Mitch McConnell Gets Testy in CBS Confrontation About Health Issues
“I think we ought to be talking about what we were talking about earlier, rather than my health,” McConnell told CBS.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) seemed to think the health of the 81-year-old minority leader of the U.S. Senate was not an issue worth discussing during a sit-down interview with CBS.
You're viewing a single thread.
His tight-lipped answer didn’t seem to satisfy Brennan, who wondered if McConnell meant he could still serve “at a time when we are talking about incredible dysfunction in Washington?”
“I think we ought to be talking about what we were talking about earlier, rather than my health,” McConnell shot back.
Fox News Sunday’s Shannon Bream also interviewed McConnell. She said in her introduction to her interview that she also asked about his health and he said “he’s doing great, and has a clean bill of health.” She did not air her questioning on the subject or McConnell’s response.
I definitely prefer the CBS model wherein we actually ask politicians questions with follow ups, instead of assuming answers like Fox does.
“I think we ought to be talking about what we were talking about earlier, rather than my health,” McConnell shot back.
Fair enough, Senator. Can you tell me, what were we just talking about?
"Person, woman, man, camera, TV"
Exactly my first though... Interesting that he didn't specify the subject. I'd be curious if he, on the spot, could have answered that question.
*freezes like he’s hiding from a T-Rex in a movie *
"I think we ought to be talking about what we were talking about earlier, rather than my health," McConnell shot back.
No, he snapped back.
🤣
Whoa there and back up just a quick second!
He has lips??
