Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is arguably one of the most powerful people in the country. How did he get there? This hour-long special from NPR News and the “ Embedded” podcast will take listeners on a journey. It traces McConnell’s career: from some of his earliest election races, to the huge - but largely unknown - influence he’s had in blocking campaign finance reform, to his relationship with a most unlikely ally, President Donald Trump. The program will include excerpts of rare, sit-down interviews with McConnell himself.
