Trump is going to make McConnell regret the day he ever tried to accuse Trump of being to blame for Congress not being able to accomplish anything this year. Here he is taking a question about McConnell stepping down, suggesting he should do just that if he can’t get Obamacare repealed and taxes done:
Should McConnell consider stepping down?

Earlier today Trump trolled McConnell twice on Twitter:
Can you believe that Mitch McConnell, who has screamed Repeal & Replace for 7 years, couldn't get it done. Must Repeal & Replace ObamaCare!

Mitch, get back to work and put Repeal & Replace, Tax Reform & Cuts and a great Infrastructure Bill on my desk for signing. You can do it!

The last one came just a couple hours ago.
I think Mitch is going to think twice before he speaks on this again.
