McConnell Receives Standing Ovation After Criticizing Trump
In a speech at the Reagan National Defense Forum, Senator Mitch McConnell implicitly criticized President-elect Trump’s isolationist foreign policy stance. McConnell warned against abandoning global leadership, contrasting the current GOP with the party under Reagan and highlighting threats from Russia and China. He emphasized the importance of American alliances and rejected the notion that U.S. primacy is self-sustaining. This critique builds on previously published sentiments where McConnell described Trump as damaging to the Republican party.
