Trump attacks Senate GOP leader McConnell after acquittal

TIL Desk/World/Washington/ Former US President Donald Trump attacked Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, days after seven Republican senators joined all 50 Democrats in voting to convict him of inciting the deadly January 6 Capitol riot.

“Mitch is a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack, and if Republican Senators are going to stay with him, they will not win again,” Trump said in a statement released through his Save America super PAC on Tuesday, blaming McConnell for Republican Party’s 2020 Senate losses.

“He will never do what needs to be done, or what is right for our Country. Where necessary and appropriate, I will back primary rivals who espouse Making America Great Again and our policy of America First. We want brilliant, strong, thoughtful, and compassionate leadership,” said Trump.
