New Book 'The Price of Power' Reveals McConnell Called Trump 'Stupid,' 'Despicable,' and 'Narcissist'
Oct 17, 2024, 03:28 PM
A forthcoming biography titled 'The Price of Power' by Michael Tackett reveals that Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, following the 2020 presidential election, privately described then-President Donald Trump as 'stupid,' 'ill-tempered,' a 'despicable human being,' a 'narcissist,' and a 'sleazeball.' According to excerpts from the book, set to be released this month, McConnell expressed frustration with Trump's refusal to accept the election results, stating that it wasn't just Democrats who were eager for him to leave office and that Americans 'had just enough of the misrepresentations, the outright lies almost on a daily basis, and they fired him.' The book also reports that McConnell sobbed after the January 6 Capitol riot.
