Dude has been dead and they will announce it right after the deadline.

He'll be dead in 8 days, officially. And his seat will go vacant, to prevent any obstruction to the destruction of this country.

We all know what they're doing, but apparently no one who could stop it cares to.

He is evidently unble to fulfill his duties. Needs to be replaced by someone who can.

How can he face anything? He ded

Does he face growing questions? Does he? Because I have a strong feeling he's facing questions in the same way that rocks might.

"growing questions" this, "demands proof of life" that, all of that is meaningless. Either declare him dead and issue the writs of election or he shows his face in public.

Sometimes, the politics in my country enfuriate me.

But then I'm reminded just how absolute garbage it is in the US, and I feel better.

One minute beyond the deadline they will announce, "mitch was visiting the ole' Kentucky explosion factory today, not being a closeted homosexual, and in a freak accident, he exploded. So we're all super bummed that there can't be an autopsy now... Even if there could be of course, the results would just say he was definitely straight, and he was not dead for a month before his corpse living body was deliberately accidentally exploded."

oh don’t fuck it up for them now…. they’ve only got 8 more days til they can pull the plug.

How can he face these questions if he is brain-dead or dead? Headlines today, sheesh!

He is dead…

He's passed on! This senator is no more! He has ceased to be! He's expired and gone to meet his maker! He's a stiff! Bereft of life, he rests in peace! If they hadn't nailed him to the hospital bed he'd be pushing up the daisies! His metabolic processes are now history! He's off the twig! He's kicked the bucket, he's shuffled off his mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible!! HE IS AN EX-SENATOR!!

If he's not dead dead, which admittedly seems like it would hard to keep secret for a month and a half, it seems pretty likely that he knows he isn't fit to serve and is simply waiting on announcing that until it's too late for the people of Kentucky to have a say about his successor. Which would, as many have noted, be a perfect way for this ghoul to end his career, fucking over his constituents one last time on his way out the door.

What mouse jiggler does he use?

He’s turtle soup now.

He's a turnip.

Whatever. He released a statement that boils down to he is getting more work done in the hospital than he ever did from the Capital.

Poor Dalores :(
