The former president referred to McConnell as a “disloyal sleaze bag” and claimed that without Trump’s support, McConnell would not have won reelection. Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett joined a 6-3 conservative majority in overturning Roe v. Wade, thanks mainly to McConnell’s assistance in enabling Trump to appoint them as three conservative justices to the Supreme Court. So when he was the one driving the rioters who stormed the capital and did nothing, why is the former president trying to get angry with the Senate Majority Leader?
