His trip to see his white granny before she died - I can't find the article stating that he spent most of the time with his sister in the living room but here's another timeline. I guesstimate less than 5 hours total in granny's apartment. Me, if I was so concerned my grandmother wasn't long for this world would have spent every possible moment with her.

Thursday - visited her apt. briefly after the flight arrived that night

Friday - 8:45 to 10’ish AM at apt.
left for a walk in the neighborhood
SS picked him up and back to apt.
left for a lunch back at his hotel
2:34 to 4:05 PM at apt. until leaving for airport

And that’s not even your grandmother who raised you, or after you said you had missed the chance to be with your mother in her last days.

I still marvel at the amazing coincidence that granny died the night before the election. What is the chance of THAT happening?????
