Reports citing emergency dispatch audio said responders were called to McConnell’s residence on June 14 for an unconscious patient and later discussed “CPR in progress” for a possible cardiac emergency.

Oh! So, we’ve escalated from him being found unconscious and rushed to the hospital to active CPR? Wouldn’t it have been something if the Republican stance of allowing doctors to decline giving medical care on moral grounds ended up being applied against the interests of the long-term cancer that is McConnell?

        True, but he can’t vote, and while he’s alive and in office they can’t replace him.

        He can stay in that bed forever, IMO – as long as he can’t participate in the further dismantling of democracy.

          His staff have been doing all the work for the past few years. They just have to figure out a way to roll him out on a wheelchair with his eyes open somehow so he can press the yea or nay button to any kind of legislation.
