Senate The leader of the minority Mitch McConnell He called his party Presidential candidateIN Donald Trump“Stupid”, “evil”, and “despicable man”, according to his own records.
MacConnell made wilting assessments in a series of private “personal oral stories”, which he gave Michael Takeette, deputy chief of the Washington Bureau Associated Press, who has the upcoming biography about the Senator of Kentucky The price of powerAP field is convenient reported Juicy details of the book.
MacConnell's comments were made after the 2020 elections, which Trump lost, and the senator, by the visible, was inspired to see the back of the former president, thinking: “Not only the Democrats who count the days,” until he leaves his post.
The Republican leader of the Senate since 2007, he also expressed confidence in the “common sense of the American people” that he rejected Trump this year.
“They had enough distortions, frankly consisted of almost on a daily basis, and they fired him,” he said, in one of his registered diaries.
The 82 -year -old MacConnell announced earlier this year that he would resign from the leader’s post in late November.
Despite his personal protests and his public accusation of Trump as “almost responsible” for the “shameful” attack on January 6 on the Capitol of the United States, MacConnell is one of several previously dissatisfied republicans who turned and support the former president this year.
“It is not surprising that, as a candidate, he will have my support,” he said In March.
This puts him in the league with Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) and Senator John Cornin (R-TX), two other supporters of the Republican Party, who criticized Trump differently, and then gave way to magicians.
After Trump lost the election, and during the weeks that preceded the attack on January 6, McConnell was in a private thought about his escalation instability, Taketta’s book will tell.
“It was very difficult to take for a narcissus like him, and therefore his behavior since the elections was even worse than before, because he now has no filter at all,” he said.
