McConnell Freeze: Ron DeSantis Responds to Mitch McConnell's Health Scare

Responding to a Wednesday episode in which Mitch McConnell froze mid-sentence while addressing reporters, Florida governor Ron DeSantis suggested in a recent interview that the Senate majority leader and other politicians of his generation should “pass the baton” to younger leaders.
 

On Wednesday, McConnell abruptly stopped speaking in the middle of a GOP leadership press conference and had to be escorted away from the podium, leading many to question his physical and mental fitness.

“Do you want to say anything else to the press?” fellow Senator John Barrasso (R., Wy.), a trained doctor, whispered to McConnell before escorting him away from reporters.
