Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told reporters Friday he is slowly becoming a supporter of President Donald Trump’s use of Twitter.
McConnell, who has taken some heat from Trump on Twitter in the past, told reporters in a press conference on Capitol Hill that he is slowly warming up to the presidents tweets, saying he is now a fan.
“Well, in regards to the presidents tweeting habits, I haven’t been a fan until this week,” McConnell said. “I’m warming up to the tweets, actually.”
