Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) was interrupted repeatedly by jeers during a breakfast speech in Kentucky Saturday, for what appeared to be the entirety of his appearance. While the Commonwealth Journal describes how McConnell “arrived to a prolonged standing ovation,” he was soon met with boos as McConnell told the crowd he and his wife, Elaine, were “really excited to be back” at the 143rd Annual St. Jerome Fancy Farm Picnic, where almost 20 Democratic and Republican speakers appeared. McConnell, however, appeared to bear the brunt of the crowd’s ire, with chants including “shame on you,” “retire,” and “lost the Senate,” ringing around the packed arena as he spoke. McConnell, seemingly unperturbed, powered on without acknowledging the hostile reception. “Well, this is my 28th Fancy Farm, and I want to assure you, it’s not my last,” McConnell added, confirming speculation he was not retiring anytime soon after recent concerns surrounding his health.
Age limits please
You know this ruling member of our gerontocracy just took his fucking hearing aids out before speaking.
Oh, he’s still alive then. Maybe his next stroke will do the trick.
Your avatar could not possibly be more fitting
I can’t see the avatar on my app. Can you describe it or post a screen shot?
I can’t upload a screenshot unfortunately, but it’s basically this one.
Did he pop his head into his turtly shell?
Fuck Kentucky politicians
Good
Oh, the smile just reading the headline put on my face.
