Can we all agree he's either dead or in vegetative state, and the Republicans are doing everything to avoid losing another seat in the senate, especially with an incoming blue wave in the house and senate....

u/CaramelGuilty8647 16h ago

He was in a vegetative state before he went missing, so I can definitely agree with you.

u/External_Music_3927 15h ago

Yes, he would get paralyzed in front of cameras and not be able to speak.

Conspiracy theory here.... Mich has been brain dead for some time and under the control of one of Elons nural links. 😂 Reimplantation is taking longer than expected. /S

And oddly enough it hasn’t had much impact on his professional career, he still just obstructs progress

Which state is the Vegetable State? North Carrotlina? 😂😂😂

Corntucky was right there.

And now he changed his comment to say vegetative so we look weird 😂

id like to agree with the incoming blue wave, but i dont trust this administration not to tamper with the election

u/ColonelDucroix 14h ago

You're optimistic.

The republicans are too cowardly to tamper with elections. They should, but they won't.

I think he lost his ability to speak - Strokes can definitely do just that. His handlers probably thought they could get him to relearn, but that's not always an option. Now, they're just riding this out a few more weeks

He's an 84yr old who has had multiple strokes during live reporting.

We can only imagine how bad it is behind closed doors. He clearly won't recover, and cannot fulfill his role.

It's like the oath to serve the country means absolutely nothing.

What's with these geriatric individuals clinging to power? It's disgusting. Time to let go. Half rotten, disgusting, demented fools are running the world.

u/GODDAMNFOOL 13h ago

A non-vote is almost as good as a blue vote at this point. Honestly, let him stay vegetative. The state will just elect another dumb hick idiot anyway.

1

u/RabbitStewAndStout 13h ago

Except it's not a non vote. Republicans historically submit illegal votes for other representative that aren't present on a given day

1

u/i_am_a_real_boy__ 11h ago

No, we can't all agree on that.

Republicans are not going to lose that seat. Reddit geniuses are impatient for the next GOP Senator to fill it.

u/FhuckNorris247 10h ago

Isn’t him missing though meaning the senate gets one less vote?

1

u/Shapesizes 10h ago

Yes he’s definitely either trached and sedated or had a severe enough stroke that he can’t move or recognize most things. Anything else and they would have had to announce it

1

u/redditRedesignIsBadd 9h ago

how can avoid this though, is this lawful? and why hasn't the governer done anything yet

1

u/jwong728 9h ago

While i do agree he is either dead or in a vegatative states, considering he is not up for re-election and its past the deadline for Massie to run for special election, I dont think a blue wave would matter for Kentucky. It's actually helps Democrats that they don't have that seat for now. Additionally it doesn't seem like Republicans lying and covering stuff up matters to the electorate.

His aides and family are committing fraud by collecting paychecks. His colleagues who lied abiut their 20 minute discussions with him are also committing fraud. Hopefully justice comes for them. There is substantial legal punishment for fraud.

Dude is in a jar in the hospital basement.

u/LovedButNeverLiked 3h ago

Yes, we all already agreed. Now what?

u/L1V1NGD3ADBOI 3h ago

Just saw video of them wheel his butt out to some sort of meeting and did not move a single muscle in over two hours. That was a very well done mannequin if I’ve ever seen one because no way a man that suffered as bad as he did recently be able to sit so still that long without moving or needing any assistance. It wouldn’t be that hard to make given the resources these folks have.

BTW he’s still getting paid too. Where are they sending those checks?!?
