President Biden said Wednesday he plans to call Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) after the leader appeared to freeze up while taking questions from reporters.

The incident, which happened in Covington, Ky., is the second time in recent weeks that McConnell has abruptly stopped speaking during a press conference.

“I just heard, literally, coming out. And Mitch is a friend, as you know, not a joke,” Biden said during remarks at the White House on the Hurricane Idalia response. “We have disagreements politically, but he’s a good friend.”

“So, I’m going to try to get in touch with him later this afternoon. I don’t know enough to know,” Biden added.

McConnell, Feinstein, Fetterman and last but not least Biden. This doesn’t look good for the average citizen.

Natural consequence of having your government masquerade as a geriatric ward.

Strike that, reverse that.

“Not a joke” means he’s lying.

These two sick politicians should get together and share a bed in a rest home.

Two peas in a pod.

That is really a strange thing to say. What if Mitch was sitting down enjoying a bowl of jello and heard this on TV. What would Mitch think? Maybe he'd lash out at those around him. Grab a cane and start swinging.

Biden will start talking about his Corvette that suddenly stalls occasionally, comparing it to a seizure.

The Senate never got rid of their 19 Century brass spittoons, so that helps keep the drool problem under control.
