Perhaps those supreme court gods are punishing the evil republican for his epic hypocrisy and disgraceful ramming of some hard-right koch-puppet onto the high court.

You go, gods...

Trump was the oldest person to win be elected president at 70. But Reagan was 77 when he left office, almost 78. At the time the chatter was that someone in their mid to late 70's was too old to be the leader of the free world. Reagan was clearly in declining mental health his last term. Yet here we are. Trump will be the oldest to win a presidential election and pass Reagan if he serves out the 4 years. Actually if Biden wins he will 78 when he is sworn in. Which will make him the oldest day one.

Default compassionate Democrats

Guess we got tired of hearing “Hurry up Ruth” from compassionate conservatives. Ironically 1 letter difference.

The Independent has contacted Senator McConnell’s office for comment but was yet to receive a response.

A reporter did ask Mr McConnell if he had some kind of health issues, but he denied there was anything going on that the public should know about.

I've seen that before in older people could be thickening of the blood or maybe some blood disorder.

He is old as dirt. Old people often have blood bruising underneath their thin skin with the slightest bump. It happens to my dad all the time.

His hand? Maybe one of his underlings finally bit the hand that fed him.

Average lifespan includes everybody.

Life expectancy can be recalculated for each year of age.

At 78 male life expectancy in the US is about 9.37 years, female 10.92.
