Feinstein fell Tuesday. “All of her scans were clear and she returned home,” the senator’s office said, adding that her hospital visit lasted about two hours.

I am not familiar with her, so I cannot really say for certain what I think about her. What I CAN say is if a minor fall puts you in the hospital for a couple of hours, maybe you’re not fit to be in a seat of power.
A minor fall could put anyone in the hospital, if you hit something just right. She’s unfit for other reasons.
I’d assume that would get reported differently. Something like “non-geriatric person fell and sustained head injury”.
it has been, many, many times
That’s not the issue. A fall can hurt and I’d want a politician to make sure they’re not concussed.
The issue is stuff like a few months ago where she was out of office for weeks/months and when she came back she tried to argue with reporters that it didn’t happen, because she couldn’t remember that for an extended period of time she was physically/mentally unable to work.
Even when she was “better” she has no clue what’s happening around here.
Feinstein being decrepit and senile and controlled by her handlers (mostly because, if she steps down, we can’t do ANYTHING involving the judiciary committee because republicans will block it) is one thing. But minor falls really are problems
Couple months back I “missed a step” and basically fell down one single stair. Landed wrong on my foot. Was swollen pretty bad and had to walk with a cane for a few weeks after. If I were smart I would have gone to the hospital.
It was completely a “minor fall” and nothing was life threatening. But if that had happened during the work day: I would have texted my boss that I was done for the day.
