When asked about The Washington Post story released Monday that Trump revealed classified information during a meeting with Russian officials, McConnell told Bloomberg the explanation which national security adviser H.R. McCaster made to reporters in front of the White House “tends to refute the story.”

“I think we could do with a little less drama from the White House,” McConnell said at an event, his first public comments on the allegations. “We could focus on our agenda, which is the regulations, tax reform, repealing and replacing Obamacare.”
