    I wonder what’s going on there. Dementia or a minor stroke like a TIA?

      My vote is the latter, or maybe some kind of cardiac arrythmia that spooked him into “fight flight or freeze” mode.

      I’m thinking TIA, or a possible full stroke due to the tongue fasciculations.

      In the UK there was a load of medical PSAs about immediately getting someone exhibiting signs of a Stroke (which ofc includes TIA) to hospital coz every second wasted is potentially lifechanging/fatal.

      Meanwhile, every time one of these episodes happens to one of your legislative ghouls everyone just sorta stares at them until it subsides, which is a particularly funny way to deal with the ageing politician epidemic i guess.

        Three hours from the first symptom was my guideline when I worked in paramedicine. Within that we could push TPA, a drug that dissolves every blood clot in the body. After three hours the risk of causing a second stroke outweighed the benefits of stopping the one that has already done its damage.

    record scratch

    Narrator voice: “Well, I bet I guess how I got here.”

    several seconds of silence

    “Is there a gas leak in here?”
