President Trump touted his relationship with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., on Monday, claiming they are “closer than ever” just months after he attacked the top Senate Republican in a series of bitter tweets.

“We just spent quite a bit of time inside with the Senate Majority Leader, who’s been a friend of mine for a long time – long before my world of politics,” Trump told reporters after meeting with McConnell to discuss the Senate’s legislative agenda.

“We are probably now, despite what we read, I think … closer than ever before,” Trump added.

“My relationship with this gentleman is outstanding — has been outstanding,” Trump told reporters, adding that he and McConnell are “working very hard.”
