Claims to be pro life.....
I can only wish he reaps exactly what he sowed.
If it makes you feel better, he absolutely hates trump, because Trump jumped the gun and now it will likely fail long term.
The stress of trump over the last decade, is likely what contributed to his heart attack and combined with Trump's rush job is why he won't live to see his plan come to fruitation.
People forget that, none of what's happening is Trump's plan, he latched onto an existing plan and insisted the timelines were drastically moved up. And that's probably what will save us, because if Paul Ryan had done half this shit as president it would have worked.
I also think COVID and AI have fucked up the planning by putting negative pressure on the stability of the social order. I would not be surprised if they are seen similar to the Antonine plague and economic stagnation of Rome.
None of whats happening indeed isn't the trumpanzees' plan, it is what capitalism produces and revolves around.
I doubt he has enough time left on this earth to reap much of it
We'll have to call it wishful thinking then I suppose
CPR on an 80 year old means his ribs no longer exist, so that’s nice.
I wonder if they tubed him. Then it's really over.
It's too late and he hasn't. He's sowed misery, hate and corruption and reaped money and power his whole life and now he's dying at a ripe old age with zero consequences. His legacy won't do well, but he himself has not had to suffer for all the destruction he's caused to our country, our reputation, and to democracy worldwide.
They're keeping the corpse on life support to avoid getting clobbered in another special election. I thought the governor appointed them but that changed now it's a special election.
You don’t perform CPR on people who are breathing. He was dead for a while before he was found. No one knows for how long. He probably is still dead, they just don’t want to announce it for purely political reasons.
He could have been resurrected. Happened to my great grandfather, he lived for another couple years after all the way to 92 though he was gone for too long and ended up degenerating for the last couple years. Funny enough he had to be physically stopped from just going at his cake on his 90th.
Let's hope this fuckwit is lacking in my the stubbornness of my great grandfather.
BREAKING NEWS
Washington sources report Zombie Mitch McConnell will return to the Senate...
They’re saving it for the big 250th so they can use the footage of all the celebrations.
That’s been the last decade at least of his role. His staff do everything and occasionally parade him out for photo-ops.
well let's hope his insurance deductible doesn't finish the job
/s
Does Congress still has healthcare paid by the public?
oh yes, I am certain he won't shed a penny for the absolute best care which may or may not bump people who need it more...
The American tax payers are happy to pick up the tab for Mitch but not for each other (if Mitch have anything to say about it)
Just in this one moment, I kinda wish they were right about the democrat death panels
Insurance companies are the death panels. I know you know this, but this needs to be a thing said out loud a lot.
He doesn’t have to deal with insurance. He gets free healthcare paid by the government.
I'm not talking about for him, I'm talking about us.
During covid, some hospitals had to resort to death panels basically when at ICU capacity with limited ECMO machines.
Eighty fucking four years old. You should be in a fucking old folks home, you dirty old bastard.
We need to enact age limits on our government, JFC. I wouldn't trust someone ten years YOUNGER to even drive safely, yet this turtle twat is a senator???
And has been for like 40 years
I never wish anyone dead, but don't expect me to shed tears over one of the architects of the destruction of the US.
I genuinely wish these malevolents death
I feel like anyone saying otherwise (who doesn’t already LIKE these guys) is just lying. How could you not? “Oh just keep destroying the lives of hundreds of millions as long as I’m on my high horse never wishing you death” that’s not the moral take people think it is.
Their death doesn't solve the underlying problem. The problems are systemic. If his death just means he's replaced by a similar asshole, that doesn't solve anything. Wishing each other dead is not going to fix anything.
But I also don't wish anyone dead out of principle. I oppose the death penalty out of the same principle.
I make one exception for Putin. He is the problem. His death would immediately prevent thousands of unnecessary deaths every day, in a way that Trump's or Netanyahu's death wouldn't.
I would prefer a prison cell, with locked in syndrome a close second.
I wish plenty of people dead.
It's likely he's dead and they're hiding the fact. Can you imagine the jubilee that would happen today if it was reported he died, especially on Trump's birthday?
Dead mitch is dead.
I hope it was painful, this man is as responsible as Reagan for all this misery and suffering.
