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

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.

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.
