It's good to take a moment to relax every now and then.

It makes me mad at myself, but his fear and confusion in that moment was cathartic. You have to hurt a lot of people eyes wide open to actually deserve the suffering of witnessing your own mind and sense of self crumbling from the inside, but Reagan was and McConnell is on that list.

We at least got to witness him experience a tiny sliver of the shame, pain, and terror of the Americans he inflicted his cruelty on for decades with a shit eating grin so he could cut his own taxes and that of his country club friends on the backs of hard working, struggling human beings.

No sympathy for the devil. I'll remember you this way, Mitch. Now go fade away you spooky, sociopathic fuck.

huh what happened
- He just glitched out I guess. Didn't die.....
Shitty sentiment
- Trash belongs in the bin.
- Mitch is a shitty traitor.
- Ah yes, what about civility, right?

Mitch lost his wifi connection and needed to be rebooted

Nah, he's a very old model.
His 28.8k modem finally burned out. You can almost hear the "Pshhhkkkkkkrrrrkakingkakingkakingtshchchchchchchchcch" in the background when he goes silent.
- They took him away to reboot the disney animatronics he's been running on since the early 90's.
- LMAO
(Power saving mode)
Boot device not found. Please install an operating system on your hard disk

Everyone speculating it was a stroke, but he might have just realized he shit his pants. He is old, either explanation seems likely.

Goodness I hope it’s nothing minor!

He almost looked human for a minute.

I can't see it, do I need to cross my eyes or something like one of those optical illusion images?

- It's a sailboat!

What is the context behind this? Did I miss something bad that happened to this asshole?

He fell in public a few weeks ago too, but this just happened. Circling the drain finally.
- Now we just need Kissinger to die sorry.
- good morning
He apparently blanked out while speaking - folks are speculating it was a stroke.
- You definitely see the moment something happens, but this seems too subtle for a stroke.
- Here's hoping it's a severe one.
He had a mini stroke or something on the podium today
- Thoughts and prayers that he’s suffering 🙏
- Maybe a TIA?
Yeah he apparently started making a statement to the press and only got about 5 words in before freezing and going blank, a classic show of senility.

Take a moment to realize these are the people who run your country. They should have been sent to a retirement home years ago.

Well maybe it's time for 81 years old ppl too take politics seriously and leave it to the younger generation...

Hope this old POS never has another coherent thought again.

..."It was not a fart... Definitely not a fart"...

Moscow Mitch

《 ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL 》

Why does his face remind me of a Blob fish ?

Maybe you haven't studied enough turtle faces?

turtle man

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy

I hope his rabbit is doing fine.

This should be a loading gif

Some of the comments in this thread really show how quickly both sides are to dehumanize one another.

edit:

Dehumanizing fascists is morally acceptable.
- sounds familiar
Tolerance is a peace treaty, them wishing for and enacting policies that would lead to the deaths of people like me and the people I love means that my ability to tolerate them is gone.
I will happily read this guy's obituary and the obituaries of his cohorts.
Mitch dehumanized himself through a lifetimes work stifling progress and assisting in the deaths of thousands.
Take your "both sides" bullshit and gtfo
"both sides" is the fastest giveaway of a bad faith troll lately. At least the unapologetic conservatives don't pretend to take the moral high ground
- it seems pointing out destructive discourse is considered “troll” behavior now. i have learned another thing today, thank you.
He is a human whose obituary I will read with great pleasure.
But that's a turtle.
- Actually an insult to turtles but i get your point
I said something along the same line on Mastodon and got eaten alive all because I refuse to celebrate a moment like this. I despise the guy, but I won’t lower myself to celebrating a possible stroke.
Really bugs me too. It's vulgar and mean-spirited. I say this as a transfem who is an explicit target of discriminatory republican policies.
Making fun of someone because they're old is unacceptable. That's civility 101, if you claim to be a democrat and do this kind of thing you're a fraud imho
