The secretive notion of not telling the public what is happening?
Well, well see it again when Trump becomes incapacitated health wise!
Thus the GOBers prove that want to hold to their power at all costs!
Lies and holding back any real facts is what they truly believe in!
Oh, the people dont care is their motto!
Just have to wonder back into the archives where Reagan was president and his health issues were kept under wrap until the last days of his tenure.
Can you imagine if Democrats hid Biden from the public eye and didnt release any information about him?
Oh the hypocrisy of the GOBers stinks to high heaven!
As I said before, I wish no ill will to anyone, but these idiots are putting me into a position of not caring about them anymore!
It just shows how embarrassing this party really is and their inability to grasp reality. Power is only limited and idiocy is forever which the GOBers prove everyday!

(11,064 posts)As long as McConnell is incapacitated and not dead, Republicans have LESS power. When he dies or retires, a special election will be held which will almost certainly be won by a Republican (Republicans have won 10 straight Senate elections in Kentucky. Democrats last won 34 years ago). If holding on to power is the priority, then Republicans should want McConnell to die ASAP.

(26,234 posts)I have nothing to go on, and I guess that's the point. But they definitely should be called out on their hypocrisy. I wish no ill on anyone but an elected official owes his constituents an explanation under these circumstances.

(6,050 posts)reported that he was cognitively sharp and physically energetic, they were accused of covering up for him. Now the media reports with a straight face that people are reporting that they've spoken with McConnell.
All of our media sources treat Republicans differently from the way they treat Democrats. When people outside the country ask "how can Americans continue to support them?" the reason is because we have a corporate media that is, on average across the board, within the right/authoritarian quadrant of the political compass. Some are a little closer to the center than others but none of them cross over into true left or true libertarian. That's why the vast majority of our successful candidates are also in that quadrant.

Sure, the truth should be told about his actual condition. (because of his role in government and possible replacements)
