I know. McConnell is not a boomer but this worked better.

    Still?

    He had a heart attack and they had to do CPR, there is a very real chance he has not been alive at some point since that event.

    Right now the question isn’t if his heart is beating or not, it’s if he’s literally brain dead or not.

    There’s a very real chance that he’s unconscious and never going to come out of it, but if his staffers admit/disclose that then they lose all their power. Because right now (and likely for years) they’ve been getting to call the shots and accept the bribes with zero scrutiny.

    We need wide spread investigations into the staffs of all these elderly politicians regardless of party, and pass laws making them mandatory reporters of health issues, especially mentally ones like dementia.

      Agreed. I read online from a source I’m not sure I can trust yet that he started receiving CPR 6 minutes after EMS was called. EMS was called when he was discovered laying on the floor unconscious. 6 minutes is a long time to not breathe, who knows how long he was actually not breathing. Seems like he’s cooked.
