Trump impeachment: Lisa Murkowski ‘disturbed’ by Mitch McConnell’s stance
Republican senator unhappy with Senate leader saying he was working in ‘total coordination’ with White House
Republican US Senator Lisa Murkowski has said she was “disturbed” by the Senate leader’s approach to working with White House counsel on the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump, saying there should be distance between the two.
The comments by the Alaska lawmaker come after Mitch McConnell, majority leader of the Republican-led Senate, said during a Fox News interview earlier this month that he was working in “total coordination” with the White House on the upcoming trial.
