Knives Out for McConnell as Excerpts of Biography Emerge About ‘Stupid, Narcissist’ Trump, MAGA, and Other Colleagues
The outgoing Senate Republican leader told his biographer that President Reagan ‘wouldn’t recognize’ the party President Trump has created.

Senator McConnell is being bashed by fellow Republicans for new comments from his upcoming memoir in which he refers to President Trump as “stupid,” “despicable,” and a “narcissist,” along with other harsh comments about fellow senators. He described the MAGA movement and its adherents as fundamentally “wrong” about critical issues.
Excerpts from an advance copy of “The Price of Power” are being disclosed to members of the press, including comments about Trump’s responsibility for the January 6 riots, the seriousness of the MAGA movement, and the policies put forth by some of the hard-right members of Mr. McConnell’s own Senate conference.
