that’s the craziest part, that they are so determined to try to maintain the facade that they do not take her immediately to the hospital. Of course she should be getting a thorough medical workup, probably a battery of tests, maybe IV fluids etc. But instead, they will just try to ride it out in secret in Chappaqua and hope she does not drop dead in the next few days.’

This is the "dog that didn't bark." All of the USSS detail and her aides knew exactly what was the cause of her condition. They have seen it many times before and know exactly what to do. No need to go to the ER.

True, and that is a key aspect which the Mediascum must be forced to discuss -— why on earth would they not rush a collapsing 70 yr old woman to the ER to get checked out??

Oh, because they already know what they are dealing with, these collapses have become routine for them, and they do not seek any new medical information or guidance.
