Trump urges Senate GOP to dump Mitch McConnell

Donald Trump urged Republican senators Tuesday to dump Mitch  McConnell as their leader in the Senate following his withering  criticism of the former US president after his impeachment trial. In  his most extensive comments yet on politics since stepping down from  power on January 20, Trump also threatened to use his influence against  party candidates who don't align with him. He called the longtime senator "dour, sullen"  and warned that "if Republican  Senators are going to stay with him, they will not win again."
