This makes me speechless.

As Swan continued to question McConnell on his position, the Republican leader responded, “I say many things I’m sure people don’t understand.” […]

Lol…Yeah Mitch. Sure…smh!

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday said he was “shocked” to hear that he’s considered a “ruthless” politician, adding that his wife and children like him.

“You are known for playing a ruthless style of politics,” Axios’ Jonathan Swan told McConnell during an interview. “Where do you draw your moral red lines?”

McConnell laughed, then replied: “I didn’t realize I was known for playing a ruthless — I thought, my wife thinks I’m a really nice guy.” McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, served as President Donald Trump’s transportation secretary from 2017 to 2021 and as President George W. Bush’s labor secretary from 2001 to 2009.

“My kids like me. I got a lot of friends,” McConnell added. “I’m shocked to hear such a comment.”

Swan pressed McConnell, saying that some people in the country might agree with the “ruthless” characterization and asking him again where he draws his “moral red lines.”

“I’m perfectly comfortable with the way that I have conducted my political career,” said McConnell, who’s served in the Senate since 1985. “I’m very comfortable with my moral red line.”

As Swan continued to question McConnell on his position, the Republican leader responded, “I say many things I’m sure people don’t understand.”

If you’re confused about what’s wrong with politics and this country, look no further than this admission from the Republican leader of the United States Senate. ] – DJ
