McConnell won’t say whether Trump is qualified to be president
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., wouldn’t say in a Sunday interview whether he believes Donald Trump is qualified to be president.
“I’ll leave that to the American people to decide,” McConnell said on ABC’s “This Week With George Stephanopoulos.” “You know, he won the Republican [nomination] fair and square. He got more votes than anybody else against a whole lot of well-qualified candidates. And so our primary voters have made their decision as to who they want to be the nominee. The American people will be able to make that decision in the fall.”
According to an ABC News/Washington Post national poll released Sunday, Trump trails Hillary Clinton by 12 points (51 percent to 39 percent) among likely general election voters. And the same survey, conducted after the mass shooting in Orlando, Fla., found 64 percent of Americans don’t think Trump is qualified to be commander in chief.
“It’s a long time until November,” McConnell said. “And the burden, obviously, will be on him to convince people that he can handle this job.”
