Former President Donald Trump lashed out at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in a speech on Saturday, denouncing the Kentucky Republican as a “dumb son of a b***h” for not defending his election challenges.
Speaking with major Republican National Committee donors at his Mar-a-Lago resort, Trump said that now-Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) would have fought for Trump if they were members of the same party.
“If that were Schumer instead of this dumb son of a b***h Mitch McConnell they would never allow it to happen. They would have fought it,” Trump said, the Washington Post reported.
“I hired his wife. Did he ever say thank you?” Trump later added, referring to Elaine Chao, who served as Trump’s transportation secretary.
Later in the speech, Trump promised that Republicans would retake Congress and the White House in 2022 and 2024, but did not say whether he would seek a second presidential term.
The good president trusted too many dumb asses and now probably regrets many appointments. He did a great job even with the knives and new wounds daily before, during, and still after his service. Thank you sir!
