Mitch McConnell clearly doesn’t want to talk about his hands, which appear to be in the early stages of decomposition, which is weird since, as far as we know, he’s still alive.
This week, alarming photos of the 78-year-old Senate Majority Leader’s bandaged hands looking swollen, discolored, and possibly gangrened went viral. His face and lips also appeared to be bruised and possibly in a state of decay.

When asked about his health yesterday, McConnell refused to answer questions other than to say there were “no concerns.”
How about we take this to the next level?

“Of course not,” he told reporters in the Capitol when asked if he had any health problems people should know about.
But the pictures speak for themselves.

Okay. Can we talk about Mitch McConnell’s horcrux hands.
Is he running around with severe Rona and showing the ‘Covid toe’ but on his hands?
He literally looks like a dug up corpse and nobody’s reporting on it. If Nancy Pelosi looked like that it would be nonstop coverage. pic.twitter.com/v4GAFPQkMT

When Politico reporter John Bresnahan pressed him on the issue, McConnell, who has spent the better part of the last decade trying to take away healthcare from millions of Americans, deflected by responding, “I’ve been worried about your health, Bres. How are you feeling?”
His aides also wouldn’t comment on what’s going on with his hands, but it’s clear something is definitely, definitely up.
The Mary Sue reports:
The internet diagnosed a wide range of potential ailments, from someone who blew a vein trying to take blood, to someone on blood thinners or anti-coagulants, and beyond. Whatever’s happening here, it would appear that McConnell is possibly unwell and perhaps his primary focus shouldn’t be on rushing a Supreme Court Justice through her confirmation by Monday.
McConnell is currently up for reelection and is forecasted to win his race against Democrat Amy McGrath.

“I have been dead for three days,” McConnell wrote in his secret diary, “The public has yet to notice.”

The republican party dying, one member at a time. That’s gonna take WAYYYY too long.

He’s rotting from the inside out.

In the picture at the top of this story, his lips look rather “ill” also.

Oh dear, oh my, poor Mitch looks like he’s been rimming a snowman.

As unbelievable as it may sound, Mitch McConnell is even uglier on the inside than the outside. Maybe we’ll all get lucky and his zombie rot will eat through his human-suit. Then he’ll collapse into a pile of slime on the Senate floor.

Moscow Mitch is dying proof that ugly is not just skin deep…

I wonder if he had a fight with someone in Kentucky……maybe his wife. It seems he was punched in the mouth and he punched back. That is why his mouth and hands are bruised!

From a medical perspective, if I was his doctor, I would be very concerned. It appears he has something systemic going on here.

Did he drop his horcrux?
