Trump's supporters boo Mitch McConnell despite his saying he'd 'absolutely' support the former

president in 2024

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's recent openness toward backing a 2024 presidential run by former President Donald Trump did not save the senator from boos during a speech by Trump on Sunday.

During Trump's speech at the influential Conservative Political Action Conference - an event to which McConnell was reportedly not invited - he took credit for McConnell's success in reclaiming his seat as a Kentucky senator last year.

"My endorsement of Mitch McConnell - at his request--" Trump said to loud boos from the audience as he went on to credit his endoresement of McConnell for the senator's reelection victory in Kentucky in November.

Trump had formed a close political alliance with McConnell, who was the Senate majority leader until January, and repeatedly endorsed him before the 2020 US election. But the pair have clashed since the deadly January 6 riot at the US Capitol, for which McConnell has held Trump responsible.

You should know by now Moscow Mitch that Trump is loyal to no one but himself.
