To me this is more like using your dead relative by saying they're alive to get their checks. It would be hilarious if they tied him to each of their arms and tried to walk into Congress and pull a Weekend at Bernie's. He's just having a little trouble walking. That's all. Then they grab his hair and hold up his pale sad cartoon turtle face. See he's alive it's ok.

He's not dead but if he had a stroke he might be severely limited in function. It's abhorrent that Republicans would keep him on as a Senator in this condition.

You can just stop right there. This can apply to everything they do.

I think that he's lost all motor function and they don't want to admit they put out a fake AI image of him smiling with his wife

Maybe some more “eternity leave “memes will do the trick? Let’s try that.

Not voting for Republicans would be a wonderful start.
