I see that Senator McConnell (R-KY) has taken the next step in the process of separating himself from President Trump, as Politico reports:
President Donald Trump claimed earlier this month that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told him that his phone call with the Ukrainian president was “the most innocent phone call that I’ve ever read.”
But McConnell said Tuesday he’s never discussed the phone call with the president.
In combination with yesterday’s testimony from diplomat Bill Taylor, including this opening statement, which is certainly worth a read as it gives the lie to the no quid pro quo chant, it appears the walls are beginning to collapse on President Trump. Given the evidence which continues to appear, this may all transition to the question of whether he resigns before he’s shown the door.
Although running for re-election after resigning would be something of a stretch.
