Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) praised President Trump on Sunday, saying he has not gotten enough credit for the changes he has brought about during his presidency.

"President Trump, I think, doesn't get nearly enough credit for the changes that he's brought about that are unrelated to legislation," he told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union."

The two men have sometimes appeared at odds, with Trump blaming McConnell for failing to successfully legislate his agenda. The Senate has also been slow to confirm Trump administration nominees, although McConnell praised the president for important appointments.

"I don't think President Trump has been given nearly enough credit, by the way, for the other things that he's doing to get the country growing again. And that is changing the people on these boards and commissions that have such a pervasive impact on growth in this country. The S.E.C., the Federal Communications Commission, the NLRB, the Food and Drug Administration," McConnell said.

McConnell: I'd be happy to bring a health care bill to the floor if I know Trump will sign it

BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 10/22/17 09:36 AM EDT

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said on Sunday he would be willing to bring a health care bill to the Senate floor if he had confidence President Trump would sign it into law.

"I'm not certain yet what the president is looking for here, but I'll be happy to bring a bill to the floor if I know President Trump will sign it," McConnell told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union."

"What I'm waiting is to hear from President Trump what kind of health care bill he might sign. If there's a need for some kind of interim step here to stabilize the market, we need a bill the president will actually sign," he continued.

The Senate leader's comments come after Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) and Patty Murray (D-Wash.) introduced legislation to stabilize ObamaCare markets.

1. Trump has only broken things

There hasn't been one positive result.
He's a freaking disaster.

[Glorfindel]

2. Yes, a thousand times yes!

"Freaking Disaster Trump (R)" would be a good way to describe the creature.

[Corgigal]

3. Get that tax break

I can see so many people in kentucky who can use all those funds. Hey, but our governor is trying to kill teachers by wiping out their pensions. Then who? Firemen and cops ? You're cutting off your nose to spite your face but I'm sure you'll leave the stage right after then. May I also suggest that you take that POS wife with you and leave the country.

This will be temporary, but the money grabbers must be obeyed. God forbid, for them if average working people figure this out. You're gonna stress a certain demographic that won't accept this well. Of course, it's their fault for getting sucked into identity politics when they should have been watching their own personal wallets. All you have to do to figure out these republicans future, look how the average Russian lives today.

4. 1. Trump is a sociopath and you ignore or enable him.

2. You are responsible for changing years of traditions. YOU STOLE a SCOTUS seat.

You have proven there are three sets of rules in the Senate.
Set 1. The well established rules that have always been followed by both parties for years.
Set 2. The set of rules that YOU decided did not advance your personal agenda or your parties agenda so you ignored them.
Set 3. The set of rules that have not yet conflicted with you or the GOP agenda BUT the ones you will change in a heart beat.

You have no respect for this country and it's laws and traditions. You will do anything to enrich yourself and your billionaires.

[Cryptoad]

5. No t me,,, Ive given him Credit

for everythang he done. I place all the blame at his feet.

[Saviolo]

6. A last desperate bid

For McConnell to suck up to Trump with a little bit of praise before the orange one completely shitcans whatever's left of McConnell's career. A little ego stroking, some flattery and maybe Trump's attack dogs over at Breitbart will lay off of McConnell a little. Really displays the self-interest. It's not even party over country for these jokers, it's every man for himself.

[SunSeeker]

7. Yep. Breitbart has been savaging McConnell.

My most virulently right wing relative has been posting disparaging memes and graphics of McConnell on Facebook. One of his favorites, juding by the times he's posted it, is McConnell in a bright red women's wig. Because, you know, righties believe the worse thing a man could be is a woman.

[SunSeeker]

8. Don't worry Mitch, I give DOTUS full credit for the White House shit show. nt

[NCjack]

9. Runnin' scared (out of his wits). nt

10. Hey Turtle you really are worthlessssssssssssssssssssss assssssssssssssssssss

Here is a prime example on how a asshole leads by BS making over $225,000 a year doing nothing, I mean really

You are waiting for some asshole playing golf, over 27 times now, disrespecting the fallen, over 43 so far and counting, raving about meaningless BS while he sits on a toilet and takes his morning dump, sending at fellow sociopaths to lie to the American people everyday at some podium, they make a mockery of, and you asshole pencil whipping every psychopath for federal judgeship's and cabinet positions, and then you say your f*cking waiting.

Hey asshole if you get a "bill" passed and this TRAITOR wants to veto the measure you can override his veto ( if our democrats want to help-------not much chance, because your an asshole that wants to hurt human beings) from this asshole that is so narcissistic and is a megalomaniac, that all your doing is punting and then you said this gem of absolute inept leadership:

You stood in the rose garden with this freak of insanity and listened to him babble like some MORON, and all you did was smile, when this f*ck head was challenged on Niger and him lying............................


Again turtle you and your party are really worthlesssssssssssssssss assssssssssssssssssssssss's

You spent over 35 million investigating a embassy in Libya, and your party has a leader that sits back and watches his member go to Russia and help with the criminality of blocking and interfering with a criminal investigation........................and all you do is say BS and tell BS to a lackey that is about right wing as her husband and didn't even challenge you


So in closing on this rant............................F*CK YOU, 2018 can't get here fast enough, so that we can hold "real" investigation of TREASON and absolute malfeasance of corruption, look no further on the courts and the cabinets that you CONFIRMED asshole


And then the lead in this story....................McConnell: Trump hasn't 'been given enough credit' for changes

What credit has he done......................sticking a middle finger up to America, and siding with Nazis white nationalist---------------you are f*cked up turtle, you really are a piece of work

[Thor_MN]

11. Mitch has had years to come up with a healthcare bill and has nothing

All he knows how to do is obstruct, he is devoid of ideas,

[rurallib]

12. "Blame" would be the word I would use

nor has McConnell gotten his fair share of blame, nor Ryan, nor Charles and David, certainly not the Mercers.

Sure would be nice to shine a huge spotlight on all these cockroaches.

[truthisfreedom]

13. You know those reality shows where everyone has a sledge hammer?

Yep.

[jmowreader]

14. The term is "blame," not "credit"

And is it just me, or is Lamar Alexander the only Republican in all of Congress that doesn't need to be stuffed into a rocket and fired at Pluto?

[Solly Mack]

15. I do blame him for his actions. If that's what you want to call giving him credit.

[mdbl]

16. I give him all the credit for all the stupidity that now exists in Government

Is that good enough for ya Mr McTurtle? Oh and Mitch, don't sell yourself short on that issue either. You've been doing it far longer.
