If I’m a fellow Senator and Mitch and I are a little bit friends, the 1st thing I’m going to do is check that he’s okay. Just ask him, Hey, man, how are you doing? And maybe I know of a good doctor who’s helped someone I know with fainting, “spells,” drop in blood pressure, etc. Meaning, it may or may not be stroke. And if I recommend a doctor, I’m going to be both matter-of-fact and respectful. Of course, I am.
And maybe he at least needs to step down from the leadership position.
Some news media outlets are reporting that Mitch blood pressure was low. Luckily there was someone there by his side just in case he fainted. If this is going to get worse or be a constant problem, I think it's time for Mitch to hang it up.
