Tim Miller, former RNC Spokesperson joins Nicolle Wallace on Deadline White House with reaction to the new reporting for a forthcoming book detailing Mitch McConnell’s disdain for Donald Trump and how cynical it is given his refusal to condemn the ex-President and continuing to enable Donald Trump less than three weeks from the election.

No matter how low your opinion of Sen. Mitch McConnell — and his chronic, craven, cynicism — he still somehow finds a way to shock and amaze. This week, The Associated Press reported on excerpts from a new biography of McConnell by the AP’s deputy Washington bureau chief Michael Tackett.

It was that action that led to the former president’s now unceasing personal attacks. It would be one thing if McConnell’s support for Trump were driven by personal ambition. That would be awful and cynical — but it matches the attitudes of many other Republican politicians, including Trump’s own running mate JD Vance, who have publicly supported Trump even while privately vilifying him. Indeed, McConnell referenced this sentiment gap when asked for comment about his private remarks.
