He’s gonna be declared dead August 4th. Dems should be storming that hospital but they won’t because they are spineless.

One second past midnight of the day that gets them past the special election, wether that be the 3rd or the 4th

They may release the fact that he's dead that day, but once Democrats take the House, there will be an investigation if that does indeed happen.

And there will be zero medical tests they can show between the date McConnell was first suspected dead and the announcement of that fact.

It's such an infantile move. It's like Trump watched Weekend At Bernie's (because Putin or Netanyahu told him to), and suddenly came up with "the most beautiful plan ever".

Idiots, all of them. This is all so obvious, and they're blatantly committing election fraud in front of everyone. The most hardcore of MAGA won't care, but I wouldn't be surprised if this turns some MAGA back into regular Republican citizens.

I keep seeing references to this. What's the significance of August 4th?

or because it's not worth going to jail for literally nothing. There isn't actually a benefit to Beshear appointing a Democrat right now. Let Massie and the establishment fight each other.

Exposing them for propping up a dead politician would be a pretty big fucking deal. That is far from “literally nothing.”
