Mitch McConnell Endures 5-Minute Heckling During Speech: 'Retire' and 'Ditch Mitch'
• The Gateway PunditSenate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was interrupted and heckled for five straight minutes during his speech in his home state at the St. Jerome Fancy Farm Picnic on Saturday, a premier political event in Kentucky.
Instead of a respectful silence, the audience delivered a relentless, clear, and loud message for a full five minutes, drowning out his speech.
Foot-stomping and chants echoed around the venue, making it abundantly clear that the senator's reception was far from warm in his home state. He is done.
