Politics in general, but especially the Republican party, is chock full of old, rich, white people — big emphasis on the old.
Maybe it’s rude, but it’s also true.
Now, I’m the first to admit that the geriatric nature of politics does not discriminate between party lines. Hell, President Biden is 79-years-old. However, there’s a big difference between Biden’s fit, healthy, well taken care of 79 years, and Donald Trump’s Diet Coke, ketchup, disappointment-laden 75 years. And frankly, a lot of Donald’s fellow GOPers are quite similar in that regard.
Honestly, it seems that every time you turn around, someone on the Right is looking pretty damn gaunt and sickly. A while back, we reported on 79-year-old Kentucky Senator and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s unexplained bruising on his face and hands. Just earlier today, as we reported, social media users were quick to take note of a new photo of ex-president Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort, in which he was looking rather haggard, with Band-Aids on his hands and a mystery stain on the crotch of his pants.
And now it seems it’s Lindsey Graham’s turn.

The popular Twitter account, PatriotTakes, recently took to their page with a photo of the 66-year-old South Carolina Republican senator, in which Graham was very much showing his age, complete with a big ole bandage plaster across the bridge of his nose:

As you’d expect, Twitter wanted to know what in the Hell was going on, and a few people had some ideas, suggestions, and theories of their own:
Looks like he may have been involved in some legitimate political discourse 🤷🏻♀️

Looks like red skin tags/marks on his face in addition to the bandage. Pre-skin cancer treatment?

I don’t really care, he’s a shell of what he was.
Just hanging on to coattails, it’s bound to get bumpy from time to time.— K Hook (@KHook18) February 7, 2022
Banged his nose hurrying back into the closet.

I’m seriously beginning to wonder if the entire GOP is just genuinely, physically falling apart.
