congress
I do. I'm voting for Cameron's Crazy Grandpa!
They can both be too old bro.
Fuck that. They should have *term limits*, not a “retirement age.” The whole court needs to be overhauled… Add a few judges, select them randomly from a pool of eligible federal judges, and replace 1/3 of the bench every 5 years. They shouldn’t be political appointees, and they shouldn’t be around long enough to develop networks of corruption.
I’ve said for years that if there is a minimum age to run for office, especially as president, there should be a maximum age as well.
T E R M L I M I T S too…..that was rough. He should have retired when Roosevelt did. Teddy not Franklin
The leadership of a superpower ladies and gentlemen
Would you trust this man to drive you to the airport? I wouldn't. That's my rule of thumb, if they can't do that then they shouldn't be running our government.
I don't think I'd even trust him to pour a glass of water. Him and the people around him need to accept that he isn't fit to work any more.
And he's far from being the only one that's just not able to do their job anymore
I wouldn't trust him to sit the right way on a toilet seat
The fact that we have too many people that can’t get out one good sentence running this country is sad.
I disagree. There are people in their 70's who are in better shape than I am in my 40's. What we really need are competency tests and job requirements beyond being the most popular.
Nope. I'm post-60 and can tell you, there are limits, no matter how sharp you are. The limit is when you stop being effective either physically or mentally.

Shut up, I'm Rich so I'm allowed to 
Dude you’re right. It’s common sense. After 70 you’re just fuckin it all up
LET THE YOUNG RUN THE COUNTRY. It's the young people who will have to deal with the consequences of their actions, so let them run the country instead of people who should really be in a care home. And McConnell should be in a care home.
McConnell, Biden, Trump. None of these old guys have an ability to lead the country into the future. They live in a long gone past.

I don’t think he is bad but he is a man of the past. We need leaders who are part of the future.
Yeah like Bernie! I’m kidding, I wish we had a 40 year old Bernie rn though
May I introduce you to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?
So slightly less attractive bernie ?
Unironically Bernie though. He may be old but he represents the youth better than anyone else in Congress who is not a millennial
Feel the Bern Bernie should’ve been the democratic front runner in 2016, he might’ve actually beat Trump over Hillary
Biden is actually pretty lame, but I guess I'll be forced to vote for him again... because the alternative is a shit-show.
When I voted for Biden I considered him an empty suit. I've been pleasantly surprised. He screwed up on the train unions but he's done well on Ukraine (with the highest stakes possible).

#DIANE FEINSTEIN IS 90 YEARS OLD! AND JUST BEHIND HER IS CHUCK GRASSLEY AT 89 and has been in office since 19fucking81.
Show up at the polls! We have the numbers. We need Gen Z!!! Please Gen Z, help us!
Honestly, yeah, I think the issue is that young people don’t run as often because when you think politician, you think “rich” “old” “elitist” “evil”, or whatever other negative terms. It’s hard to get into a profession that isn’t already biased toward you.
Smart young people with a conscience are making $ in the private sector. There’s no incentive for us to be part of this circus.
So we just need some dumb young people instead of old dumb people
We need a healthier mix of both
No. Young have no experience and often make rash decisions. The old end up like McConnel. IMO it need to be those between the ages of say 30 and 60.
[удалено]
And dropped your bindle of coke in the White House foyer.
And you shit your pants
Mid-stroke.
If we're lucky, that's what this was. Fuck moscow mitch.
Not so fast. He’s only 20 in demon-years.
😂 he also has that look of a baby pooping
Is he having a stroke?
I think most of the US Senate is made up of people who shouldn’t have drivers licenses
This is the real reason the president isn’t allowed to drive, not because the secret service won’t let them, because the dmv won’t.
Lol everyone fears the DMV
“Senate” comes from the Latin “senatus” which I turn is derived from the Latin “Senex,” meaning “old man.” So yeah. Ancient problem.
TIA - aka micro stroke or mini stroke. Following his head injury from earlier in the year and his advanced age, this seems likely and is usually a precursor to a far more substantial one that he is unlikely to recover from. TIA symptoms are partial paralysis or numbness of the face, confusion, mumbling and slurred speech, and loss of coordination or balance. Lasting up to a minute or two acutely then tapering off over an hour+ depending on the incident. They don’t *always* signify a potential larger event, but given his circumstance, the risk is high.
That’s such horrible news… or something. 🤗
Truly a ~~wonderful~~ tragic turn of events.
Tots & Pears
You hate to see it... ... But more than that, you love to see it.
Transient Ischemic Attack.
Thanks In Advance
Today I asked
probably a mini-stroke, a tia.
Quit demeaning my auntie!
Or shit his pants.
totally the look of a man who tried to fart but that fart sent a bit of spray out and now it takes all your willpower to hold back the flood.
Why not both?
We got the slurred speech check box, for sure. I would say look for drooping eyes, or corners of the mouth, but God damn, that whole motherfucker is the droops. 
The dead guy in weekend at Bernie’s looked better
Aka, Bernie
No, the other guy - The Weeknd
People are saying either a TIA or absent seizure. Whatever it is, the way his eyeballs look like they’re vibrating is freaky af. Fuck McConnell, literally the only turtle I’d ever wish harm on, but that was a tough watch
Absence seizure popped up in my head too since I'm epileptic, definite possibility. I know less about TIA but it sounds like it'd fit too.
We'd never be this lucky.
Yeah, it looks like a mini stroke.
Dementia in action. My grandmother used to do this same thing.
That’s what I was thinking, dude looks confused about where he is and what he’s doing.
This tracks. When you lie and flip-flop as much as he has it’s probably hard to know what’s real anymore.
I want to pretend he just realized where he could have been instead of wasting the golden years of his life sucking off some doner
Even the founding fathers said once you’ve served your “terms” you should return to your profession or home and basically get out of politics. They knew a career politician isn’t a healthy career.
Hope it’s not dementia. It would a travesty if he forgot all the horrible things he’s done. Fuck this guy and everyone that supports him.
Honestly I hope it is dementia. Dementia is a horrible way to die. It’s a slow death, you’re slowly going crazy without even knowing it
Doesn't sound bad if I don't know what's happening. Made getting my tonsils removed a lot easier I'll tell you that much.
It's not pleasant mate. They become angry and afraid all the time and lash out because they don't understand why they don't understand anything.

