He’s got to delete all his files before he retires.

I bet pre-hospital TurtleMan looks completely different from tomorrow's post-hospital TurtleMan.

That kind of evil usually manages to claw its way back. Driven by very dark forces.

He’s 81 years old. I think he’s been in government since he was 17.

Mitch is probably expected to enter the senate chambers and have all the republicans give him a standing ovation and a hearty cheer, ‘celebrating’ his return after serious illness.
I’m sure Kevin McCarthy and Lindsey Graham will be whooping it up, so overjoyed at the return of their Dear Leader.

Yep. Generational wealth, for their entitled families…all, on the backs of the US Taxpayer.

It was NEVER meant to be like this.

yeah. The width/height ratio is off between them.

Make the right head height 82% of what it is here and they’ll look pretty much the same.

Hmm...

Ah, but it would be worth it to get rid of McConnell.

No. Kentucky has a state law that a U.S. Senator must be replaced by a member of the same party.

Yes, he already sold out Republicans more than once, undermined them last election, so losing him now to a Democrat really makes no difference.
