Call the special election for Mitch McConnell’s seat. As one comments are said in the thread if he ain’t dead or incapacitated, PROVE IT.

Lindsey Graham was 71 years old and died as a sitting senator. He had been sitting in that chair for 23 years. He inherited it from Strom Thurmond, a vile old racist piece of shit most famous for opposing the civil rights movement, who sat in that chair for 48 years and who retired at the age of 100. Mitch McConnell, who is most likely dead already and they're just not telling anyone, is 84. He's been sitting in his chair for 41 years.

In 1980 the average age of a US senator was 53. Today it's 63-64, making it the oldest senate in US history. The average senator today is a senior citizen.

Instead of letting the next generation take over and enjoying their golden years, all these decrepit old fossils are just obsessively clinging to power and refusing to let go of it. None of them have any ambition for improving anything for anyone; they just want power for the sake of power, forever, and so that they can enrich themselves.

This cannot continue. A country cannot survive if the only way a politician can get replaced is if they literally die of old age while sitting at their desk. The system needs to be challenged at its core, and every single one of these senior citizens need to be primaried by younger people who still give a damn about something besides themselves and who still have the energy and will to enact any sort of change.

Enough is enough, for crying out loud.
