Kentucky Governor Threatens To Go Nuclear On Mitch McConnell

[Geechie]

108. I'm sure others have answered your repeated question better, but how about for starters

"challenge Republican lawmakers in court” as was stated in the OP?

Check out John Youngblood’s Facebook post, which has gone viral in the past week. Here, I’ll make it easy for you:

"Since McConnell won't (or more likely CANNOT) provide proof-of-life (and/or mental competence) Governor Bashear should just announce he will appoint his replacment.
The Republicans will no doubt go straight to the courts to block such a move.
And the court will most likely rule, immediately, that McConnell and the Republicans should simply provide proof McConnell is alive and well and that would be the end of it.
Force their hands, governor. This charade has gone on long enough.
And if it turns out that McConnell has been in a vegetative state since admission to the hospital, likely considering all the details, than Senator John Thune and political commentator Scott Jennings are clearly liars. Thune should be censured and investigated for ethics violations, and Jennings should be summarily fired.
If it turns out on the other hand that McConnell beat the 95.6% odds stacked against him and he's doing fine, then HE should answer for his intentional silence.
Either way, this is all bull****.”
