Protestors drowning out McConnell’s speech with chants of “Moscow Mitch” just made my day. Let’s make it viral.

that really warms my heart. maybe there is a real chance to vote his arse out of ofice.

1. That's the spirit

What a time we’re in.

Best thing I’ve seen all day. Thanks.

[malaise]

2. Is he wearing a sling? n/t

[TheCowsCameHome]

3. He'll need one for his ass if voters in KY wise up.

[malaise]

4. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Best laugh today

He did say he fractured his shoulder

[TheCowsCameHome]

7. I think this video was from Saturday

at a rally at a place called "Fancy Farm", not to be mistaken for the "Funny Farm" where DJT belongs.

Sunday he allegedly fell on his patio, although I'd like to think someone tripped or pushed him on purpose.

8. Thanks

LOL

12. Heckling politicians is apparently what Fancy Farm is all about.

Politicians hate it but think themselves obliged to go.

That being said, it would help my waning faith in America if Kentucky ousted Moscow Mitch.

16. Fancy Farm Picnic is a time honored tradition in KY

and is the official kickoff of the campaign season. If he is getting that kind of heckling at FF which is in a fairly red area things are not looking good.

One of my bucket list items is to go to Fancy Farm.

Fancy Farm itself is a wide spot in the road in Western KY and folks come from all over to that picnic

18. Sounds like fun.

The food sounds better than the Arkansas equivalent - the Gillett Coon Supper. No one even tries to say that BBQ raccoon is fit to eat.

I've never been but it is a must attend for Arkansas politicians.

21. He Tripped Over A Bag Of NRA Dark Money nt

[DBoon]

19. oh really?

Did his mommy write up an excuse for him to miss work?

[malaise]

20. Someone did

U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is recovering after falling at his Kentucky home on Sunday, leaving him with a fractured shoulder. McConnell’s spokesperson said the 77-year-old tripped on his outdoor patio and is now working from home in Louisville.

17. .

[marble falls]

11. Yeah, he hurt his shoulder in a fall last week. Tripped over one of his lies.

[flying_wahini]

23. Or his long tongue salivating over more $$$ from NRA and others.

[bdamomma]

5. These bastards will go down

or will he retire in his wife's country China??? Get rid of his ass.

[NBachers]

6. Ahhhahahaha That's the pick-me-up I was waiting for today. This needs to happen all day, every day!

[UTUSN]

9. K&R

[AC_Mem]

10. This is awesome

I can see that this may turn out to be a verrryyyy interesting election season!!!

[NCjack]

13. MM says he loves campaigning! nt

[Butterflylady]

26. That may be

But he won't like the interruptions and hopefully they'll follow him wherever he goes.

[NCjack]

29. Yeah. Remove his joy. nt

[Ferrets are Cool]

14. Will make the Turtle go into his shell. nt

[Demovictory9]

15. Kick

[FakeNoose]

22. "What I did on my summer vacay-shun"

Something tells me Moscow Mitch won't be spending much time in his home state for a while. He doesn't rely on local donations anyway, most of his campaign cash comes from the big bad PACs.

[gtar100]

24. This is why the fascists won't win.

Yea! Show them no respect. Why bother listening to a person who has proven himself to be a liar. He deserves as much respect as he has shown us.

[BlueJac]

25. Thanks I needed that!

[maddiemom]

27. Mitch is the complete embodiment of a "deplorable."

He's bragged for years of being party over country. Being an obstructionist toward the other party is not what this two-party government was meant to be about. Far before knowing what the sides of any issue entailed, let alone knowing what the issue itself was about, he's decreed he'd be against whatever the Democrats were in favor of. WTF? Who does he thinks he is and what is his reasoning? Who is he catering to? Certainly not his constituents. "Moscow Mitch" is the least of it. I'd guess it might have started with Newt Gingrich, but Mitch is even cockier than Newt.

[quakerboy]

28. where did this happen?

I'm surprised he deigned to go somewhere that this would be allowed. Surely future speeches will have better curated crowds.
