Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell appeared to freeze again Wednesday, this time during a gaggle with reporters in Covington, Kentucky, stopping for more than 30 seconds after he was asked if he would run for re-election.
The Kentucky Republican froze in July at a news conference on Capitol Hill, going silent for 19 seconds before being escorted away from the cameras. McConnell, 81, returned shortly afterward and continued his news conference, telling reporters, “I’m fine.”
When it became apparent that McConnell had frozen again on Wednesday, an aide came up to him and asked, “Did you hear the question, senator?” McConnell continued to be unresponsive.
The grossest part is all the people covering up for him “he sounds like his usual self” like America needs a geriatric octogenarian in such a position of power. This guy can’t even speak to a small group of people without his handlers taking charge and masking the issue. Seems gross but I still see him winning reelection.
They keep each other in power and actively try to push younger generations from gaining real traction. Won’t stop until they all pass sadly
Weird. Diane Feinstein has the same issue and she doesn’t have many apologists.
It’s almost like there is a cult that has foRmed around some gRoup.
The only reason she’s still on the committee too is because Republicans refuse to let Democrats vote on a replacement.
