die bitch
Kentucky will just re-elect him
Vote Red coffin!
He’s right, the first time it was sad and the second time it is funny.
First as tragedy, again as farce.
Imagine how often this is happening when he isn’t on camera, it’s probably his 10th one today
I honestly cannot for the life of me understand why these fucks insist on holding onto power until their decrepit, ancient bodies begin failing one organ after another on live television. They are all incredibly rich because despite america somehow not being “corrupt” they make millions, tens of millions, and hundreds of millions of dollars while serving a lifetime making $200k per year. If I had a tenth of their wealth I would just fuck off and nobody would ever hear from me again.
It’s truly bizarre. I have to believe that they are true believers in their version of liberalism, it just doesn’t make sense otherwise. Like, if they were just cynical grifters they would check out early, but there are so many examples currently that it must be a deeper sickness
One answer is alienation. Pre 1940 politicians would personally apprentice ideological successors. Later, party machines would ensure transfers of power to popular candidates with similar views that could continue the older member’s political projects, while the older member retired and became an elder statesperson controlling party strategy and acting as an advisor.
But the Democrats and republicans have elided all political cohesion away, and candidates get in either through party stacking or via personal rhetoric.
So there are no political projects or institutional ideological continuity, there’s only the institution, blowing whichever way the loudest faction of capital says.
Thus ossification and gerontocracy as senior party members need to stay on because their machine will collapse if they don’t.
You see this in a lot of other organisations as well. We all know of the Trot org with 4 80 year olds at the top, a bunch of students who will bail after uni at the bottom, and no long term junior cadre.
It’s not like he’s working an assembly line, all his actual work is done by staffers, who also take care of all his personal and medical needs: driving him around, making all his meals, and literally wiping his ass. He’s basically in free hospice care, probably a much better life than retiring would be.
My speculative theory is that it’s selection bias. Plenty of senators cash out and spend the rest of their lives with a cushy job on a board of directors at some oil company, it’s just the absolute sickos like McConnell who stay in it just for the power itself. We don’t notice all the corrupt politicians who just take the money and run.
microsoft forced a security update while he was in the middle of a press conference and he needed rebooting
Vaxxed?
Wednesday’s episode occurred when a reporter asked the Republican leader if he was planning to run for reelection in 2026.
Dude probably heard “2026”, his memory hasn’t been working since the 90s so he must have freaked out
“Holy shit I’ve time traveled”
How about a show of unity and bipartisanship where him and feinstein battle to the death and both die in the process
The starting bell is a massive churchbell and the arena is an acoustic silo, and they will vibrate apart
Why the fuck they gotta be mini? Crank that shit up to 11.
@Finger@hexbear.net say the line!
no more half measures walter
Let’s get this guy to captain a rowing team.
Full, uncritical support to the blood clot in his brain.
every day he looks more and more like Dana Carvey in that turtle movie
the turtle club is like one scene but it was in the trailer so everyone remembers it
i hope each time he comes back from the full brain reboot he is scared and completely loses his sense of self. a little taste of the painful death that i hope awaits him
Sir did you poop yourself again?
id want him to suffer a long time, but Kentucky will definitely re-elect him 3 times if given the chance.

the KY Democrat candidates are always fucking terrible though. the Republican will say “i love guns!” and the KY Democrat candidate will make sure to agree.

Charles Booker would probably have given him a run, but the Dems snuffed him out in the primary in favor of professional loser Amy McGrath.
yea KY Democrats do that shit alllllllll the time. Source: im from that shit state
SUFFER, DEMON!!
Are these people just not allowed to retire?
They are a built up brand. A vessel. The locus of a network of power.
Replacing them is like removing a kidney.
I have no idea if it’s true but libs are saying the corpes of Feinstein can’t retire because the corpse of Mitch will block replacing her on committees.
What is absolutely the funniest shit for all kinds of reasons
have the staffers finally concocted their own sub-grift by realising they lose their jobs too if the representative steps down, so they’re literally propping the old fucks upright and enslaving them?
It’s too much work for CIA to produce new kompromat especially after they killed off most of their field agents with shitty opsec
