I'm honestly a little torn on this because I generally love The Onion and hate Mitch McConnell, but poking fun at what very likely could be a medical issue seems kind of low.

If this was about somebody misgendering a trans person because they committed a crime, I'd agree with you. But Mitch is hated because of the immeasurable harm he's done to countless Americans (and non-Americans), and I don't think it's reasonable to expect that people give him grace.
