McConnell walks back 'warning' he had issued to corporations to stay out of politics

[left-of-center2012]

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday walked back a “warning” he had issued to corporations earlier in the week to “stay out of politics.”

At an event in Louisville on Tuesday, when asked about several corporations’ denouncements of Republican-backed efforts to restrict voting access in Georgia, McConnell said he thought it was “stupid” for companies like Delta, Coca-Cola and Major League Baseball to wade into political issues.

“My warning, if you will, to corporate America is to stay out of politics. It’s not what you’re designed for,” McConnell said.

However now McConnell says:
“I’m not talking about political contributions.”
