Mitch McConnell had an active hand in trying to prevent plenty of elderly fall victims from getting healthcare to treat their injuries, so it's okay to point and laugh.

all of maga twitter is celebrating while most dems/liberals are doing the whole prayers/putting politics aside thing.

its wild how much republicans hate republican politicians (i mean...they tried to kill their own vice president) but they still vote for them because theyre brainwashed to hate 'the left' even more.

Yeah, he's toast.

Term limits ASAP please. For all parties. Enough's fucking enough. People like *this* are deciding policy for future generations. They don't give a fuck about long term problems at all.

Tune in to Hallmark Channel November 14th and 15th!

That's actually pretty scary. This should be the sign to go ahead and get him up outta there.

I dont like him, and yeah i get people can come up with sever reasons to feel nothing, or even enjoy it, but on a human level for me I had a hard time watching that.

either way, he needs to dip out, even though there's a 100% chance his replacement will be even worse

Asked about the episode, an aide pointed to McConnell’s saying, “I’m fine,” but the aide added that McConnell “felt lightheaded and stepped away for a moment.”

turned a corner and is one of the only repugs who are at this point openly criticizing Trump...we might need this crusty jowl hanging bastard

If I had won so thoroughly, I would retire and enjoy what my weird, evil hands had built. Do woodworking or play with your grandkids or something. Being driven to dominate and ruin is one thing, but to do to it so successfully and have it all turn to ash in your mouth so you need to clock in every day is grim. Like a curse.

"what's a leader if he isn't reluctant"

Uhm hmm.

I assume it's been discussed at some point

and of the possibilities, who would be the worst, and who would be the least bad?

to pass some law restricting who the governor (a Democrat) could appoint should he exit before an election.

Here is what they passed:

The appointee shall be selected from a list of three (3) names submitted by the state executive committee of the same political party as the Senator who held the vacant seat to be filled, shall have been continuously registered as a member of that political party since December 31 of the preceding year, and shall be named within twenty-one (21) days from the date of the list submission

So he can pick the least odious out of 3 probably awful candidates by law now...

Edited to add, Daniel Cameron would probably be on the short list (*puke*)

but more who would take over as minority leader

South Dakota. Current minority whip. Seems like a super boring guy, but that didn't stop Mitch from decades wreaking boring havoc.

The super majority republican legislation only did it as a way to undermine and steal more power from the office.

Trust me, there's nothing fair about stripping a democratically elected official from his fairly won powers.

he's done

then mitch retires and the repub legislature nominates him for senate.

the repub majority changed the law and passed a rule that the party of the current senator nominates the replacement and not the gov (after the gov was won by a democrat lol).

they saw the writing on the wall for mitch.

and mitch and his allies have been grooming cameron to replace mitch for a while. gov was just a stepping stone to the eventual senate seat.

i don't care what party you support. this is ridiculous.

they sound good in theory but just supercharge the advantage to candidates backed by big money interests and basically help cement the revolving door for whoever lobbyists choose to run.

theres no magic bean.

I'll keep hoping.

We can talk around it all we want, but that's the look of a man dying and trying not to confront his mortality.

You ask a beat down old person to think into the future they at least normally start to talk about the past.

That man is trying to filter normal ass human thoughts through decades of political gobbly gook and it just don't work that way no more.

u r blind if u can't admit that of biden

at the SOTU he seemed old as shit the first half hour but was pretty spry by the time it was over.

He does look super old and feeble at times, and it's pretty hard to picture him getting through another campaign and election cycle, but there's really not a good alternative for dems.

own goal by the dems running these relics. find a candidate whose mind cycles well

joe or bust

I thought he was 50 in 2008
