Mitch McConnell: “I am concerned Trump could do to the GOP with Hispanics what Goldwater did to the GOP with African-Americans essentially…”

But, my, how times have changed. Today, western Kentucky is a conservative Republican sea of red.

Elaine and I are grateful for the many well wishes and support from friends, colleagues, and Kentuckians, and for the attentive care I've received from excellent doctors, nurses, therapists, and hospital staff.

I'll maintain an intensive regimen of physical therapy from home during the state work period, and I'll continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.

As always, I appreciate all of your continued well wishes, and I’m looking forward to getting back to the Senate and to Kentucky soon.
