According to CNN Mitch McConnell “laughed off” Trump’s attacks and plans on “ignoring the president at all costs.”
CNN reported:
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell had an instant reaction when seeing the lengthy attack he endured from former President Donald Trump.
He laughed about it, according to a source familiar with the matter.
The reaction underscores how McConnell plans to navigate the post-Trump era: Focus squarely on winning back the Senate majority — while ignoring the former President at all costs.
Indeed, amid their fallout following the deadly US Capitol riot at the hands of Trump supporters, McConnell has made the calculation that he’s done with the former President and is moving on, according to sources close to the GOP leader. And after Trump issued a blistering attack on McConnell, riddled with false statements and personal broadsides, the GOP leader has no plans to respond, the sources said.

Another source familiar with the matter said it was a "nervous" laugh.
Sometime I would like to lose everything and see who my real friends are.
Mitch has declared.
If that pointed, very public remark by Trump is what it took to make Mitch finally shut his mouth on this topic, then I say
Mission Accomplished!
He was out of control and out of order last week.
The GOP will never be a MAGA party.
They have been fully invested in Making America North Mexico for 30 years.
GOP - RIP
the sooner, the better
Yep. His best course of action is to shut up.
CNN.
But...but...but, we must remain Republicans!
The GOP can go to hell! I’m done with the Republican Party!
I try to ignore The Turtle as much as possible.
Sure- every-time Mitch views his third chin in the mirror, and feels it slap against his chest in a windstorm, He’ll think about Trump- Trump now has full occupancy in mitch’s brain-
Mitch is a treacherous prick.
Bury him next to Paul RINO.
Let’s take out Mitch’s liutenant and hand-picked successor, John Thune.
Let him ignore that.
Ummm, maybe that's not what should concern you. Maybe it would be wiser to do a little introspection and check what kind of friend you are to others, not what kind of friend they are to you.
In the end, that's all you have, and you'd better hope that your status is a condition you can live with, going forward.
Mitch , unless you send me Certified eMails . . . . I WILL ignore you!
From the article: “And after Trump issued a blistering attack on McConnell, riddled with false statements”
What were Trump’s false statements?
Totally agree! I am done with the GOP and won’t come back. How insulting is it that the RNC raised over a quarter of a billion dollars to “fund” Trump’s contesting of the election yet, not one dime went to Trump’s team. Now they insult us with promoting election integrity?
Uh, no!
Idiot. Ignore Trump at your own peril.

....
Yep! It’s a disgrace!
If Trump ever runs again, and does it as a Republican, I will not! I will also not be shamed into staying a Republican! The Party is infected with Trump hating RINOs!
Probably should have done that BEFORE he shot off his mouth.
