The statement follows a report in The New York Times saying McConnell has privately expressed uncertainty as to whether Trump can rebound from his series of controversies.

McConnell also released his own statement on Wednesday, insisting the two are dedicated to a “shared agenda.”

"We have a lot of work ahead of us, and we are committed to advancing our shared agenda together and anyone who suggests otherwise is clearly not part of the conversation," McConnell said in a statement.

The White House said McConnell and Trump will be holding previously scheduled meetings after the congressional recess.

“House and leadership staff are coordinating regarding the details of those meetings,” Sanders said.
