Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) wants to wash his hands clean of President Trump’s claim earlier this month that they had spoken to each other about the President’s infamous July call with Ukrainian president Volodymr Zelensky.
When asked by CBS News Tuesday whether Trump lied about the supposed discussion, McConnell said “you’d have to ask him” and that he doesn’t “recall any conversations with the President about that phone call.”
Sounds like Trumps play to drag McConnell down with him has not worked out as planned. How long before McConnell decides he wants to spend more time with his family instead of running again in 2020?
In fairness, if Donald Trump called me several times a day to bitch about my caucus, I would apply every form of brain bleach known to God and man to cleanse myself.
First the ugly reminder of poll numbers of 18% favorable rating, then being forced to turn against the ratfink Current Occupant who controls both your political destiny and that of your wife. Not having our best day are we, Mitchie?
McConnell, Barr and Murdoch are calculating the cost-benefit on continuing this presidency, and I bet the numbers are starting to shift in Q-Tip’s favor.
