Why do they comply? For continued access to a house of lies? They could do better reporting from outside the White House if they just had one fucking spine between them.
ngl, between the secrecy, extended duration, strokes on camera, blatant medical issues, and old-man fall, I'd be more inclined to believe its some fucking animatronics or someone wearing some quality prosthetics than him remaining alive under his own power, at best I doubt he can do anything more than look like an animatronic muppet and breathe.
Nah, it is him, and he is breathing unassisted. But that's about as far as it gets. He can move his arms a little. But yeah, mentally he's almost completely gone. A live puppet, no more agency of his own.
There’s a clip circulating of him just staring blankly with a sort gaping grin on his face. Reminds me of that DC politician character from parks n rec
Not really, considering we literally just saw him alive and well a couple days ago at the September 11th memorial while Donnie was caught snoozing during his. But hey, I get it. You got mouths to feed and so you get paid to say stupid shit online. At least I hope you are getting paid to be stupid, cause if not.....
I mean … I voted for Biden, but he’s legitimately not doing much better right now. Stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer + dementia means we’ll probably have another state funeral soon (if Trump doesn’t do some bullshit to block it) ._.
And you agree with the comment that the McConnell clip above "reminds you of Joe Biden?" The dude's still perfectly coherent & aware and would've been doing a far better job than any of these motherfuckers, AND YET he chose to step down, which... *gestures at McConnell*
He was purposely rolled into an area directly outside the Senate Chamber because video recording is prohibited under Senate Rules. People need to learn or brush up on their Critical Media Literacy instead of posting misinformation and half-truths.
The people of Kentucky deserve exactly what they've been voting for for the past 40 years. If they wanted full time and capable senators they wouldn't have elected McConnell and Paul.
And who says I'm self righteous? That's the meaning YOU are assigning to my words. Your inability to read my tone does not mean that's my tone. You should learn the difference.
This isn't like Fetterman where he changed. McConnell has been the same piece of shit for decades. If they wanted better they'd primary him.
Why do you think Republican primary results are a useful datum here?
Republicans in KY has also disenfranchised hundreds of thousands of voters, imposed onerous Voter ID requirements targeting non-white communities, and lots of other things that absolutely suppress the vote and make your claim McConnell is beloved and popular and the people of KY deserve this doubtful.
If Republicans wanted someone else they'd stop voting for him in the primary. 2020 they had how many options?
And I never said he was beloved and popular. If you're gonna make stupid shit up, do it in the shower. Making up dumbass arguments doesn't help your aims. At all. It just makes you look silly.
Aren't Republicans mostly white? And I love the "other things I'm not going to talk about" category. That's called a trash can, where the rest of your argument belongs.

It's almost like reporters are barred from recording video in that location, no matter who's sitting there in a chair, wheeled or not.
They could agree to follow the rules, or they wouldn't be let in. It's not that hard to understand. https://radiotv.house.gov/for-gallery-members/rules-for-electronic-media-coverage-of-congress

This is at the Capitol, about 2 miles away from the White House, and an entirely different branch of the US Government.
