Tucker Carlson: ‘Hours after Donald Trump wins the most conclusive mandate in 40 years, Mitch McConnell engineers a coup against his agenda by calling early leadership elections. Two of the three candidates hate Trump and what he ran on’
Despite a landslide victory for Donald Trump and his “Make America Great Again” agenda last week, a ferocious battle has suddenly broken out in the U.S. Senate over who will be the chamber’s new leader, with some saying outgoing Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is trying to thwart the plans of the president-elect.

“What the hell is going on in the U.S. Senate?” Tucker Carlson is asking on X. “Hours after Donald Trump wins the most conclusive mandate in 40 years, Mitch McConnell engineers a coup against his agenda by calling early leadership elections in the Senate.
“Two of the three candidates hate Trump and what he ran on. One of them, John Cornyn, is an angry liberal whose politics are indistinguishable from Liz Cheney’s. The election is Wednesday, it’s by secret ballot, and it will determine whether or not the new administration succeeds. Rick Scott of Florida is the only candidate who agrees with Donald Trump. Call your senator and demand a public endorsement of Rick Scott. Don’t let McConnell get away with it again.”
Besides Scott and Cornyn, the other senator whose name is in the mix for majority leader is John Thune of South Dakota.
With the leadership fight now under way, Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur who fiercely campaigned for Trump’s return to the White House, made his pick known, saying: “Rick Scott for Senate Majority Leader!”
