Excerpts released to news outlets from “The Price of Power,” an upcoming biography of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., reveal that he privately said that former President Donald Trump was "stupid as well as being ill-tempered," a "despicable human being" and a "narcissist" after the 2020 election.
McConnell made those comments to the book's author, Associated Press deputy Washington bureau chief Michael Tackett, at the height of his public spat with Trump in the late 2020 months that culminated in the Jan. 6 insurrection.
