It appears s that emergency services were called to the McConnell's resident for cardiac arrest where life saving measures were undertaken and the person was transported. There are e rumors that the person in question may be on life support and on the opposite side Thune has said he spoke with McConnell. Given that McConnell's is in his 80s and the Senate may be in play, what do you think? Do we have. "Weekend At Bernie's" situation?

I can't wait until they wheel his corpse into the Senate to pretend to cast a vote like the Democrats did with Dianne Feinstein

Elaine will be back in a couple weeks, she has a good trip she scheduled and didn't want to reschedule.

Given that Emergency Services were called to a cardiac arrest event, McConnell has a few broken ribs and may have some level cognitive impairment depending on how long he was down. The fact that he is 84 years old with a few comorbidities means that his recover if even possible will be extremely difficult.

Well he could find it in his schedule mathematically. 20 minute time slots, say he did 8 hours of that spread from 6 am to 2 pm. If we do some simple math that's 24, 20 minute talks.

Math is fun.

The man is 84years old with several comorbidities, hasn't been in six weeks, has broken ribs, might have a cognitive deficit, and is recovering from a heart attack. He would be exceptional if he were able to adhere to a schedule like you describe. That is a heavy load to recover from.

Plus multiple people have noted that he is now brain dead

I didn't say he did that. The question asked how could he, I explained how with simple math. It was very silly question to begin with.

Mitch McConnell will keep ‘working remotely’ while recovering until Aug 8, followed by his surprising but peaceful death—just late enough under Kentucky rules to avoid a special election. pic.twitter.com/FzdqytRGNH

Have you ever talked to someone who just had a heart attack. Their recovery is brutal and long. This is the engine that runs the body. When it is not functioning correctly, it affects all body systems. If he had his chest cracked then even more so. Only 3 weeks out from the event he is still in.a lot of pain, extreme fatigue, and memory loss. There for I am questioning his cognitive ability to carry on a conversation of any significance other than basic conversation but, not discussing the various topics that others said he was able to discuss. Yes, math is just math but, he is 84 y/o, has had just 3 weeks of recovery and may still be in ICU or a step down unit if he is lucky. I am just giving you accurate info on his road to recovery.

No, I am not but there are certain physical and mental achievements and timelines when it comes to recovery from a heart attack that can't be avoided no matter how much you want. His recovery should be 7 to 12 months if he can recover from a cardiac event where CPR was performed.
