Elon Musk Asks Million-Dollar Question about Mitch McConnell
Elon Musk has taken to social media to ask the million-dollar question about Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY).
The American people deserve an answer.
In a post on Twitter/X, Musk asked his tens of millions of followers:
“How can someone who is clearly experiencing aneurysms – live on TV –have authority for critical decisions that affect the world?
“Real question,” he added.

Musk had earlier called the Senate GOP leader out on social media.
On Wednesday, McConnell said:
“The number one priority for Americans is providing assistance for the Ukrainians to defeat the Russians”
Musk responded with:
“Mitch has lost his marbles.”

The comments from Musk come amid mounting concerns over McConnell’s fitness for office.
Late last month, McConnell froze for the second time during a gaggle with reporters in Covington, Kentucky.
He stopped talking and stared blankly for more than 30 seconds after he was asked if he would run for re-election.
Multiple aides had to step in to help as the senator looked lost and confused.
The incident in August was the second time in two months that McConnell has frozen on camera.
The other time, McConnell froze up and his fellow GOP senators had to step in, as Slay News reported in July.
McConnell looked like he was trying to restart his speech but was unable to.
Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY) escorted McConnell away from the cameras and reporters.
Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) appeared to make a sign of the cross as if she was praying for McConnell.
A few minutes later, McConnell came back to the press conference by himself.
He stood away from the podium and when asked about his health he said he was fine.
After the second incident, the Congress physician examined McConnell and asserted that his freeze-ups were not the result of a stroke or seizure.
