Mitch McConnell freezes during press conference



I certainly hope McConnell is okay. I've heard medical people say it could be as complicated as a mini stroke or possible seizure due to his concussion when he fell some months ago, all the way to something simple as a reaction to a medication or dehydration.


Either way I hope he gets the medical testing required to identify if it was anything serious and gets the medical attention he needs as required.

I fully understand that we as people have political differences but in matter such as these we should all be on the same side in hopes that everything is okay with Mitch.

However, I also hope that we finally sit down and have that conversation about age and these folks doing their jobs. Between this, Biden, Trump, and Feinstein there's more than enough to force a tough conversation about a standard regarding being fit for duty.


100%.... but honestly, the sad thing is people keep electing them... even when some of them have had obvious mental impairments....

All you have to do is read through most of the threads on this board to see the lengths people will go through to advocate the election of someone who has no business being in office.

It really is about common sense that has somehow been obfuscated.

Yeah, but we shouldn’t be a heavily governmentally influential position when we “head that way.”

There are age limits on the low end. I don’t consider it arbitrary to have them at the top end. At the very least, a cognition test due to variances. McConnell’s 80 is a hell of a lot different than Sanders’ 80, and sadly appears to be significantly better than Feinstein’s 90.
