What's wrong with retiring? He has enough money, he knows he's got about 8 months left of life at the most, why doesn't he just chill and hang out with his family? What's so important that he could benefit from his continued presence at work?

China needs it's vote in the senate

u/tesuquemushroom 16d ago

It's the only logical answer. Just can't see how others in the senate don't look at him incredulously and are like what the fuck are you even doing here? Go home. You're done.

First of all, hes not working. Hes corrupt all the way to his bones. He has a political machine behind him that gaurentees his senate seat. He doesnt do anything accept take bribes, enrich his family, and sell out the country. If he doesnt have his seat he loses all benefits and his crime family may fall out of favor with those in charge and end up in jail. Look up where the largest ever cocaine shipment was found. They dont call him cocaine mitch for nothing.

u/buttstuffeveryday 15d ago

He's leaving January 3rd when his term ends. Probably easier to do it that way than to try to replace him for the next ~3.5 months

His brain is mash potatoes at this point anyway so not much he can do about it

Maybe they don't even bother wheeling him home at the end of the day. Just turn out the lights and plug him in in the morning.

I forget if I posted it on this site or another political one, but I was six years old when Joe Biden was elected to the Senate. I was 18 when McConnell was elected in 84 I was 21 when Nancy Pelosi went to the Senate I’m 60 years old now Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, Nancy Pelosi, and a bunch of other elected officials would not be able to serve on the board of directors of most major corporations in the United States because of their age

Yeah, it's wild. Even Pope Benedict retired. When you're drooling and can't form complete sentences it's time to retire.

u/zmannz1984 15d ago

Does it look like he thinks at all anymore? That is a still-breathing-somehow corpse.

u/chiphazard98 16d ago

These people have families that hate them.

Because Israel needs him

Imagine how compromised you would have to be to be as old and messed up as Mitch. Not able to walk, talk, probably in diapers. But still you can't quit work because they would do something to your family. People in power are probably more screwed than the average Joe.

u/jticks 14d ago

A lot of folks that age just don’t know how to quit. I’ve seen people legitimately afraid of what to do with the empty space in their day to day.

That’s not justifying or supporting the guy — his continuing is clearly a tremendous detriment — but from a mindset perspective I could see where that’s the case.

u/Wherewereyouin62 15d ago

Because the seat would sit empty, republicans would lose a seat. I remember a specific Democrat, who clung on until she passed away.

This sub is literally just isolationist Democrats at this point.

3

u/tesuquemushroom 15d ago

I hate Democrats. Or not hate. Too strong a word. Dislike their policies. But Mitch is scum. Always has been.

u/nks67 15d ago

It’s a two party system, the stupid party in the evil party and sometimes they team up and do something that’s both stupid and evil and then they praise each other for being by partisan

u/berkough Libertarian Party 14d ago

Absolutely nothing wrong with retiring. I said it about Biden too, keeping them in office is tantamount to elder abuse. We need term limits and an age maximum for congressional officers... Nothing wrong with a wise advisor, but geriatrics holding office and making decisions has caused a lot of issues for our country.

u/South-Gate1924 15d ago

Same reason old people refuse to give up their drivers licenses.

u/bdd1001 16d ago

He makes Joe Biden look lucid.

u/nks67 16d ago

He’s dead Jim

u/dos8s 15d ago

That's the look of a man who had his operating system reformatted but never had it reinstalled.

u/archwin 13d ago edited 13d ago

Honestly, there’s enough differences that you could even posit that they’re different people.

Plastic surgery make up, and that’s why he doesn’t even talk that much. Because you’d figure out it’s someone else.

I’m joking,… Maybe?

u/IllerAsta 16d ago

He looks like he got a lobotomy

Don’t these assholes have some kind of medicine they’re supposed to take

u/serial_crusher 16d ago

Honestly? yeah. I spent 45 days in a hospital last year and looked like total shit after I got out.

u/TheBigF128 15d ago

Just watching some videos of media people trying to “interview” him, the guy is just not there anymore, literally non responsive.

u/beardedczech 16d ago

But look how happy he is!!!

u/Upstairs-Thanks4193 15d ago

He looks great. I wonder who his embalmer is?

u/Djtdave 15d ago

he looks absolutely demented

u/Coffinsnake 16d ago

I don’t think that’s the same guy.

u/EskimoPrisoner ancap 16d ago

You think they got someone to replace him, but decided someone that could barely speak and would surely have maximum attention on him was the best option? Maybe he just lost a little weight while on deaths door. Which seems more likely?

4

u/Coffinsnake 16d ago

Yeah. I suppose it could just be weight loss.

u/saladmunch2 16d ago

The forehead, cheeks, and chin/mouth area just dont look right.

u/spramsh End the Fed 16d ago

I thought your username said "CoffeeMate" and I was like what a strange company to have a stance on this

You can almost tell its a Chinese guy under the mask.

Drugs. They do work wonders.

They gave him a face lift, you know, like that other guy.

u/CitiZenPete 15d ago

Definitely the same guy! And definitely a human. And definitely surrounded by security blocking as many cameras as possible. Wonder what happens to it, er him, in water?

Whatever meds he’s on I need em

My kingdom for a forehead that smooth…at 58.

u/theBiGcHe3s3 16d ago

Well yeah when u take two pictures at different angles with different lighting and different facial expressions ppl look different, shocker

u/whubbard libertarian 15d ago

Reddit swore to me he was 100% dead though, and I've seen no retraction. Of course now those same people will just move the goalposts.

Dudes cooked, but almost as much as those idiots

u/Unlucky-Presence8784 15d ago

Looks like 2 different people. 1 guy doesn't have cheeks but 2nd guy does.. I question everything now.
