Mitch McConnell cuts face, sprains wrist in fall at Capitol.

15. At 82 yrs old, his balance is probably not as good as it used to be.

My 81+ yr old brother-in-law recently told me that once you reach 80, you can expect to fall.
Yeah, my balance is a bit shaky now that I'm 78.
So, I'm not surprised by McConnell's fall. Personally, aside from his politics, I think he should consider retirement at the end of his term in 2 years. He'll be 85 in February of 2027, and had several health related episodes in the last couple years.
