Trump says ‘I don’t know’ about McConnell’s condition despite hospital photo

Published



President Donald Trump said he does not know whether Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is recovering and acknowledged he has little information about the Kentucky Republican’s condition, despite McConnell releasing a photo of himself from the hospital.

“I don’t hear much. I was, you know, never a huge fan, but he’s one of the people who should be voting for John Thune, because you know John Thune was loyal to him,” Trump said in an interview with Newsmax.
