Is there a single politician anywhere in the world who looks as weird as Mitch McConnell?

The reason he looks like that is likely because he has no teeth remaining and wears dentures.

Our teeth aren’t just there for chewing food. They also have an important structural role in maintaining the shape of our jaw and mouth. Without teeth our jaw tends to collapse inward and gives our mouth that characteristic “old man” puckered look.
