Trump Issues Statement Regarding Health of Mitch McConnell

Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee has said that even members of Congress are in the dark about McConnell’s current condition.

Speculation has surrounded the health of the 84-year-old McConnell since the Kentucky senator was found unconscious and required CPR at his home in Washington, D.C., weeks ago.

McConnell’s staff has provided no significant update on his condition since he was hospitalized June 14.

The secrecy has fueled speculation that there is an effort to keep the full extent of the Republican’s condition from the public and has raised questions about whether he will be able to return to office.
