His dig, however, reflected frustrations in the GOP about controversial Republican Senate candidates with little or no political experience, championed by Trump, who are stumbling in the polls. Those include Mehmet Oz, running against Democratic Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman; Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance(running against Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan) and former football star Herschel Walker, who’s running for the Senate in Georgia against incumbent Democrat Raphael Warnock.
Even though Trump’s support doesn’t seem to be winning the race for the candidates, McConnell is not giving up the fight. The Super PAC allied with McConnell, the Senate Leadership Fund, is committing $28 million in a bid to save “Hillbilly Elegy” author Vance, who’s having a tough time raising funds, reports The Wall Street Journal.
