Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from publicly in over a month after a fall left him hospitalized. He posted a meme on X with Shanahan posing as Mitch McConnell in one of the photos released to the public, showing him next to wife Elaine Chao. But in doing so, they actually used the McConnell meme in the story. WGN posted a meme of Kyle Shanahan as Mitch McConnell when reporting on his car accident. Because if Kyle Shanahan were really in a hospital room with Elaine Chao, we’d all have an entirely different set of questions.
