Former President Donald Trump blamed Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) for the Republican’s performance in the midterm elections.

“It’s Mitch McConnell’s fault. Spending money to defeat great Republican candidates instead of backing Blake Masters and others was a big mistake,” Trump posted to his social media platform Truth Social.

Masters, who was endorsed by Trump in the Arizona Senate race, lost to Democratic incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly.

The entire GOP leadership blew the midterms.  There is more than enough blame to go around, and enough for seconds, too.

So does anyone with an undamaged frontal lobe.

For starters, McConnell transferred money from Blake Masters in AZ for Joe O'Dea (RDS's guy) in Colorado who lost by 20 points, and pulled funding from Gen. Don Boulduc in NH ten days before the election ---- just as the General was surging in the polls and looked like he had a path to victory.

That's the guy Trump needed to be attacking all along.

Exactly

The “let’s blame it all on Donald Trump”  meme is only part of it

Agree....

From the top, I'd give the blame 50/50 between Trump and the McC (worthless) boys.

Trump gave us Ronna, Oz, And Walker.  Turdle mismanaged and mishandled GOP campaign money and direction.

We'll be much better when all 3 guys are put to pasture.
