I hope he survives. I hope he continues to live a long, long time. I hope this happens to him frequently during that time.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Hopefully he'll get fitted with one of those hellish automatic home defibrillators. You know, because every life is worth fighting for till the very end, for as long as humanly possible. Mitch's life is especially worth it.
That could be pretty effective, but nothing beats manual CPR. At a certain point, someone's hands are going to collapse into a pile of bone dust.
they would put his head in jar if they could.
Let's give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe the CPR was performed on one of his victims instead. I just assume his house is full of slaves and hostages because that's the American GOP way.
Moscow Mitch: You'll never truly experience the equivalence of the pain and damage you've done to this country in the name of corruption and blind party loyalty. Still, I'm glad you'll be gone soon...
Better dead and harmless than alive and a menace
What does it matter? His whole life he's been a demented asshole. Nothing has changed. He's still a demented asshole and a perfect representation of the republican party. I hope they broke his ribs during CPR.
When the KY Governor went Dem the KY Cons tried to strip his ability to appoint vacant Congress seats. This was overturned in court.
However they did add a rule that the Governor could not replace someone within 95 days of an election.
95 days before 11/3/2026, the midterms, is 7/31/2026. I imagine they will use the "he's recovering" line until 8/1/2026 so the Cons have tighter control over congress. Or at the very least, they are trying to chew up as much time as possible before he gets replaced.
They call him Mitch the Cocaine Turtle for a reason.
Just fucking retire already!
Big question: Why'd you save his traitor ass?
Why won't these evil fucks just die?
Rest in gender neutral piss
I was unaware piss was gendered....
I’m of the belief his grave will become a gender neutral bathroom? Is this not a correct line of logic
Oh it absolutely will be a gender neutral bathroom. I guess i read it differently thinking piss had some gender associated to it i was not aware of.
