(#6372) Call a special election in Kentucky!

      When a sitting US Senator is medically unable to contact anyone outside his handlers then the obvious act is to replace him. Make the sitting US Senator reach out personally to inform the powers that be in charge of having a functioning US Senator representing Kentucky. The old saying of ask for forgiveness instead of asking for permission axiom. If the sitting US Senator is fine then he will proactively contact the Governor, who in this case is the power that is in charge of replacing him if he isn't available to function. Put the onus on the sitting US Senator instead of possibly being duped by the sitting US Senator's handlers.
     The handlers keep trying, unsuccessfully, to imitate proof of life from the Senator in question. After trying to be professional about learning the health of the incapacitated Senator the fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me axiom comes into play. The handlers have already made fools of themselves so surely the Governor will not let them make of fool of himself. So forcing an election to begin will make sure that if the Senator is functioning he will physically produce the evidence through an in person meeting with the Governor. That should prove to be satisfactory. The sitting US Senators handlers cannot be allowed to control the narrative of how the law works to replace an incapacitated Senator.
     Why would the Senator's handlers want to slow walk the physical reporting of their Senator? Because if he is incapacitated then a special election must be called if before August 3rd. The handlers don't want that special election to occur as it would hurt heir chances of maintaining that seat and deny the handlers the opportunity to control who should run for the seat in November. There is nothing mysterious here about the motive of the handlers. What is highly suspicious is the denial they keep extending about the real medical condition of the sitting US Senator. Enough with the shell game republicans! I urge the Kentucky Governor to call the special election and then let only the Senator respond if he is able.
