Bernie is still as sharp as a tack in his 80's. I can't say the same for some of his opponents and colleagues.

The decline of the health with any of our politicians is truly difficult to watch. There comes a point when ones health should be more important than continuing to maintain positions in office.
They should willfully discharge themselves from these positions. If they feel it important to continue as a civic duty to the people they need to humble themselves and realize they're simply incapable. Rather than allowing everything to fall apart around them. It's a burden on the people

I think Bernie and the rest know privately that Mitch McConnell of Kentucky is gone. They're just being humane about it.

All i hear is words but not a single answer to any of the reporter's questions.

Sad to see people joke about this.. it’s dangerous!

[industryup]

Bernie is a class act as always. I hope Mitch feels better and steps aside.

[SmokeyMcb]

Mitch McConnell needs to retire.

It would be the best thing he can do for himself, his loved ones and America as well.

[stephanymurdy]

Always clear, alert and ready with a concise answer. I appreciate you, Bernie Sanders!

[paulporter]

We should consider STANDING UP against a corrupt government fueled by greed!

[patferrell]

This guy needs to retire too!..no more career politicians who later somehow make millions

[Robdizzle]

This is exactly how the first question should have been answered. This should go for both sides. I'm not a big fan of Bernie, but I appreciate his professionalism in this matter.

[codenamehavvok]

These people just love the power too much they will not give it up I've seen first-hand my own family what happens when a little person does not want to give up power they presume they have

[nickmendezrico]

As someone who deals with tortoises I don't see anything wrong with McConnell's freeze moments, he just needs to be placed outside under the sun, he'll get active after a few minutes...

[Buddhavibez]

Pensioners making decisions about a future they won’t see. Stop parading him on the world stage, it’s embarrassing. He should be forced to retire

[Chris-lfdl]

Maybe he can forsee our country' s future. He looks and gets terrified and freezes

[michaelwalker]

Time for all these old people to go to a retirement home or jail

[robinclark]

I pray Mr maconell would retire, obviously he's having health problems.😊

[bluecavemen]

sad part is both Bernie and Mitch are the same ages yet Bernie is in good shape meanwhile Mitch is in bad shape. Bother me to hear him talk nicely about Mitch. it tells you both are in the same side.

How about asking Point Blank about Bumbling, Feeble, Falling Biden instead ?
