Personally, I think he’s in hospice. He should’ve resigned a decade ago. His coherency is equal to, if not more worse than Biden’s. Anyways, don’t wish death upon him but he needs to resign if he is in state where he can.

He might be dead, but I don’t think so. He will no doubt get a high end funeral in Washington DC Rotunda. I do think those arrangements are prepped and ready for him.

I think a bigger problem is that the Dem gov in KY, - Andy Beshear, may have the right to appoint his replacement, - which would only further hurt us in the Senate.

Then again, maybe the Senate Republicans have put his body on ice in some basement freezer while they wait for his replacement (hopefully a Republican) to be elected and take his seat.

Who knows?

Thankfully, Kentucky is one of the few states that does not permit gubernatorial appointments to the U.S. Senate.

He is clearly unfit to serve.

His CCP wife may be desperately trying to get new chinese organs, to transplant into him, but he is likely not a surgica candidate anymore.

If he resigns soon, the Gov can appoint a replacement right away; special elections are only for congressman who vacate the office.

Negative. The governor cannot appoint a replacement. He can only call for a special election.

As a critical care nurse, looking at Senator Mitch McConnell’s situation through an ICU lens tells a very different story from the public updates.

Following the release of emergency audio detailing an unconscious person and active CPR for cardiac arrest at his residence on June 14, his staff issued a statement claiming he continues to improve and is working closely with his office.

However, anyone with extensive bedside experience knows that for an 84-year-old frail patient who has sustained an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest requiring full resuscitation, the idea that he is actively participating in daily Senate business is highly unlikely.

The brutal physical trauma of chest compressions combined with the high risk of acute neurological insult makes a return to a high-functioning baseline virtually impossible for someone with his preexisting vulnerabilities.

From my clinical perspective, the statistical chances of a full recovery are slim to none, serving as a stark reminder that political status cannot override physiological limits.

Who agrees that his constituents and the rest of America deserves the truth?

The phrase "a return to a high-functioning baseline" makes some assumptions about the level of function of the baseline that I think might not be entirely accurate here.
