Age limits on elected servants?

Come on Mitch, it’s time to suck jello through a straw at Del Boca Vista.

Wonder if a power down/ power up sequence restarted him?

I hope I have my faculties about me when I’m that old to at least realize the cheese has slipped off the cracker and it’s time to yell at clouds.

No argument from me.
I have no idea what would make anyone want to stay in politics. Military and Federal LEOs have mandatory age limits. Of course people keep voting for them for some reason.

Have you seen the video floating around of the women in green. The instant she walks up and touches him he freezes. I've watched it several times and it seems strange to me. It's like he had a kill switch.

Or she might have been the one that could suck a golf ball through a garden hose and his mind clicked back..

Okay that was weird. First I've heard of it.

Not a physician but that looked like a TIA, transient ischemic attack is a temporary period of symptoms similar to those of a stroke. A TIA usually lasts only a few minutes and doesn't cause permanent damage.

People keep voting for them because of name recognition, they bring in stuff for their district, or the voters don't want the alternative.

Nevermind that the elected representative is a spineless, feckless, unprincipled weasel who only cares about keeping themselves in power, and doesn't really care about the country or their constituents.

And the people are to blame for re-electing them.

Anyone want tickets for a Joe Biden / Mitch McConnell / Nancy Pelosi / Dianne Feinstein cage fight?

[Bamaak]

Feinstein is worse. She was supposed to vote the other day and when they called her name she started reading some gibberish. Finally some guy leans over and tells her just vote aye. And she did. Of course then there is joe.
