According to sources, Trump's mission to take down Mitch McConnell isn't going so well
On Trump’s end, the ex-president—who still stands tall as the leader of the Republican Party and as the current favorite to win its 2024 presidential nomination, should he seek it—has been working the phones for months, calling up senators, GOP Senate hopefuls, and assorted MAGA figures alike to gauge interest and urge action on stopping his expected coronation for majority leader and “screwing over Mitch McConnell,” in the words of a person who was on the receiving end of one such phone call.
Asked if he’d want to assume the leadership post, Graham simply replied, “not me” and “no,” while audibly chortling on the call. But as Trump and his diehard supporters try to nudge the GOP farther down the path to open, intra-party rebellions, some of the ex-president’s closest lieutenants and fellow travelers are instead pleading for a détente of sorts.
