Back in July, Senator Mitch McConnell froze mid-speech at a news conference, leading many to question whether or not he is fit to serve.

But most got over it and moved on.

Until he froze again just a month later.

Ironically, this second incident happened while reporters were asking McConnell whether he was planning on running again.

By now, most of us have seen the video of McConnell going mute and staring like a deer in headlights. It’s truly a tragic situation.

However, most miss this one tiny detail in the video because they are so focused on what McConnell is doing (or shall we say not doing) that they don’t pay attention to what his aide does.

If you go back and watch the video closely, you’ll see McConnell’s aide wink at the sea of reporters as she says, “We’re going to need a minute.”

“I never noticed this in that second clip until I just saw it again,” says Isabel Brown. “His staffer actually winks at the camera … so it's this open joke that we're all aware of and everyone's thinking but nobody's willing to talk about it.”

But we should be talking about it, considering people like Mitch McConnell serve a vital role in the country.

Not to mention “70% of Americans think that the two front-runners for president are too old to be president,” says Isabel.

“McConnell has had so much power for so long,” adds Dave Rubin, “and yet in those freeze-up moments, and we've seen it with Biden too, there is this fear in there because he knows something is wrong, [but] the people around him don't care, and it becomes this self-fulfilling prophecy.”

Term Limits NOW: Mitch McConnell, It's Time to RESIGN

Mitch McConnell's latest freeze-up sheds light on a MUCH BIGGER issue

We talk a lot about politics on here, but when it comes to Sen. Mitch McConnell, politics need to be set aside.

Back in July, McConnell froze mid-speech at a news conference, and unfortunately, it wasn’t a one-time incident.

This past Wednesday in Covington, Kentucky, McConnell froze again when reporters asked him whether he was planning on running for re-election.

Like him or not, the man clearly has glaring health concerns that should prevent him from serving.

“This is not about politics. It's about our country,” says Glenn Beck. “For the love of Pete, resign.”

“The man is clearly suffering,” adds Stu Burguiere.

But Mitch McConnell’s unfortunate situation sheds light on a much bigger issue.

“It shows you the power of the machine,” says Glenn. “They'd rather have somebody like him who's no longer capable of doing it themselves because then they can just do what they want.”

But the reality is that term limits are “among the most popular policy proposals in our discourse— we're talking about 80% support across the board,” says Stu.

And Republicans are not the only ones who are pushing for policies that will prevent Mitch McConnell and Dianne Feinstein-like situations from happening; Democrats and Independents are as well.

Unfortunately, with the way things are currently set up, “Mitch McConnell could run today, and they'd still vote him in,” says Glenn.

Old people need to stop running our country

Mitch McConnell’s term runs through 2026, but many aren’t so sure he should be in office at all.

The internet was set ablaze yesterday when McConnell was recorded speaking to reporters at a press conference and then suddenly stopped speaking at all.

The Kentucky senator halted mid-sentence and appeared to stare blankly into the distance before stepping back from the podium and being led away.

“This is what happens when you stay in office forever,” Pat Gray comments, adding, “They’re hell-bent to drop dead in office.”

However, McConnell did make it back to the podium where he faced a few questions regarding what had happened.

A reporter asked McConnell what happened at the beginning of the press conference and earlier this year when he had suffered a concussion.

“I’m fine,” McConnell responded.

“You’re fully able to do your job?” The reporter pressed further.

“We’ve got so many of these situations in Congress. In the presidency, okay? Starts right at the top with Joe Biden. You’ve got Nancy Pelosi who’s been compromised. You have Dianne Feinstein who’s 90, and everybody admits that she’s deep into dementia of some sort,” Gray continues.

Even John Fetterman, who isn’t quite up there in age, has his issues.

Gray believes something needs to be done about this.

“It’s not good for the country. So, maybe we should take that into consideration. Start, I don’t know, being honest that you can’t stay in office indefinitely,” he says.
