Mitch McConnell Suffers Mysterious Neurological Emergency During Presser But GOP Says Biden’s Too Old and Has to Go

First and foremost, we hope that Mitch McConnell is okay. We despise the man, who happens to be one of the evilest men in American political history. But we are Democrats and not evil, so we do not wish ill-will on him, we just want his crusty old ass out of the Senate.

McConnell briefly left his own press conference on Tuesday after stopping his remarks mid-sentence and staring off into space for several seconds. It was definitely not normal. I am obviously not a neurologist, but it appeared to be a TIA or perhaps an absence seizure.

The Republican leader approached the podium for his weekly press conference and began speaking about the annual defense bill on the floor, which he said was proceeding with “good bipartisan cooperation.” But he then appeared to lose his train of thought, trailing off with a drawn-out “uh…”

He then appeared to freeze up and stared vacantly for around 20 seconds before his colleagues in Republican leadership, who were standing behind him and could not see his face, grabbed his elbows and asked if he wanted to go back to his office.

He did not answer, but slowly walked back to his office with an aide and Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso, a former orthopedic surgeon who is the No. 3 Republican in the Senate. McConnell later returned to the press conference and answered questions from the press.

Asked about what happened, McConnell said he was “fine.” He did not elaborate. But he is not FINE. And considering not a day goes past without Republicans calling Biden too old to serve, this is some serious hypocritical BS.

And for McConnell to just say he was fine? No can do turtleman.

People on Twitter had some ideas:
