Speedy recovery, Senator. I know that having excellent health insurance will be a true blessing to you and your family during this stressful time. P.S. Feel free to read over the Constitution while you are on medical leave.
C’mon Sen. Tillis, you shouldn’t be worried to much, yes you barely won your election and yes Trump is provoking a tsunami of democratic votes, but you are not due to reelection until 2020, the Orangutan will be forgotten by then.
Besides you have a fancy government issued medical insurance to take care of you in the meantime.
That’s one way of postponing having to deal l’affaire Trump.
Good thing he has healthcare and doesn’t have to worry about the bills afterwards. Get well soon.
Tillis is a scumbag. Collapsing and being hospitalized doesn’t change that.
I’m sorry to hear this, and I hope he makes a full recovery no matter what our political differences are.
As my mom said, “When you can’t say something nice, just log onto your TPM account and let your real feelings out”.
Take your time with recovery, Senator.
He’s in training to run away from Trump, and that’s as far as he can get before the Orange Anchor pulls him down.
What are the odds he just wants to hide out away from Washington for a while?
{: chuckle :}
He’s OK:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina says he’s “fine” after collapsing during a Washington, D.C., race and being taken away by ambulance.
Tillis posted a video on Twitter from his hospital bed Wednesday morning saying he was OK.
In the video, Tillis says: “Hey everybody, I’m fine. Just running about 2 and a half miles in and got overheated, no CPR, no special measures, just checking me out. See you back on the Hill.”
Tillis, 56, was seen on the ground at about 15-20 minutes into the race, which started at 8 a.m. The three-mile race was being held in Anacostia Park in the southeast part of the city.
Spicer hides in the bushes, Tillis feigns a heart attack… man these republicans will do everything to hide from the press…
Glad he’s OK. Why is the race referred to as a “three-mile race” instead of a 5K, which I’d believe it was? Some sort of anti-metric #MAGA thing?
I suppose we’re supposed to care.
I lost the ability to feel anything but disgust for anything republican after watching their dark hate filled orgy of treason in Cleveland last June.
Glad you feel that way. The minute he crawls back to DC he’s taking your health insurance away and raising your taxes under the tax reduction act of 2017 which reduces his taxes while you pay for it.
Gosh, you’d think that of all people these fine representatives of Southern masculinity would be able to handle running in sticky heat.
Yes, I admit it’s a cheap shot at Carter, but if you’re President, you don’t put yourself in situations where you’re in danger of looking ridiculous.
Needless to say, I’d love to put His Orangeness into some running gear and time how long he can move at a brisk walk without having to stop and gasp for breath.
While I wish illness on no one, this phenomanally corrupt pol would serve NC best by retiring to spend time with his family. Prick.
Now now, everyone be nice. We wish the senator a speedy recovery and look forward to kicking his healthy ass out of office in 2020!
Tillis: “I’m fine”
FAKE NEWS!
You weren’t fine before.
