Republicans Join Calls For Answers On McConnell’s Health

Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., argued that Republicans should hold their own leaders to the same standard they applied to former President Joe Biden during the 2024 presidential campaign.

“If McConnell is in as bad a shape as Biden ever was – or worse – he needs to step aside,” Mace wrote in a July 9 post on X.

“This charade can’t continue. We can’t demand of others what we won’t demand of ourselves.”

Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind., also compared the situation to concerns surrounding Biden’s health during the 2024 election cycle.
