Probably not dumb enough (or capable) to make a speech in front of constituents.

I know they're Trumpettes, but they're not wrong.

Okay, who keeps messing with Moscow Mitch's pause button?

Mitch McConnell appears to freeze again while talking to reporters in Kentucky



A humiliating career end could not happen to a more deserving guy.

Hell, I might as well confess. It was me behind both these incidents.....I recently found a turtle on the riverbank and declared "ok, Mitch, you're coming with me." Since then I've been fooling around with the turtle and a strobe light. At a certain flash frequency (around twelve flashes per second) Mitch becomes completely paralyzed, nearly approaching a state of rigor mortis. I do not plan to cease this activity anytime soon.

Sen. McConnell's health episodes show no evidence of stroke or seizure disorder, Capitol doctor says

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell’s health episodes show “no evidence” of being a stroke or seizure disorder, the Capitol physician said in a letter on Tuesday, offering little further explanation for the apparent freeze-ups that have drawn concerns about the 81-year-old's situation.

McConnell’s office released the letter from attending physician Brian P. Monahan as the Senate returns from an extended summer break and questions mount over the long-serving Republican leader’s health. The GOP leader froze up last week during a press conference in Kentucky, unable to respond to a question, the second such episode in a month.

“There is no evidence that you have a seizure disorder or that you experienced a stroke, TIA or movement disorder such as Parkinson’s disease,” Monahan wrote, using the acronym for a transient ischemic attack, a brief stroke.

Seizures and TIAs don't necessarily leave behind "evidence" other than the observed symptoms at the time of their occurrence. That said, other options include:
Glitch in the matrix
Astral projection
Demonic possession
Time travel
Drug abuse

The doctor said the assessments entailed several medical evaluations including a brain MRI imaging and “consultations with several neurologists for a comprehensive neurology assessment.” The evaluations come after McConnell fell and suffered a concussion earlier this year.

“There are no changes recommended in treatment protocols as you continue recovery from your March 2023 fall,” the doctor said.

CTE can only be confirmed on autopsy.

... McConnell’s health has visibly declined since the concussion in March, after which he took some weeks to recover. His speaking has been more halting, and he has walked more slowly and carefully....

There's the diagnosis - He ain't right.

Paul challenges Capitol doctor’s diagnosis of McConnell as ‘clearly not accurate’

He's not wrong. Otoh, an ophthalmologist and eye surgeon's opinion may be less valid than that of an ER RN.

But he's likely right. Doctors say the strangest things to power, say 300 lbs is 215 and can the fat man can live to be 200.

Paul and I agree, Capitol doc Monahan’s letter does not make sense. GoCubsGo did a better job with Turtle "ain't right."
