00:00 So, Brian, we have Mitch malfunctions.
00:03 Senator Republican leader Mitch McConnell briefly left his own press conference last
00:08 week after stopping his remarks in sentence and freezing for several seconds.
00:13 And a string of...
00:31 One of Mitch's colleagues had to take him to his office to sit him down for several
00:36 minutes, but the 81-year-old senator later returned to the press conference to answer
00:41 a few more questions.
00:42 McConnell was previously out of the Senate for almost six weeks earlier this year after

01:22 They're not changing those rules.
01:23 But hey, you can't wish harm on anybody, but this was embarrassing.
01:27 I can only imagine what other countries...
