Trump’s second presidency is ‘most dangerous period’ since second world war, Mitch McConnell says

Former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell warned of a dangerously unstable global situation, drawing parallels to the 1930s. He criticized the Trump administration's trade policies, particularly tariffs, and lack of preparedness against authoritarian regimes like Russia, China, and North Korea. McConnell expressed concern about the US's response to the Ukraine conflict and the potential for a Russian victory. Despite his criticism, he declined to directly attack Trump, citing a commitment to party unity. His interview comes ahead of his upcoming retirement.
