A former aide to Hillary Clinton is sparking outrage for mocking Mitch McConnell for tripping on stairs – and not backing down when informed the Senate majority leader had polio as a child. Adam Parkhomenko, who also served as national field director for the Democratic National Committee in 2016, posted an old clip of McConnell falling onstage during a press conference. “Yesterday I posted this new found footage of Mitch McConnell standing up for America. 368,000 views overnight. Mitch McConnell does not want you to let this video get up to 1,000,000 views,” Parkhomenko wrote on Twitter on Thursday.

This is a carefully planned strategy.
The Obama campaign mocked McCain for not using email, knowing that his defenders would tell the whole world that the war left him disabled. They do this betting that the public will not accept disabled leaders.
Ditto that Falcon.
Boo.
Not the same sweetie.
He’s gay, Jim....
“Mitch McConnell does not want you to let this video get up to 1,000,000 views...”
Just another view-whore, only without the boobs or the class.
Hate Has No Home Here.
Choose Kindness.
Mocking McC has no effect. McC is entirely too effective and powerful. Too bad he is not really on our side.
Yeh, I’m sure Cocaine Mitch has heard it before. All I care about is how much of Trump’s agenda and appointments he gets passed. Sitting, standing, or laying on his ass matters not.
But we were told Hillary just had a cold and bad cough.
he’s a democrat right?
How would like to be known as a Hillary soldier?
What a rotten job.
Wonder if he has fast enough reflexes to dodge thrown ashtrays and lamps.
OMG! It’s Rex Luthor, Lex’s mentally challenged brother!
And then there’s the (proven false by Snopes, even) meme that McConnell received government funded care for his polio but wants to cut medicare.
Well, of course, it's not the same....to you or I.
But to the other side, Mitch is fair game to be mocked.
This ain't some sort of moral-equivalent social gathering. It's dirty partisan political skirmishes.
Besides, Mitch is a big boy. He can fight his own battles. He doesn't need our help.
The proper response would have been Mitch had Polio, Hillary is just a Drunk, accompanied with one of the multitude videos of her falling down.
Yes, McConnell, like ALL Bush League Republicans, needs to be replaced with someone who sides with the citizens and the rule of law.
Don’t want to derail this thread, but seeing this video again reminded me of how grateful I am it was filmed and sent out before Hillary and the MSM could stop it. There is no doubt Mrs. Clinton was hiding a serious illness, and this video may have swayed enough votes here and there.
So much for the Democrats being so much more caring and sensitive than those Republican brutes.
Democrats seem to have the patent on rudeness and disdain, and they run crying “Foul!” to the public every time the Republicans seem to be making an infringement on those patents.
Democrats are scum.
Hillary also has a disability. She can’t control her drinking.
