They're seriously going to let this man stroke his brain to swiss cheese, for what? To save what little is left of the GOP?
I'm convinced Glitch McConnel is to GOP what Tito was to Yugoslavia. After he's gone, what he once held together will tear itself apart from the inside.

Everyone in elected office over the age of 65 should be forced to retire. At best, they've done their duty and deserve to rest and enjoy the fruits of their labor. At worst, they're nonfunctional skeletons that don't even have skin in the game when it comes to government.

This is why we shouldn't have old people rule a country, not only do they make decisions that only benefit them in the short term they're also incapable of just talking in public
There are old people capable of talking to the public. Bernie for example

He's stuck in line after Kissinger. Is there a strike happening at Reaper Inc.?
It looks like he's having a mini stroke.
I know people are quick to jump on this as a sign of cognitive impairment, but could this be a form of aphasia resulting from his fall a few months ago?
I just ask because it's possible it's a motor issue (knows what he wants to say but can't physically say it) rather than a cognitive issue (can't think of something to say).
As much as I'd love for McConnell to GTFO, and certainly support age/term limits in Congress, if it is a motor issue it'd be similar to what Fetterman has dealt with since his stroke (auditory issue vs. cognitive issue).
