The GOP has turned on the Minority Leader…

After the Senate failed to deliver a viable border bill, Republicans are directing their frustrations at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell for dropping the ball on the much-needed legislation.

During a closed-door Republican meeting Monday, Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, posted a fundraising link asking donors to “kill this border bill” and demanded “new leadership” for the party.

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., posted a meme depicting McConnell as Charlie Brown attempting to kick a football being held by Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, I-Ariz., and said later that he has been “super unhappy” since the discussions on the compromise bill started.

“Leader McConnell completely blew this,” he added.

McConnell conceded Monday that the bill is headed for failure. It has come under attack by Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who rejected its future in the House, with several GOP senators attacking it on social media and television interviews.

While McConnell is facing intense criticism over the failed border bill, some senators are defending the embattles Kentuckian. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said blaming McConnell for the border bill’s failure is “a bit misplaced” while Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) said it’s “not Mitch’s fault” about the bill’s failure, nor Sen. Lankford’s, who he said “did the best he could under the circumstances.”
