LEVELAND ― Mitch McConnell took the stage at the Republican National Convention on Tuesday night shortly after Donald Trump formally received the party’s nomination. It was a primetime opportunity for the Senate majority leader to sing the praises of his party’s standard-bearer on a national stage.

But the most McConnell could muster was that Trump would sign the bills that McConnell would send to his desk.

The Kentucky senator’s speech was long on pillorying Hillary Clinton and short on celebrating the Republican nominee. He only mentioned Trump’s name when he rattled off a series of bills that the GOP Congress passed and President Barack Obama vetoed. Each time, he simply said, “Donald Trump would sign it.”

“With Donald Trump in the White House, Senate Republicans will build on the work we’ve done and pass more bills into law than any Senate in years,” McConnell said.

1. Can you blame them? They really aren't happy about trump..

They have to be there at the convention, they are the republican leaders in congress. I'm sure they wouldn't mind having a personal crisis so they could leave.
