WASHINGTON — Mitch McConnell said on Tuesday that any person associating with people espousing anti-Semitic views is unlikely to be elected president.
The Senate Republican leader never mentioned former President Donald Trump in his 38-word statement to reporters, but he didn’t have to. McConnell didn’t even need to be prodded with a question he knew was coming at his weekly stakeout in the Capitol rotunda.
“There is no room in the Republican Party for anti-Semitism or white supremacy,” McConnell said as he stepped up the microphone. “And anyone meeting with people advocating that point of view, in my judgment, are highly unlikely to ever be elected president of the United States.”
