The Honorable Harry Reid, minority leader of the United States Senate, interviewed on CNN:
Reid appeared to take some joy of being a part of the Democrat machine that took down Romney in 2012.
“Let him prove that he has paid taxes, because he hasn’t,” Reid said on the Senate floor without any evidence to back his accusations.
When asked about his comments by CNN’s Dana Bash, Reid never rejected the notion his words were “McCarthyite” in nature. He admitted no wrongdoing.
“Well, they can call it whatever they want,” Reid said. “Romney didn’t win, did he?”
