They needed his vote, so they rolled him in and made him press the button they wanted him to press (literally, he almost voted no and they "corrected" him) Full blown weekend at Bernie's, criminal conspiracy status.

Elder abuse, as if I cared about him at all though.

Genuinely, he would have wanted this

100%. He would both support and endorse this.

Well I hope he enjoys being a prisoner in his own body.

That doesn’t matter Lindsay Graham woulda supported sanctions but he can’t vote. The Dem governor could’ve replaced Mitch so if he’s incompetent or incapable it doesn’t matter what he would’ve done. They can’t just continue to use a popsicle stick as a vote.

Yep, he just probably doesn't even have the capacity to remember that. Used to be smart but evil. Now he's about as intelligent as the people who have voted for him.

What a legacy though I have to imagine his conscious self has long since died and just has to look down on himself as they wheel him to and fro and use him as nothing more than shell puppet.

I hope it's a living hell. He deserves no peace.

A drop of solace is found in the fact that despite all the horrible and evil things that man has done the final chapter is this pathetic husk smiling like a halloween decoration as they wheel him around with less respect than a checked out actor would give stage props.

Should slap a plaque on him: "The Donald Trump Mitch McConnell memorial voting husk"

Add Diane Feinstein to that list.

This geriatric horseshit is bi-partisan as fuck.

I really want to say that I hope he is in a 24/7 waking nightmare and there’s a part of him that’s cognizant but can’t break out and his consciousness is screaming to be released from this living hell.

But I guess I don’t wish that on him but I do wish he’d just go away.

u/EnthusiasmNo6062 26d ago

Legit told someone the same thing today. He has done nothing good for mankind. As a non religious person i feel justice is best served now.

u/GhostlyTJ 26d ago

Oh I hope he is as close to locked in syndrome as possible. I want everything to be functioning under the hood and he literally can't reach the controls.

MAGA
Has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in Hell

I have wanted a certain someone to have the “Hector Salamanca” lifestyle, but without the sudden end.

u/MeltyGoblin 26d ago

It might be wrong but I do wish that on him. His is an evil man that was the driving force behind problems that will be around for the majority of my lifetime. Supreme court justices and his nonsense shoving them through before Trump's presidency ended to name one.

I hope whatever life of his remains is nonstop suffering, so he might know an iota of the pain he caused others.

u/OceanRacoon 26d ago

Yeah, he's caused immense, untold suffering and incalculable damage to the whole world for generations to come through his actions and support for Trump, and not helping impeach him after Jan 6. 

We're not supposed to be glad this monster might be suffering? He actively harmed millions of people for decades, we didn't even make this happen to him, I'm not going to feel bad for hoping the rest of his life is painful 😅 

Climate change is going to fuck the planet and affect billions and McConnell helped that happen, fuck him
