Outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, 82, is recovering from minor injuries after he fell following Senate Republicans' weekly lunch Tuesday, his office said.
“Leader McConnell tripped following lunch. He sustained a minor cut to the face and sprained his wrist. He has been cleared to resume his schedule," a spokesperson said in a statement.
On his way to the Senate floor later Tuesday, McConnell, R-Ky., told reporters he is "feeling good." He had bandages under his left eye and on his left wrist.
Medical personnel were seen leaving McConnell's office just after 2 p.m. Tuesday following Senate Republicans' weekly lunch.

JUST IN:
Mitch McConnell fell inside the US Senate and he’s now getting medical care.
The Senate is a senior care facility with full amenities.

Sure, as a decrepit old guy who just fell down, gashed my face, and twisted my wrist, I feel great. Mentiroso.

Oh c'mon, we know you are pinin' for the fjords, Mitch.
Resigning and going back home to Kentucky will suffice.

There should be a TKO rule for politicians.
You fall down three times in a year and you're out.

Once you fall all kinds of things happen to your body. He needs to leave and enjoy the time he has left

He’s been devastating the country for years. Maybe it’s God’s way to say it’s pay back time. FH.

"Sen. Mitch McConnell says he's 'feeling good' after falling and spraining his wrist."
