What happened to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell? Doctor analyzes the signs

There needs to be an age limit for these political dinosaurs

This is not a mini stroke (no mouth drooping, word slurring) nor a TIA. Rather, the blank stare without eye movement is a symptom of PNES (Psychogenic Non-epileptic Seizure). He cannot control his staring, nor can he speak or move during the stare. However, during the stare, he can hear everything around him and has conscious awareness that he is “frozen” but cannot respond until the staring spell ends. He is not experiencing any pain. It is moments later that he begins to regain control but it leaves him with the feeling of being in a daze (intense brain fog) and unsteadiness (watch him hold onto the podium as he turns away). The blank stare occurred the moment that the lady in green touched him. She came from behind him and out of his view before reaching him and quickly touching him. Her touch triggered his staring spell because he was not expecting her to do this. Her touch caused a sudden startle response in him to mentally shut down momentarily. And that is exactly what happened… his subconscious takes over and mentality shuts him down instantly as a protection, due to him being on overload. He literally becomes incapacitated because he can not control his response to the trigger. (There can be many different triggers that bring on the staring spell. Anything that happens suddenly and without any warning, including a sudden touch and loud noises, can be triggers.) This symptom (along with other symptoms) can occur multiple times each day. Obviously, the man on his left, who spoke in his ear, had seen McConnell do this before. He did not seem surprised nor alarmed. In fact, none of them appeared surprised to see this occurring.

All of this can be a result of very intense, very extreme, prolonged, chronic stress that becomes manifested into physical symptoms as seen in this video. After the spell passes (sometimes can last several minutes) and the brain fog, unsteadiness, and weakness ends, he can resume his normal speech. Hence, the reason that he was able to walk back to his office (without a wheelchair) and return back to the podium shortly afterwards (see other videos). Hence, this is more evidence that this was not a stroke or TIA.


If anyone has received a diagnosis of this condition or has experienced the exact same symptom, please reply so we can talk further.

That lady poked Mitch with something on his hand right before he started to spaz out and the guys in the back started to smile because of it.

As someone with a seizure disorder I recognize that look. I have seen videos of it on my own face. I had a head injury shortly before experiencing my first seizure also, and have had a lot of petite mal seizures and some grand mal seizures before finding a treatment that has worked very well. These petite mal seizures or absence seizures are uncommon in adults but as an adult who has has them, they do happen. PNES is another possibility as it looks very much like a seizure but without the electrical disturbances.

It looked suddenly realized what a terrible human being he has been throughout his career.

How many of you guys asked what’s going on with Biden and his lack of communication skills? Sounds like a double standard.
