- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
A couple of weeks ago, a clip of 81-year-old Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell went viral where he froze while being asked a question:
Afterward, he said he was "fine."
Still, it caused people to question whether he was up for the job, and people called on him to resign and retire.
Well, now it happened again.
A video of him freezing is once again going viral:

The *interesting* part of this incident was the question he froze up on.
He was asked, "Are you running for reelection in 2026?"
People are pointing out this interesting occurrence.

From "Wow, what a coincidence!"...
Wow, what a coincidence! When Mitch was asked his thoughts on running for re-election in 2026, his body responded… he froze up again. This is a problem. I’m sympathetic to health, but we can’t have individuals in office who are clearly unfit to serve due to their health. #Resign pic.twitter.com/vqZHVHxLs5

... to "I think that's a huge blaring red sign that he should NOT [run again.]"
I think that’s a huge blaring red sign that he should NOT if I’ve ever seen one…

People think this might be it for Mitch.
I’m not even a fan of/supporter of Mitch but this is a clear sign for the sake of his name, retire now before it becomes all you’re remembered for.
