That they didn't seem surprised by it or alarmed by it (i.e. calling an ambulance, rushing to a doctor for a stroke) means it could be a known condition. They said that kind of thing can happen with Parkinson’s. I don't know about the symptom but the point about their reactions makes sense.
What drives someone to the point where they'd subject themselves to that kind of public episode?? What's the benefit? So strange.

There are few totally benign causes and Parkinson's is quite unlikely to be that far gone that quickly to have that type of cognitive issue with no other symptoms (altered gait, tremor, flat affect, etc). If looking at medical history he recently had a serious fall. If you were to tell me that your grandfather was having these episodes with his medical history I'd be seriously concerned about transient ischemic episodes. He should not be in charge of making any serious decisions at this point. It's dangerous for the US and he himself is in real danger. I don't think they aren't reacting differently because it's a benign causes, it's because either McConnell himself or those around him don't want him removed from power.
Diane Feinstein and Mitch McConnell should all not be Senators strictly because of inability to do their job. It's Weekend at Bernie's because their handlers have agendas they want to affect. It's gross
