Republican says McConnell fired a warning shot to Trump nominees — you're not 'automatic'

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) just fired a warning shot at President-elect Donald Trump's nominees, a Republican strategist opined on CNN late Friday.

McConnell has taken swipes at President-elect Donald Trump in recent days, and Friday, blasted an aide to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has pushed to revoke approval for the polio vaccine.

McConnell contracted the disease as a young child and still suffers from stiffness in his legs, which makes it hard for him to walk. He sent a thinly veiled warning to Kennedy in a statement.
