    All these pieces of shit live so long because they’re afraid of atoning for their piles of crimes and lies and deceit. Rest in piss to the likes of Rumsfeld, Cheney and everyone else responsible for exploiting the ignorant to drag this country down.

      The champagne in my fridge is reserved for Trump, but I guess I would make an exception for him.

      *to celebrate Trump’s passing, relax 😂

      Oh noes! Not another stroking-out geriatric retainer of the status quo about to need a special election in his district! That can’t be good for the powers desperately trying to claw some survival plan out of a burning railcare of dumpsters heading towards a cliff!

    “He is in regular contact with his staff and looks forward to returning to Senate business.”

    Just fucking retire, you despicable old cunt.

    McConnell, the Senate’s third-oldest member,

    WHAT?!? There’s 2 senators older than him.

    He plans to retire from Congress when his current term concludes in January 2027.

    He wont live that long

      My theory is somewhere deep inside himself he knows that once he loses access to his power and position, and the obsequious self-assurance it provides, all that’s left will be to confront the abject moral abyss that is his soul. So he’s just trying to die ignorant and shameless in office.

      Bernie Sanders is a year older than him and Chuck Grassley is 92 fuckin’ years old. Sad to say that he isn’t even the oldest senator to have ever served

    To those putting on their dancing shoes… there’s no point. He already did all the damage. Short of going back in time nothing will fix what he’s done. Unfortunately.

      His death doesn’t reverse things, but the world will still be a better place without his presence.

        I kinda think the world is better without him welding even the slightest bit of power over any other human, but I’d be okay in that instance with him living another dozen or so years to experience the consequences of his decisions along with the rest of us.

        Perhaps with luck, his medical bills will bankrupt him in the same way that he’s made it possible for so many others to be bankrupted.

      It’s fine, no looking back, lets just cross our fingers, toes and everything else for a special election in his district.

      We will never repair even a fraction of the damage done to our country by him and his ilk, but I will still be happy to see him go and have a chance for someone, anyone new having a chance of seizing representation.

      We can’t just wallow in misery, we have to celebrate good things and even just potential good things or there’s no point to life at all.

    I wouldn’t get your hopes up just yet. Some turtles can easily live for over a hundred years.