*best read in the voice of sir David Attenborough
As EMS arrived they found McConnell had been flipped onto his shell, with his legs flailing the responders were able to flip him back.
Controversy surrounds his age of 84 years old, but others of his species have lived in captivity up to 150 years old.
His Kentucky Republican breed is well known for not only surviving on the typical Republican diet of banks, oil and gas, and occasional telecommunications companies, but also has a diet supplemented from his wife's income streams of insider informed stocks.
"Mitch McConnell found unconscious" ... How could they tell?
I got all excited til I saw the part about "last month". I don't wish death on many, but boy will I be happy once all these geriatrics in my government kick the bucket.
so he’s either already dead or just braindead mush with a heartbeat
if they hide his death until less than ninety days before election he can’t be replaced until mid-terms
of course you know they're gonna try that shit
Just let go Mitch
Bro has been freezing up like a YouTube video on dialup for years now. There is simply no way that he is "clearly dialed in".
Gross
Groß if true
he's not going to die until they find all the phylacteries
I know this trick!
Someone go blow up the moon.
More than just a couple decades too late
About eight decades.
If only they found him late.
If it helps, proper CPR breaks the ribs andis very traumatic. Being old as fuck, Bitch Mcconnel is guaranteed to be in a lot of pain
Not only that but CPR...is less than 10% success rate. I think it goes up a bit if you're in a hospital already, but if you're having CPR done, you're chances of survival is not super great.
Rest in piss, shitbag
2nd cardiac event Elderly Required CPR.
Actual chance of coming back to work is low single digit percentage points. Time for new Senate majority leader.
Much lesser chance than that. Survival rates after CPR are less than 10% for adults.
Yeah, movies make you feel like if you have a heart attack, they'll get you back, but in reality 90% chance you don't survive. Sometimes they can get your heart beating, but you still don't come back, because no oxygen to the brain for too long.
Not to mention that if an 84 year old man received chest compressions, he absolutely has at least one, likely several, broken ribs.
All these people act like kings, barons, and counts wanting to die on the throne.
c
ounts *Shoulda happened 20 years ago
Yeah, I agree. But better late than never
i'm so fucking tired of this bastard.
he's responsible for a lot of my misery and i want him out of it.
damn. ambos should have taken their time.
These fucks are going to life support this fuck until after August 1st.
I hope he suffers every bit as much as he has caused.
I am extremely confused because I could have swore this happened previously and I guess I was right. Second heart attack in a month. The police need to be called as well as the FBI. They are torturing a senile senior senator for political gain. The fact that his family is allowing this is extremely telling about the type of people they are.
With that said I hope they’re water boarding him too
And remember a few years ago this fucker also made so that if he left office for health reasons they have to appoint a Republican to replace him instead of having the choice to put either a Republican or Democrat in office.
Soon
Too little, too late, unfortunately.
Na man. You gotta have some kinda faith in the future. Yeah he set us back decades, but it's never too late to be better.
In 1976 I was painting fire hydrants in American flag themes for the bicentennial, 50 fucking years later we have zero progress and we've in fact actually gone fucking backwards. So, what was it Ben Franklin said about hope and dying farting?
The kids did that in Anaheim, where I grew up. Today they're hiding from ICE.
God keeps trying to send this guy to hell... why do these so called religious people keep stopping God's will?
Thoughts and prayers.
I hope he's dead!
I hope he is gone. He has done more harm to the United States of America, than maybe anyone else in the last 15 years.
You would think all of these medical events would knock the shell off the turtle and prompt an early retirement. Nope. I wish him the worst.
Your ride awaits, Moscow.
New gender neutral bathroom in 3...2...
Gonna lie, wish him all the best
Assumed this was upliftingnews.
Mason Verger-looking motherfucker
Back in your shell, turtle-demon.
EDIT:
Well shit, apparently, he is brain dead.
I guess he won't be coming out of his shell... ever again.
Mhmm.
The man is 84 years old.
Quit wasting tax payer money in this vile fucking ghoul
Oh, so what should we be paying the CIA for? Let them play with their thumbscrews just a little longer. There's no harm in it this time.
