Former President Donald Trump has launched a scathing personal attack on fellow Republican Mitch McConnell.
Mitch is a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack,” said Mr Trump, “and if Republican Senators are going to stay with him, they will not win again.”
Mr McConnell, who led the Senate for years, voted to acquit Mr Trump in his impeachment trial last week.
But he then attacked him as “morally responsible” for the US Capitol riot because of his election fraud lies.
In a speech on the Senate floor, he implied Mr Trump should face criminal and civil litigation, because he was still liable for everything he did while in office.
