Thune is lying. An 84 year old does not recover from cardiac arrest and delayed CPR.

For sure. I'd put money on Mitch being a vegetable, or close to, at this point. (I guess technically I can put money on him being a vegetable, but I digress).

Thune never talked to him. Republicans only lie now. It works for their Orange Messiah, so it now works for them as well.
