WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell was admitted to a hospital Sunday, his spokesperson said, but there was no immediate information about why he was there or his prognosis.

McConnell, 84, was the longest serving Senate leader in history before stepping aside from that role while finishing his final term, which ends in January.

“Senator McConnell was admitted to the hospital this morning. He is receiving excellent care,” spokesperson David Popp said in a statement without elaboration. It was not immediately clear whether the Kentucky lawmaker was in Washington, his home state or elsewhere.

[Journeyman]

2. Would that it could be said of us all, in the final hours . . .

"They are receiving excellent care."

[twodogsbarking]

8. "Resting quietly" has to be right up there.

Just him being quiet is an improvement.

[Journeyman]

9. Too true . . .

[Lovie777]

3. If he does not make it, shithole would make a rude and ugly announcement................

say nasty things about him because he hates him.

[cstanleytech]

4. I offer him the same thoughts and prayers that I'm sure he offered Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

[Blumancru]

5. Trump is gonna be angry

That Mitch has ruined his birthday party by possibly dying.

[Harker]

10. Trumpsky could still regain the spotlight in a dramatic upstaging..

[aeromanKC]

6. McConnell should be in the top 50 worst persons in American History.

What he's done to this country, and government should never be forgotten or forgiven.

7. I would like to say that I wish the best to DUers who struggle with health problems, of any kind.

13. It would be wonderful if they got the same level of care and attention

as the turtle. And certainly nobody on DU ever has, or ever will, individually, or collectively, cause the level of harm and chaos that mitch has, or become so wealthy doing it.

The ruin this fucker's machinations brought on, may it please him in his last throes before hell.

[niyad]
