President Donald Trump on Twitter knocked the woman challenging Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), noting she'd made a remark about the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.

“Democrats are coming after our great Kentucky Senator, Mitch McConnell, with someone who compared my election to September 11,” he wrote on Twitter late July 9.