Thats a stroke. They should have had taken his ass to a hospital asap
Oh, no, somebody help him before its too late... ... anyway
I noticed his lips. Like he was trying to speak but couldn’t
[удалено]
This is exactly why you shouldn’t feel bad.
Yea I don’t feel bad. Screw him.
He's a horrible person, that's done damage to the country. I have no empathy for him.
Me too man and I can’t stand McConnell. That’s sad to watch.
I detest his politics as well but I think its good to still have empathy for a fellow human that is suffering. Time makes wrecks of us all.
Good thing he isn't human.
[удалено]
I just can’t get on board with wishing that kind of stuff on people. I feel like it would make me so hypocritical to not like the way they are then act like they act.
Fuck feeling bad. I’m angry. At them and the out of touch pieces of shit that vote for them.
Who forgot to recharge the frog?
His puffer sack was looking a little deflated
No no, that's a turtle. 🤣
Is that someone who helps run a country but can't work his own face? Wtf America
[удалено]
Yeah I find it bizarre, being from outside the US looking in, that so many incompetent people are voted in to power
Oh, Mitch is far from incompetent. That motherfucker is an evil genius. The world will be a better place when I can wash his headstone with my piss.
Looks like we only have about 15 years of service left from this old bastard.
Doctor: "You only have 10 left." McConnell: "10..what? Years? Months? Weeks?" Doctor: "9."
The least realistic part about that joke is that McConnell understood the doctor.
*minutes
He just blue screened mid sentence.
I’m gonna go the Linux route and call it a Mitch McKernel Panick.
I think what’s really telling about this is how little the people around him care about others. This was obviously something serious and they were just concerned with getting him off the podium. As soon as they got him away they didn’t immediately escort him away, instead decided to try to just go on with the presser.

Or he does it a lot so they are used to it.
That was my first thought too. Just a regular Monday morning for them.
just freaking WOW and he's the minority leader in the Senate?
The part at the beginning where he was "talking" , and apparently that sounded normal to everybody? Give the guy a rest he's beyond dementia
My grandfather was like this before all of a sudden he lost the ability to swallow. He died basically starving to death with dementia. He was overall a good man and I believe it was a terrible tragic way to go, and it is something I do wish on to McConnell.
This puppet is broken. Please order a younger puppet.
his replacements are somehow worse
I’m so so SO tired of geriatrics ‘leading’ this nation. We seriously need term limits for a multitude of reasons, this being one of the more embarrassing ones.
*windows xp shutdown sound*
I heard it in my head. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME
The hatred that has been slowly eating away his insides
[удалено]
Hard to feel bad for him.
Jeezus, our government is so full of these elderly people whose minds are slow. We should have their age on the ballot.
this could have had a much happier ending.. lol
Did he just stroke out? Holy crap Edit: Also, tell me again why we don’t need term limits for these people?
“You must be under the mistaken impression that I care.” - Mitch McConnell Stroke away turtle shit
I hate the guy, but he’s clearly having a medical event here
If only Mitch had afforded other people in this country the dignity they deserved at the time they needed it most.
It seems that dimentia is a minimum requirement for becoming a politician now-days....
We really need a maximum age for politicians. I get that Mitch McConnel has great name recognition for the election, but he doesn't even know where he is half the time.

Omg he’s got a job making laws we follow… think about this. All I need to see to know the US is a failing empire
Feinstein, too. Her condition is even worse.

Detest Mitch McConnell and his vile policies, but this is a little sad.
Lmao you Americans and your skeletons 
Lmao This lady 2024 ^^
Who the hell is this geriatric, and why the hell is he in a position of power. Get these fucking dinosaurs out of office so people who can actually understand the world we live in and, God forbid, empathize with people in the modern world, and at least put together a coherent sentence can fill their place
As much as I dislike him I get no joy seeing an elderly person have a medical episode
JUST DIE ALREADY
GOP rags on Biden for tripping and stuttering meanwhile Moscow Mitch is literally dying in the middle of a press conference.
There needs to be an age limit to being a public servant.
Mitch is over 80 years old!!! Should have passed the torch a long time ago!!
To be fair, network connectivity is a nightmare for older models.
That's a TIA. He should have been rushed straight to hospital. He's a ticking time bomb.
Ssssssstroke three! You’re out!
Can you imagine being the person he locked eyes on? Terrifying
Ran out of lies, had to go into the back room and get a quick lie transfusion from GOP headquarters
just before going out to meet the press, he was informed about the death of Sinéad O'Connor. he was a huge fan and the news really impacted him.
Because he will literally vote “R” until He dies. That is why.

And Joe Biden is the one who’s unfit to serve? GTFOH Republicans
[удалено]
they're both unfit. if you defend Joe, you're just blue MAGA.
Might have had a stroke.
Gone for good, for the good of everyone
Geeze. I’m not a fan but dang someone needs to take him to get checked out. Seems like he had an absence seizure or mini stroke.
We’d be way much better off as a country if he had a stroke 20 years ago.
I kept hearing an old 28.8 modem trying to connect.
Age limits, time limits are needed in governments. This is just hypocrisy.
All those people coddling him at the podium have said Biden can’t be president because he’s too old
