Former President Donald Trump ( https://www.olumorocktv.com/trump-wishes-happy-easter-tribute-to-radical-left-crazies-who-want-to-destroy-our-country/)">https://www.olumorocktv.com/trump-wis... ripped into Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell before the retreat of Republican National Committee donors on Saturday, calling him an "idiot." son of bitch.
Trump turned to preparations in a speech of about 50 minutes, and then in front of hundreds of wealthy GOPdonors in his Mar-a-Lago resort in South Florida, he said he felt about former Vice President Mike Pence "Disappointed", called last year& #39;s presidential election "fraud"…
…and mocked Dr. Anthony Fucci.
The former president ( https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.politico.com/amp/news/2021/04/11/trump-mcconnell-dumb-son-of-a-bitch-rnc-480748)">https://www.google.com/amp/s/www... spent several minutes tearing into McConnell, saying that he didn’t do enough to defend him during the February impeachment trial.
At one point, three people familiar with the remarks said, Trump called the Senate GOP leader a “dumb son of a bitch.”
Trump also went after McConnell’s wife, former Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, for resigning her cabinet post after the Jan. 6 insurrection.

A spokesperson for McConnell, the Kentucky Republican who was just reelected to a seventh six-year term last year, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The latest verbal broadside against McConnell, the most powerful Republican still in elected office, comes as Trump reemerges as a dominant force in GOP politics.
The former president has, in recent days, sought to rev up his small-dollar fundraising apparatus, and he is issuing a steady stream of endorsements for the 2022 midterm elections, in addition to battles over state party chairmanships.
Though many of Trump& #39;s 2022 endorsements align with McConnell& #39;s preferences, including backing a number of incumbent GOP senators for reelection, he has occasionally gotten crosswise with the Senate leader. Trump has pledged to oppose GOP Sen.
Lisa Murkowski in next year& #39;s Alaska elections after Murkowski voted for his conviction in the Senate trial, though McConnell and his top allies say they will support Murkowski& #39;s reelection.
It isn’t the first time Trump has gone after McConnell since leaving office.
In February, Trump released an extensive statement bashing McConnell for being “a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack.” The statement came just days after McConnell took to the Senate floor to flay Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection.
