US senator Mitch McConnell on Sunday revealed for the first time that a fall led to his hospitalization, breaking the silence about the Kentucky Republican’s condition after weeks of mounting speculation about his health.
The statement included a smiling picture of McConnell with his wife, Elaine Chao, a tacit response to speculation online that he had died or was incapacitated. McConnell held a copy of Sunday’s Washington Post sports section in his hand.
I think that’s a very fair question, not least because of all the Republicans swearing they had twenty minute conversations with him by phone in the last few days.
If he can talk on the phone that long, then how is it that we only have one posed still photograph?
He still slurring his words from a stroke?
So then he should resign.
