Mitch McConnell’s “Proof of Life” Really Proved Nothing

from The Spectacle Podcast: The Official Podcast of The American Spectator

After three weeks of silence, Mitch McConnell and his staff set out to end the speculation about whether he is still alive by posting a “proof of life” photo of him and his wife together. However, that photo only left more questions than answers. The Spectacle Podcast hosts Melissa Mackenzie and Scott McKay discuss McConnell’s political tenure, how he has been an obstruction to Trump’s agenda, and why he is a symptom of a broken system. Melissa and Scott explain the implications of replacing his Senate seat and offer arguments as to why the 17th Amendment should be repealed. They also discuss Lindsey Graham’s passing, his legacy, and the speculation around his death. Tune in to hear their discussion!
