McConnell acknowledges GOP faces 'challenging' political environment
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Wednesday acknowledged that Republicans face a "challenging environment" as they battle to protect their Senate majority.
"We have a lot of exposure, a lot of great members up. We had a really good year in '14, and so yeah, it's a challenging environment," McConnell told reporters.
He said Republicans are in a tough spot because they have to protect 23 Senate seats, compared to just 12 for Democrats.
Among those dozen seats, only Sen. Doug Jones of Alabama is truly endangered. But Republicans think they have a shot at knocking off Sen. Gary Peters (D) of Michigan, a state Trump carried in 2016.

Since McConnell and Trump shit the proverbial bed I'd say challenging is an understatement.
