Former President Donald Trump tore into Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) during a political fundraiser at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Saturday, calling him a dumb son of a bitch, while also ridiculing McConnells wife, according to The Washington Post .

Trump was speaking at a Republican National Committee gathering in Palm Beach when he criticized McConnell and fellow Republicans for, in his opinion, not doing enough to overturn the 2020 election including during the Jan. 6 election certification of President Joe Biden .

During that certification, Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in response to his call for them to go to the Capitol and fight like hell. The riot resulted in at least five deaths and hundreds of arrests .

If that were (Sen. Chuck) Schumer (D-N.Y.) instead of this dumb son of a bitch Mitch McConnell they would never allow it to happen. They would have fought it, Trump said of his defeat.
