If you want to see the differences and the similarities between the old school GOP leaders and the new breed, you have to look no further than the two most powerful Republicans in the land, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Former President Donald Trump, both of whom gave sit-down interviews this week.
McConnell spoke with Jonathan Swan at Axios while Trump was questioned by Josh Dawsey of the Washington Post. The two septuagenarian leaders don't speak the same language and they don't like each other at all but they both want the same thing: power. Their public approach to getting it couldn't be more different but I have a suspicion that if they both end up back on top they'll find a way to get what each of them wants.
