Subject: Is something wrong with Mitch McConnell?
Some questions:
1. WHy is he going on a stage when he knows this can happen?
2. If he's not competent to do his job, who is doing his job for him?
3. Why does he look like muppet?

The problem is - they will die in office these people. Nobody wants to give up that nice life. The other problem ironically is that I don't think there's a will to serve in public office anymore.

I think we're screwed until all of them croak in office.
The young people are no different. In fact, many of them are just as bad and with worse behavior: Boebert, Greene, Jordan are just a few. What we need is get money out of politics and for Americans to stop treating government as a WWF show but serious work for serious people.

It was bad before citizens United but now it’s out of control.
I also wonder about standards of journalism. News articles should not be breathless. They should simply report facts and a reader should be unable to guess the journalist’s political leanings. This shouldn’t translate into mindless both sides either. Just simple straightforward reporting instead of click bait headlines and emotional diatribes.

“…and for Republicans to stop treating government as a WWF show…” would be far more accurate. One party is playing financial brinksmanship for likes again.

You know who Mitch is married to? That explains it all... much like Jill and the rest of them.
Jill is nothing like Elaine Chao.
+1 PP should read Wikipedia about Ms. Chao and her parents. Impressive and intinidating.

For all the people that think Biden is a “demented ret*rd” (their words), this is what being demented actually looks like. Your guy in charge is sunsetting.
