Trump gives McConnell insult-filled ultimatum on Biden agenda

[highplainsdem]

Former President Donald Trump ripped into Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) once again on Wednesday, giving the leader an invective-filled ultimatum to stand firm against raising the debt ceiling and keep his conference unified against President Biden’s spending agenda.

Trump blasted his former Senate ally as “stupid” and a “fool” and accused him of “incompetence” in a long, tangled statement that jumped from expressing displeasure over Republican votes on a procedural motion related to raising the debt limit in October, to Congress’s passage of the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill this month, to the ongoing Democratic talks over a social spending bill.

“McConnell is a fool and he damn well better stop their ‘Dream of Communism Bill’ and keep his Senators in line, or he should resign now, something he should have done a long time ago. Use the Debt Ceiling like it should have been used, you Old Broken Crow, to do so would hurt our Country far less than this horrible Bill,” Trump declared in a statement released through his Save America PAC.

“Mitch McConnell couldn’t stop the first Bill so 19 Senators, including himself, joined in. That’s what he does—if you can’t beat them, join them. If he wasn’t so stupid and didn’t give the two-month extension, he could have stopped it all. Now he and his RINO friends will allow a much bigger and far worse Bill to pass, ruining our Country while giving the Democrats a great political lift, all at the same time,” he said.

Trump might actually win awards, if they gave awards for being a crybaby and an asshole.

His statements are getting more and more pathetic. I hope he's alienating at least some Republicans and independents with these crazy diatribes.

1. Good lord

The man is a raving lunatic. This is what we get from supposed "adults" now??

How can the bill ruin the country while also giving Democrats a political lift? That makes ZERO sense.

[Submariner]

2. I bet McConnell could shoot trump in the middle of 5th Avenue

and get away with it.

[Talitha]

17. I like the way you think!

[calimary]

32. So do I!

[Stuart G]

3. Stupidity is still ...STUPIDITY!!!..Not smart to attack Mitch McConnell this way....But then again..

Trump has proven many times over..that he is ..NOT SMART..!! JUST 1 EXAMPLE:.. "IT IS ALL A HOAX.."

[Fla Dem]

4. The news shows need to really jack this up so people will pay attention instead of the ridiculous

crap they've been spewing "Kamala's doing a horrible job", "Biden's failing".

Compare these antics of the TFG to the great success of the infrastructure bill.

[Evolve Dammit]

53. That's what he does. Mob boss, shock jock bully. All he knows. Fred and Roy Cohn taught.

[sheshe2]

5. He is stark raving mad. nt

[usaf-vet]

6. At this rate by 2024. McTurtle will be saying Donald? Trump? can say I've have ever met them.

Why would you juggle a hand grenade with the pin falling out?

Even McTurtle can be that suicidal!... Can he?

[monkeyman1]

7. McConnell - " TFG - oh , crap , you mean bunker boy in Florida " ?

[Justice matters.]

8. Projection, projection, pro.jec.tion...

The orange terrorist is only projection on two sticks:

"ruining our Country" from the criminal twit who added $8 Trillion to the debt and lied about a virus that killed over 700K he didn't care about for months and even did everything he could to make it WORSE!

[Evolve Dammit]

54. couldn't have been more willfully homicidal. Seriously wonder why he hasn't been charged. How many

dead would be enough? The fact that he has not been charged with ANYTHING is mind-numbing.

[Faux pas]

9. ...

he needs to be muzzled for the world's sake.

[monkeyman1]

33. he would be if the republican would just denounce the butt face ?

[question everything]

10. And this, after giving hi all the judges. Does the turtle really think this will be

his legacy?

He can still save some vertebrae by actually increasing the debt ceiling.

[mopinko]

11. how would this work?

"ruining our Country while giving the Democrats a great political lift, all at the same time"

[dweller]

12. What.ever

COMRADE …. now go give daddyvlad a sloppy buttkiss


✌🏻

[turbinetree]

13. Isn't this same "guy" that basically gave him three judges that should not even be on the

bench and all the others from the federalist society.......Communism Bill.....what the fuck is a communism bill....

[RobertDevereaux]

14. Trump needs to be flipped way the fuck off . . . by everyone!

[YoshidaYui]

15. I am glad he is not on TWITTER , but still I wish there was a way to

tell him to go fuck himself, and if he gets his ire up and says You can't talk to the President LIKE that, I can remind him he is NOT A FUCKING KING .. SHOVE it up your ass!

[William Seger]

16. "If you can't beat them..."

... just lie about it, you Old Broken Crow. Hasn't TFG taught you anything?

