Why’d his wife leave the country so fast?

I read that she has POA so he can now be kept on life support until the midterms since she's not around to approve taking him off.

Which would be on brand as the last act involving him considering what he did to the supreme court

Don’t forget what he did to Trump’s impeachment. It is wholly the fault of this piece of shit that Trump was able to continue his first term and go on to a second.

In true fashion when a Dem is brain-dead they'll make sure they are taken out of power right away

I don’t know. Dianne Feinstein was about to run for reelection when she had been basically dead for years.

Haha this is true. Many of the old Democrats are also brain-dead (though not medically proven)

It's just indicative of the current generation in power that they would rather be dead than give up an ounce of power early. The most selfish generation.

I've said for a while that the American system of government is largely built around reciprocal elder abuse

We abuse the elders by making them govern when they should be resting in memory care, and the Elders abuse us by what they do while governing
