I’ve voted against this prick for over thirty five years. At least the traitorous sumbitch will kick the bucket before I do!
You must live around a bunch of dickheads.
We call them Kentuckians around here.
As a matter of fact, I do! And I moved here from Chicago about 40 years ago and landed right in the middle of Magaland. I just lay low and listen to the ignorant dingleberry’s ramble on about how great Lord Feltersnatch is!
There must be a very good reason you held up for so long
Long story but mainly lost everything up north when the steel mills laid off many thousands back in 82 when china was outselling the US on steel. Moved down here and fell in love with the country. Just not the people.  Good thing I’m not a people person. 
Lord Feltersnatch? 🤔
Could you tell me more?
The name given to trump after his leaked bus story of how he can just grab at women’s crotch’s.
Oh 😕
I was hoping a new god to worship had arrived from the Big Beautiful Sky.
Luckily you have a shitload of them sonsabitches to choose from. Be careful though, some of them fuck’en fuckers just want your money. Pert near a scam if you ask me but you didn’t ask me now did ya!
:)
Not to dox or anything, but are you per chance in Eastern Kentucky?
Western!
In Eastern at least the population density allows you to avoid them. Not so much western, most people congregate around in the few larger towns like Paducah.
All I can tell you is that them sonsabitches are all around me and until Lord Feltersnatch is gone they’re going to be complete assholes!
Trust me, I know what you mean.
Form someone across the pond: thank you. I can't believe people voting for that relic in want way. Thanks for not.
He was a pioneer of evil.
This guy dumped his political feaces all over America; Trump just smeared it all over the walls.
Sooner he’s forgotten about, the better.
Oh you just know he’s gonna get glazed in the obits
I hope his gravesite location is published.
Forgetting about him is the last thing we need to do. He's the immediate precursor to fascism. We need to learn how to spot the wolves before they take off their disguises.
May he receive the health care that he helped legislate for the poorest in this country
You have my prayers! 🙏💓
Just trip over the cord. No one’s going to care.
Oh no! Are they saying there's a chance he might survive? That's awful!
Somebody give him some lettuce!
HE NEEDS SOME MILK!!
TORTOISES DON'T DRINK MILK!
RIGHT!! WE SHOULD THROW HIM BACK IN THE POND BEFORE HE DRIES OUT!!
UPSIDE DOWN?
AND INSIDE OUT!
Fuck you for everything, Mitch.
Mitch sucks but his constituents are who kept him there.
If it hasn't been made clear that you can essentially buy an election by now...
Not that his voters don't bear some of the blame, but money helped put him in power and helped keep him there because he was profitable.
These days everything is about money, except money, which is about power.
You know what I want to do when I'm 84? Nap. Look at pictures of my grandkids and shit. Not be in any form of legislature.
But, because this fucking ghoul can't understand the appeal of properly enjoying the last years of your life, the rest of us will probably have to work ourselves to death so that he can die while still being in control of the country and make a bunch of other sociopathic asshats money.
Fuck you, Mitch. I hope it's painful and slow.
You clearly haven't become addicted to power.
What damn good is power if you spend your golden years grinding yourself into an undead shell?
I mean, yeah, I get that this is pathological on some level. But I'll never understand why you wouldn't have an exit strategy that allows you to enjoy the fruits of destroying a nation for at least a few years.
I'm not one of them. I'm a teacher. I can't pretend to truly understand it.
I hear you, it's an alien mindset.
Terrifying to think that our economy and government are rules by the pathology of people like this.
It would be a shit hospital if he wasn't.
😂 right?
Titles ain't what they used to be....
Genuinely thought he was already dead. Ruined my day to learn I was wrong.
I'm so sorry.
I also feel sorry for Death, he's been waiting for so long. 😔
I would be concerned or have sympathy, but using his own words he's a lame duck to the betterment of humanity
Thoughts…
That's enough to be honest...
It’s too much
One less vote.
Fucker doesn't deserve the medical WE ARE PAYING FOR
well, since he's still alive, I wish him the worst.
I hope he's suffering as much as possible.
🤞
Hope and prayers go out that his illness ends quickly and abruptly.
That guy deserves to suffer a long and painful death. One where he begs to end it but he won't have a say over what happens to his own body.
He needs to retire. Like, now. From his hospital bed.
Thots and prayers.
Lets hope it turns out different than Jonathan the tortoise
Oh no, I hope glitchy Mitch is okay.
Sure hope he can afford the copay.
