Rand Paul
  • Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell had two recent health scares while at press conferences.
  • The Capitol physician said McConnell may have just been dehydrated and didn't have a stroke.
  • GOP Sen. Rand Paul, also a licensed physician, said he doesn't believe the physician's diagnosis.

Republican Sen. Rand Paul spoke out against the Capitol physician's latest report regarding Senate Minority Mitch McConnell's health.

On Tuesday morning, Capitol physician Brian P. Monahan said that after consulting with several neurologists and reviewing the results of McConnell's MRI, he ruled out the possibility that McConnell experienced a stroke, has Parkinson's disease, or a seizure disorder after the senator's recent incidents during press conferences.
