Senator McConnell, an ailing 82-year-old, fell twice on Capitol Hill today. He could get up on his own. Two senators ran to assist him.
Later in the day, McConnell fell a second time during a GOP lunch, according to CNN. He then had to be escorted around in a wheelchair. His aide blamed it on his childhood polio.
In March 2023, he fell at a hotel in DC and ended up with a concussion and a fractured rib.
He fell last December, cutting his face and spraining his wrist. He fell while deplaning in July 2024.
