GOP Senators Weigh ‘Special Meeting’ on Leadership After Doctor Suggests McConnell May Be Experiencing Small Seizures

GOP Senators are weighing a ‘special’ meeting on their leadership after McConnell’s latest freezing incident.
81-year-old Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is “medically clear” to continue work after he froze up for the second time within the last month on Wednesday.
And this is just what we have seen in public. Certainly, McConnell is having these episodes in private as well.
McConnell was holding a press conference in Covington, Kentucky on Wednesday when he went into a catatonic state.
Mitch McConnell temporarily froze and was unable to speak. An aide came to his rescue and promptly ended the press conference.
Late last month McConnell became unresponsive and stared blankly during a Senate press conference.
As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor reported, McConnell suffered a concussion and a broken bone after a fall in March. He was hospitalized and did a stint in rehab before returning to the Senate in mid-April.

I wonder if they're going to force him to step down.

Republican Leadership is an oxymoron.

They’ll replace him with another globalist RINO.

Perhaps, but if he can't continue to serve, then McTurtle can't vote, and maybe we get a MAGA Republican in the Senate.

"May be"?
"MAY BE???"
As Illustrious Dear Leader says, "C'mon, man. What a bunch of malarkey."

If Mitch goes will they pick another old worn-out Leader ?
To: Macho MAGA Man
Notice that they're wringing their hands over McConnell but no Republican is demanding that Dianne Feinstein retire, and she's in worse shape than the Turtle is.
I hate McConnell's guts too, but this crap needs to be called out on the Democrat crypt-keepers too.

He’s most likely not having seizures but mini strokes

The Kentucky governor is threatening to ignore the law and appoint a Democrat, then dare the Republicans to take him to court.

I had a year or two of various seizures then I had a grand mal. He very well could be having absence seizures.

Hours before my grand mal, I had a seizure where I was awake, but frozen. Could not move or talk.

Thune would be McConnell’s preferred successor.

This would easily be resolved, if Mitch resigned as minority leader. Then would be no need to have meetings and figure out what to do with him.
Does Mitch have the presence of mind to understand that his health is declining, and he should step aside?
