(CNN) President Donald Trump is now learning, in the words of his Rolling Stones campaign anthem, that he can t always get what he wants. Sen. Mitch McConnell, on the other hand, usually does.
The Republican Senate majority leader chose Tuesday, the day after the Electoral College affirmed President-elect Joe Biden s victory, as the moment to pull the floor out from under the defeated President. He belatedly congratulated his old Senate colleague 38 days after his election victory that Trump still denies.
Putting his authority on the line, McConnell also asked his Senate colleagues not to stage any stunts when Congress meets for a joint session to ratify the election on January 6, effectively crushing the President s hopes of an 11th hour reprieve, CNN reported.
