What evidence is there of McConnel having access to Trump after Jan 6? I have the impression that their relationship cooled. McConnel stated that Tump “provoked” the mob on the senate floor.

- ceejayoz 6y ago"Tell him we'll convict in the Senate if he fucks around" is access, even if it's not direct face-to-face.
- Larrikin 6y agoMcconnell does not leak, those quotes coming out in public were pressure campaigns. It's unknown obviously what was directly said to him.
- SV_BubbleTime 6y agoWell for one; McConnell could have gone through with an impeachment vote had Trump started to burn things down on his way out the door. Do you think the House pushed through breakneck-speed impeachment vote, breaking almost all of the rules about witnesses, testimony, procedure all for fun? No, that was calculated to keep Trump in line I think. Removing all platforms from him, looming impeachment or other threats, publicly denouncing him after four years of pretending to be MAGA... Now, I don’t have a CNN article to make my case. So maybe you are right.
