Mitch McConnell who Trump continually mocked and criticized again says he'd back Trump if the former president became the GOP's 2024 presidential candidate
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has again said he'd back Donald Trump if the former president were to win the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, citing an "obligation" to support the party's nominee.
McConnell reiterated his stance on Trump's candidacy which he first disclosed early last year in an interview with the Axios journalist Jonathan Swan this week.
"Help me understand this. I watched your speech last year in February on the Senate floor after the second impeachment vote for Donald Trump. And it was an extraordinary speech," Swan said, referring to a February 13, 2021, speech from McConnell.
"You spoke very powerfully against the most powerful figure in the party, the president. And you said Donald Trump's actions preceding the January 6 insurrection were a quote disgraceful dereliction of duty and that he was practically morally responsible, your words, for provoking the events of that day," Swan added. "How do you go from saying that to two weeks later saying you'd absolutely support Donald Trump if he's the Republican nominee in 2024?"
