HARTFORD — Connecticut U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy has tested positive for coronavirus, he said Wednesday.

The Democrat announced Wednesday that he tested positive for COVID-19 and reluctantly had to postpone his one-week “Walk Across Connecticut.”

“Argh. I was super excited to start my annual Walk Across Connecticut today, but I started getting some mild COVID symptoms last night. I tested this morning and I’m positive,” Murphy wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Will reschedule the walk for later this year. So bummed.”

Murphy, 50, began his annual walk in 2016 as a way to visit off-the-beaten path places and hear from constituents.

It was reported that a bureaucrat had a runny nose which can only mean one thing: PANIC!

The worst cold I have ever had was when I was 18 and it was summer, god the mucous would never stop.

Then 1 and half year later I got a nasty flu, where fluids were being projected profusely from the two major orifaces at the same time.

Thank god I have not anything nasty since.

Chris could still participate in “Long Walk Off A Short Pier”. It’s a “benefit”. For all of us! ;-)

I do, I want to see how this movie ends! Enjoy the show. Military is in control. Trump will get reinstated and all the Deep State will be executed after Military Tribunals.

Trump will lose again. It will not be as close as was last time. He will blame his loss on fraud again and go to prison. If he lives long enough, he may get pardoned out in 2029 after incumbent Harris is defeated but maybe not if state charges don’t get overturned by SCOTUS.

Time to stop being pollyannish about what the country has become and pretending like your storybook ending is preordained by the almighty. This election is easily winnable or losable, and our side seems determined to lose it.

Well as Paul Harvey would say, the rest of the story.

My mother was hosting a dinner party that night, and they probably heard me puking and sh!tting, luckily I made it to the toilet, and the sh!t was there, but the vomit did not make it to the faucet tub, and it was a mess. I cleaned it up with toilet paper, went down stairs and got a Coke to rehydrate myself and went to bed.

Next day I felt pretty good.

“Murphy, 50, began his annual walk in 2016 as a way to visit off-the-beaten path places and hear from constituents.”

...all he’s been hearing from constituents lately is
-I got robbed
-Shoplifting is outta control
-I stepped in human poop on the sidewalk the other day
-I got jumped by yuutes
-you suck

so...it’s time to take a little break!
