Bemoaning the country’s lack of civility,
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Monday that both sides of the political spectrum need to defuse the anger surrounding political discourse.
McConnell is a key ally of President
Donald Trump and has referred to himself as the “Grim Reaper” for his strategy of burying the legislative priorities of House
Democrats in the GOP-led Senate.
“We have a behavioral problem,” McConnell said in a speech after receiving an award from the Kentucky Electric Cooperatives at the group’s annual meeting.
