Trump Slashes at 'Dumb Son of a Bitch' McConnell


April 11, 2021 at 6:15 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

“Former president Donald Trump called Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell a ‘dumb son of a bitch’ as he used a Saturday night speech to Republicans to blame him for not helping overturn the 2020 election and reiterated false assertions that he won the November contest,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Trump: “If that were Schumer instead of this dumb son of a bitch Mitch McConnell they would never allow it to happen. They would have fought it.”

He later called McConnell a “stone cold loser.”

Politico: “Trump veered off his prepared during a roughly 50-minute speech before several hundred well-heeled GOP donors at his Mar-a-Lago resort in South Florida, saying that he was ‘disappointed’ in former Vice President Mike Pence, calling last year’s presidential election a ‘fraud’ and mocking Dr. Anthony Fauci.”

Mitch should have held Trump accountable the first time he got caught betraying the country.

he knew it wasn't a winning position. If he thought they could get away with installing Agent Orange, he'd have been on board 100%.

Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, tells NPR that the military "will obey the lawful orders of civilian control of the military."

the cards were not falling in Agent Orange's direction, so he jumped ship.

Reading Michael Cohen's book now. Even he illustrates how Trump has to WIN, no matter how much it costs and who he hurts.

Those who go along with this ego driven orange madman, are as DELUSIONAL as he is.

As Mr. T would say...."I pity da fools..."

Mitch kept the senate from convicting him in 2 senate trials after he was impeached, knew all about
Russia installing him in 2016 and kept tat treason hidden, and helped Trump pack the Supreme Court.

It's part of Trump's repeated insults that anyone who strays from loyalty to him is a "loser." The reference here is that even Schumer has more of a backbone than McConnell, that those no good socialist Democrats at least know enough to not just roll over and allow an election to be stolen from them

It's the ravings of a lunatic.

If Schumer had been Majority leader, TFG would have been convicted after his first impeachment, because Senate Majority. So there's that.

Lyin' Ted was one of Donny's biggest foes in the primaries, then Trump called Cruz's wife ugly and implied Cruz's father was involved in killing JFK... now, Teddy is one of Trump's obedient lap dogs.
