If his physical and mental health is that bad, he needs to step down. I know this is the Senate, where you have 90-year-old fossils like Chuck Grassley and Moscow Mitch. But as someone who has dealt with people having devastating damage from strokes, he needs to step down for his own good, and the good of his constituents. Josh Stein can appoint someone like Conor Lamb or former Gov. Wolf to fill out his term.

I doubt that telling him will convince him to step down. He probably has no concept of what is happening to him. DFW May 3 #7
