Trump berated McConnell on the phone, which triggered a shouting match:

Manu Raju of CNN added that Trump exploded in rage over the Russia sanctions bill:

The question of what Russia has on Trump should be at the front of a lot of minds this evening. Why would Trump be advocating for Russia after they attacked the presidential election that Trump won? The obvious answer is that Trump was fully complicit in whatever collusion went down between his campaign and the Russian government. A deeper answer goes back to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s ongoing investigation into Trump’s financial dealings with the Russians.

There has been a lot of talk that the President is compromised. Russia has dirt and information on Trump that could bring him down. Some even speculate that Putin is blackmailing Trump. The more likely answer is that Trump has deep financial ties to Russia that he would like to keep a secret. The Russian government helped Trump win the election, and his end of the deal was supposed to be the lifting of sanctions.

Donald Trump is obsessed with Russia, but the Russia scandal is where his crimes are. Trump is losing it, and alienating the Senate Majority Leader who controls his fate could be the final mistake that undoes the Trump presidency.
