The long-standing dispute between former President Donald Trump and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has been heating for years, but it is starting to reach a zenith.

Not only have the midterm primary results been decidedly in Trump's approval vs. McConnell candidates, but now Trump wants "a new Republican leader in the Senate to be picked immediately," he wrote in a pointed Save America PAC statement posted Wednesday to Truth Social.

"The Democrats have Mitch McConnell and his lovely wife, Elaine 'Coco' Chao, over a barrel," the statement started. "He and she will never be prosecuted, as per the last paragraphs of this story, as long as he continues to give the radical left the trillions and trillions of dollars they constantly demand."

Trump has long criticized McConnell's feebleness in standing up to Senate Democrats' spending and legislative agenda. Still, with the midterms just a few months away, Trump is now calling for new Republican leadership in the Senate.

"He was afraid to use the 'debt ceiling card' to stop the most expensive waste of money in our country's history, to be spent on the Green New Deal, which will only cause one thing, a Depression," Trump's statement trashing McConnell added. "These expenditures are something our country can never recover from.

"Mitch McConnell is not an opposition leader. He is a pawn for the Democrats to get whatever they want. He is afraid of them and will not do what has to be done. A new Republican Leader in the Senate should be picked immediately!"

The story claims a "corruption," "influence," and grifting scheme on behalf of Chao's shipping company with China.

Chao was Trump's Transportation Secretary until she resigned after the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6.

The report from The Federalist stated: "In 2021, months after she resigned from the Trump administration, the Office of Inspector General for the Department of Transportation released a report confirming that Chao 'used her official position and taxpayer resources for the benefit of herself and her family.'

"Evidence of wrongdoing in the OIG report was communicated in a criminal referral to the Department of Justice U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia and the DOJ Public Integrity Section, but none of the agencies decided to open an investigation."
