I am not inside his head but it seems McConnell just wants pure power and will say and do anything that gives it to him. He certainly has zero empathy for people who need help. In many ways he, and those like him, are much more dangerous than Trump, who was incoherent, largely directionless and often ineffective. But as a 1-2 team they were and are a serious threat to America. One stirs people up and raises money, the other actually directs that anger and energy towards destructive ends. Hence McConnell stays with him even seeing that Trump will betray anyone. I suppose he bets that like the old movie, "Dracula Has Risen From the Grave", The Donald will return.
