Mitch McConnell actually said...

"Everything I do doing this, I'm coordinating with White House counsel. There will be no difference between the president's position and our position as to how to handle this."

"I'm not partial about this at all. This is a political exercise."

"Why are they holding it because if they think that by holding it it's going to make me negotiate and give something away that I don't want to give away or maybe agree to witnesses that I don't want to..."

"Mitch McConnell told the truth and said, I'm not partial. Yes, he told the truth, it's a rare thing in D.C."
