Trump accused the Republican leader of being in cahoots with Democrats on the skyrocketing debt ceiling. “It’s crazy, what’s happening with this debt ceiling. Mitch McConnell keeps allowing this to happen. They ought to impeach Mitch McConnell, if he allows that,” Trump said. “They have something on him, how he approves this thing is incredible.”
