“I honestly thought we wouldn’t hold the U.S. Senate,” the Kentucky Republican told Kentucky Educational Television’s “One to One with Bill Goodman” on Monday night. “I thought we’d come up short, and I didn’t think President Trump had a chance of winning.”

Republicans were defending 24 of the 34 Senate seats at stake last month. But it had a net loss of only two, and next year it will control 52 of the Senate’s 100 seats.

“I thought we’d come up short in the Senate. We had a lot of exposure,” McConnell said. A lot of the seats were in “very difficult states for us in presidential years.”

The Senate victories were “really something,” McConnell said, “but it never occurred to me he (Trump) might be able to win as well.”

the dog who caught the car. Now you have to govern. Now you have to take away health care from Kentucky miners. Now you have to try to save coal. Good luck with that.
