His cognitive decline doesn't matter in this play. In fact, it's central to the plot. He's the Project 2025 puppet. Russell Vought wrote the script. The GOP holds him up by the strings. As long as they keep feeding his ego and lining his pockets, he won't care, or even know, he's being manipulated.

Having had 2 C-sections, I can personally attest to the fact that there is no pain "during" the procedure. There are strange sensations when they're putting everything back in place, though. 🤢 The post-op pain comes after the epidural wears off, plus little lightning bolts under the incision line.
