Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said on Monday that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s “scathing” comments about former President Donald Trump do not represent the viewpoint of the majority of the GOP.

“You got Leader McConnell, voting not guilty, not to convict, but then just providing a scathing speech on the floor of the Senate,” Johnson told radio host Jay Weber. “That does not reflect the majority of our conference.”
