Donald Trump’s latest diplomat pick has been confronted for attacking Mitch McConnell’s declining health, including comparing him to Joe Biden and calling him a “decrepit old mob boss.” Donald Trump with Nate Morris Nate Morris/LinkedinMorris, a businessman and former politician, entered the race last year to succeed the 84-year-old senator, pitching himself as a political outsider and loyal supporter of Trump’s MAGA movement. But during his campaign, the feisty 45-year-old boasted he wanted to “trash McConnell’s legacy” by drawing attention to his ailing health. But while McConnell wasn’t mentioned by name, Utah Republican John Curtis questioned Morris about the “harsh words you’ve said against one of my colleagues.” Morris' past attacks came back to haunt him during his confirmation hearing.
