Former president Donald Trump took to social media to post a tirade about Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and the Kentucky Republican’s wife, who served as Mr Trump’s transportation secretary, after Mr McConnell declined to block a government funding bill.
Writing on his bespoke Truth Social platform (which he is contractually obligated to use despite once again having access to his Twitter account), Mr Trump suggested that Democrats “must have something really big” on Mr McConnell because the Senate GOP leader refused to stop passage of the omnibus appropriations bill that President Joe Biden is expected to sign in the coming days, which the twice-impeached ex-president called a “horrendous ‘All Democrat, All the Way’ OMINOUS Bill”.
