He'll regain his full power in 1d6 days unless a group of noble adventurers breaks into his lair and destroys his phylactery.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 3 points 20 hours ago

He's no president but it'll do

[–] moss_icon@hexbear.net 31 points 1 day ago

I’m surprised to hear that he went into cardiac arrest. I thought you needed a heart to do that.

[–] john_browns_beard@hexbear.net 34 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

Yes? Lol

The prognosis for someone receiving CPR after an unwitnessed arrest is abysmal for a much younger, healthy person - like 5% chance of survival and even less than that for survival without severe brain damage. If they performed CPR correctly they broke every rib in his chest, and if they were somehow able to get his heart beating again then he's certainly on a ventilator and brain dead. The absolute "best case" scenario is that the family is in denial and they haven't decided to pull the plug yet.

Two weeks ago, on the morning of June 14, he was found unconscious at his D.C. home and rushed to the hospital, after an EMS call reporting a cardiac arrest at his address and that he’d been given CPR.

Dude's 100% dead. At best, he's already braindead before they carried his comotose body to the ambulance and he died on the way to the hospital. No 84 year old with health issues is surviving that shit.

[–] LostCarcosan@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

I hope he's fully aware of his surroundings and body, but entirely unable to move or communicate in even the smallest of ways

In the last line of this article, Ken says he believes that Trump will say goodbye to McConnell over the weekend.

[–] john_browns_beard@hexbear.net 19 points 1 day ago (2 children)

God, to be a fly on the wall in that room

[–] dead@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I meant like a goodbye post on truthsocial, if he's already deceased. You know how Trump likes to be the first to announce things on truthsocial.

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 10 points 1 day ago

yeah there's no way he's going to see him lol

he just wants to post it first, and make sure it's after market hours

[–] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

You think? I imagine he sits there with a "what the hell do you want me to do about it?" sort of annoyance on his face. I don't think Trump has either the sharp wit he started with or the togetherness to do a Trumpism (e.g. veterans are suckers and losers).

I envision Trump seeing McConnell as an instrument more than he does a person.

I think McConnell saw McConnell that way too.

[–] GladimirLenin@hexbear.net 11 points 1 day ago

Technically, no. Probably just waiting for one of his family members to yank that cord out of the wall outlet.

[–] quarrk@hexbear.net 26 points 1 day ago

Mitch Mc-Gone-ell kelly

[–] larrikin99@hexbear.net 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If he's dead, and Trump hasn't immediately announced it, then either trump is also undergoing a medical emergency or they're hiding the news from him.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

My money is the old ghoul is in a medical coma or some shit, but I'm surprised Trump hasn't opened his fat mouth over it.

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago

That's right! Dead serious about going to Itchy and Scratchy Land!

[–] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 10 points 1 day ago

He can be a little dead. As a treat.

[–] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago

spiritually, yes

[–] FnordPrefect@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait...you're dead...what are you trying to tell us? doggirl-sweat

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 3 points 1 day ago

No, he's Mitch McConell.

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 10 points 1 day ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_McConnell#Health

In February 2026, McConnell was hospitalized for eight days for "flu-like symptoms".

Comrade Covid does it again.

The damage this man has done to the slander of turtlekinds is immeasurable.

[–] makeshift0546@lemmy.today 6 points 1 day ago

I hope so. If only more gop'ers could drop dead I would be so happy 🤞

[–] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Where can I gamble on his death and do a parlay gambling on whether the S&P500 reacts and whether it will change by a magnitude >1% and whether it will go up or down?

[–] dead@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Polymarket has Mitch McConnell leaving Senate before the end of his term (January 2027) at 46% with a $125k volume. (I do not condone gambling)

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Didn't they declare that if the person dies it doesn't count as "leaving"? I remember that being a controversy.

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It would be extremely funny if the Senate went by Navy rules where the US Navy has never lost a submarine, the 50 or so destroyed in combat are considered "Still On Patrol"

Dying while holding office means you're "Still Filibustering". That would be a good bit

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

That will be newsoms reason for not doing anything. Sorry we can't relegalise abortion Mitch is still filibustering.

[–] MaxOS@hexbear.net 4 points 1 day ago

He’s fine

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago

I hope so. I hope it intently. And I hope it hurt.

Hopefully burning in hell according to his stupid beliefs

[–] BearerOfPickles@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago

If a pillow falls wrong on his face he will be. You could toss a teddy bear and kill him
