It appeared that McConnell had to be physically assisted as he walked back behind closed doors.
NBC News reports, “A few minutes later, McConnell walked back to the press conference by himself. When asked about his health, he said he was fine.”
McConnell was placed in a physical rehabilitation facility for over a week in the Spring after falling at a Senate Leadership Fund event on March 8.
