Has McConnell Lost His Mind? Trump Seems To Think So

President Donald Trump torched former Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, calling him “not equipped mentally” after the disgraced establishment relic voted against Trump’s key Cabinet nominees—including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary.

“He’s a, you know, very bitter guy,” Trump told reporters, making it clear that McConnell’s political sellout was both expected and irrelevant.

McConnell Goes Full Swamp—Betrays the GOP

After spending years as the face of the Senate GOP, McConnell is now voting alongside Democrats in a desperate last-ditch effort to remain relevant.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth barely made it through after McConnell joined RINOs Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins in opposition, forcing Vice President JD Vance to break the tie.
McConnell was the only Republican to vote against Tulsi Gabbard for DNI—even Collins and Murkowski supported her.
Then, he single-handedly stood against RFK Jr. for HHS Secretary, doubling down on his outdated, big-government, pro-pharma stance.

A Senate GOP source put it bluntly:

“If Senator McConnell was looking to accelerate the deterioration of his legacy as the former Republican Senate leader, he’s succeeded.”

McConnell’s Last Stand? “Nothing to Lose” but His Reputation

With his reputation in shambles, McConnell has no real power left. GOP insiders admit he’s just trying to “make a statement” before he fades into political irrelevance.

One former Republican strategist revealed:

“The feelings he is expressing about Trump’s most controversial selections actually reflect those of a number of other senators. But they can’t oppose the picks themselves for fear of retribution by Trump or primary voters.”

Translation: McConnell is the GOP establishment’s sacrificial pawn, saying what the deep state really thinks—because he knows his career is already over.
