@Alyssafarah Democrats wheeled out Feinstein to cast a vote on the day she died and I don’t recall the ladies ever discussing that yet when it’s a republican they won’t shut up about it. I will agree with one thing. Washington and politics in general must have term limits AND age limits.

@Alyssafarah Is this what America has come to? These are elected government officials not kings or queens. Yes, there should be term limits and age limits for those running for Prez, House and Senate. Both Trump,Biden, McConnell have all demonstrated the reasons why.

Jayapal on McConnell: How about we have term limits on members of Congress and upper age limits on members of Congress? Why do we allow people to stay until they literally have to be carried off the floor, until they disappear with paid leave that they won’t grant for anyone else in the country?

Congress is split on term limits after a string of health scares forced the debate back into the open — and the divide doesn't break along party lines. Sen. Lindsey Graham's unexpected death in office last week, combined with extended absences from Mitch McConnell and Rep. Tom Kean Jr. due to health issues, has lawmakers publicly wrestling with whether age and tenure have become liabilities on Capitol Hill.

🚨 JUST IN: Amid Sen. Mitch McConnell's absence, President Trump says he'd SUPPORT term limits legislation for Congress, if passed "I'm OK with term limits. Remember, the people that have to pass term limits are the people that are going to be voting on them to get out of office! So it's a little bit tough. That's not the easiest vote to get, is it?"

Mitch McConnell is in the hospital. We don’t know why yet. But doesn’t it beg the question, should we have term limits for those serving in the house and Senate? Or at least a cognitive test?

Sen. Mitch McConnell's return to Capitol Hill is still up in the air. McConnell has been absent from the Senate since mid-June after a fall and hospitalization for pneumonia. His prolonged absence has fueled questions about his health and whether he'll be back to vote on key legislation, though his office says he has remained engaged in Senate business while recovering. | Chad Pergram The Story

I’ll tell all of you what I told the news anchor just moments ago during a live hit: I don’t believe Senator Mitch McConnell is coming back to the Senate floor when it reconvenes on September 14. In my view, his staff simply needs to hold out until October, when the Senate leaves Washington and does not return until November 6. By then, based on Kentucky law, it would be too late to call a special election to replace Senator McConnell. If that happens, I believe McConnell will remain in office, with him and his staff continuing to collect their paychecks until the new Congress is sworn in in January.

NEW: Mitch McConnell appears to have a medical emergency as he suddenly stops talking during a press conference. I wish McConnell well but this man, like Joe Biden, should have left politics decades ago. Washington needs term limits. America is controlled by people who become addicted to power and have virtually nothing in common with the American people. Term limits. Now.
