15 Social Media Responses To Mitch McConnell Freezing (Again)

Lately, prominent Senator Mitch McConnell has been having what appears to be some sort of glitch. He was spotted freezing mid-sentence for an extended period of time during a press conference. Ever since then, people on social media have shared their concern, both for Senator McConnell and for the American political system as a whole. Many people are using this as an opportunity to discuss term limits for older politicians, while others are predictably just making memes. It seems both responses are being treated as valid and are popularizing online.

Senator McConnell might be in a position of power in the Republican party, but he has many political opponents, who are responsible for the majority of the memes. But fortunately, whether you worry about McConnell or not, the entertainment provided by the responses on social media is bi-partisan. Here are some of the most entertaining (or just plain wrong) social media reactions to McConnell, after he froze up yet again and gained social media virality this week.
