Mitch McConnell: “If people can devolve that much, I don't know how we reckon with race in America.”

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

I’m still working hard to get back to my full schedule of work in the Senate and in Kentucky, keeping up with intense physical therapy per my doctors’ orders. Unfortunately, that means I won’t be able to make it to Fancy Farm, Kentucky…

When I first attended forty-two years ago, Fancy Farm was a pretty lonely place to be a Republican.

And I’ll continue to engage with my staff and colleagues on important Senate business.
