her family has.

By the way, read, just this morning, that she went to China 3 days after Mitch was treated to CPR and a ride to the hospital. https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/elaine-chao-traveled-to-china-days-after-mitch-mcconnell-s-hospitalization/ar-AA27cHLu]

Think it's possible the shipping company heiress has some international business details to tie up before she has Mitch's life support unplugged?

You know, if I had her resources, I could probably have kept my beloved late husband on life support indefinitely and kept both his and my Social Security pensions while machines kept his heart and lungs going even after his brain had shut down and couldn't operate its own life support. But then, I am not a money triggered ghoul, so I kissed him on the forehead and wept as the machines stopped fighting reality. These 9 years since, I still weep.
