The age of American politicians in power is under scrutiny after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, 81, fell at a Washington, D.C., dinner last week.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., speaks at a Senate Rules Committee markup to argue against the"For the People Act," which would expand access to voting and other voting reforms, at the Capitol, May 11, 2021.
"I hope he recovers from his injuries because I don’t wish ill upon others, but it’s time for him to retire," Bruesewitz continued. While McConnell's recovery is"proceeding well," the issue of age and fitness of politicians in Congress and the White House have been brought up on social media. White House press secretary Karine Jean Pierre has repeatedly defended Biden amid questions about his age.
