Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday told reporters that his health is fine after recent bruising that has appeared on his hands and lips. In an off-camera conversation, Politico reporter John Bresnahan asked McConnell about his health and how he is feeling. McConnell, at age 78, is just the latest high-profile politician to be the subject of health-related speculation. Notably, both President Trump, especially after being diagnosed with the coronavirus, and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden have faced questions about their health. In the exchange with Politico's Bresnahan, McConnell also spoke about the timing of the final confirmation vote for Barrett.
