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.
yeah I’d feel real bad for anyone this happened to… but Mitch?
I hope he’s tripping locked-in syndrome hard. His handlers aren’t doing him any favors, at this point it’s getting a very creepy weekend-at-bernie’s feel.
Diane Feinstein (who was awesome, but…) and Mitch both need to sail off to a hospice. If their people truly loved them, they’d let them retire.
I agree. They both need to retire, along with some others. Leaving us with the young insane ones.