[certainot]

18. last time routine debt ceiling raise was seriously threatened (2011) may have been a russian move

in 2011 putin was already using limbaugh. that year limbaugh pushed the tea bags (possible russian creation) to oppose raising the debt, telling them them for many weeks US couldn't possibly default and later that even if we did it was no big deal.

10 years later here we go again, but now without limbaugh. how many republican millionaires want US to default? not many. but putin would love it.

[geardaddy]

19. Hey Donny, if you wanna call

paying and supporting infrastructure in the country communism, then go for it you Fascist douche.

[BlueJac]

20. Fuck Mitch I hope he ate it like candy

[Hekate]

21. GOPers will either wake up or fall in line: either way it'll be interesting to see nt

[rurallib]

22. who cares what Trump does?

maybe someone will piss on him and shut him up

[monkeyman1]

34. won't work , he enjoys it !! remember ?

[jmowreader]

23. What is truly amazing...

…is McConnell sits there and takes it.

[Lonestarblue]

31. McConnell has one goal now, and that is to become Majority Leader again.

He needs the deranged Trump voters to do that, so he will say nothing. But if Trump runs again in 2024 and wins (legally or by other means), McConnell may find himself out of the leadership role because Trump will go after him and insist that he not be allowed that position. Republicans senators will be so afraid of his power by then that they’ll do whatever he wants. McConnell would be smarter yo fight back now and ensure that Trump is not the candidate in 2024.

[RobinA]

45. Really

The only power Trump has is the power they hand him. He’s the man behind the curtain and they think he’s the great and powerful Oz.

[Jim__]

24. So, has McConnell kissed Trump's big fat ass yet?

Get it over with Mitch. You know you're going to do it.

[patphil]

25. Interesting. He claims the Build Back Better bill will ruin the country...

but at the same time give the Democrats a great political lift. All in the same sentence!

Does he actually have a connection between his mouth and his brain?

[RobinA]

46. Apparently,

hé doesn’t need it.

[tinrobot]

26. If he couldn't pass an infrastructure bill, then nobody gets to pass an infrastructure bill.

The idiot is nothing more than a spoiled child knocking over the board because he lost.

[Marthe48]

27. and r's say 'Ty sir, may I have another?'

Again and again.

[PortTack]

28. My money has always been on the turtle. Guess it turns out he's useful for something?

[KS Toronado]

29. If TFG keeps pissing Moscow Mitch off

He's sly enough to figure out a way to kill tfg politically and paint the picture Democrats done it
while he hides behind the curtain so the trumpers don't get mad at him.

[monkeyman1]

35. moscow mitch created " TFG" ,now can't figure out how to dump the sob !

[NJCher]

36. I'd like to think that

But he's had ample opportunities to do so and he hasn't--probably for the reasons cited upthread.

However, McC may just be waiting for the appropriate opportunity and we all know that could come at any time.

------------

I think this diatribe by trump is more evidence of his worsening mental condition. Not only is what he said grossly immature, it's illogical and completely off the rails. No "statesman" has ever behaved like this. His pettiness is unparalleled.

It truly is embarrassing. His family needs to stage an intervention. They need to get him off the public stage and for their own future financial viability, out of the business.

[KS Toronado]

39. As much as I'd like to see him off the public stage

Sometimes I wonder if his attempts to control the entire R party from a golf course are dividing them
going into the midterms and he's unwittingly helping us?

[BobTheSubgenius]

30. Once again, irony the size and ferocity of a nova finds its way into print.

And with no commentary at all. "Stupid" "Fool" and "Incompetence?" Really? I wouldn't be surprised if that release was the work of a ghost writer cleaning up the dictation.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

37. It appears that Moscow Mitch has broken Trump.

Link to tweet

[Steelrolled]

38. It seems the news media still hangs on Trump's every word.

That's the way he likes it.

[dchill]

40. Why do I keep thinking about that time in the Star Wars saga...

...when Han Solo was cast in Carbonite?

[toughtony]

41. HE NEVER EVEN READ THE DAMN THING!

Trump doesn't even know what's in the bill cause he never read. Neither has Monkey Taylor Gross or pedo bobert. Trump still thinks he's president. He still thinks he can boss people around. little does he know, THEY ARE ALL USING HIM to get to his lunatic cult base. If mcconnel wanted to, he could just tell him to f...k off!

[orleans]

42. "you Old Broken Crow"

[Irish_Dem]

43. "Old Broken Crow" is an odd pejorative to use against Turtle.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

44. Tourette's

[dalton99a]

47. And this piece of shit was president of the United States

[Kid Berwyn]

52. Heh.

[bucolic_frolic]

48. May he never get the chance but if he does it will fail the smell test and flop mightlly

[IbogaProject]

49. Taxes

He worried about paying more taxes and he scared we make Americans better off as that could weaken R chances.

[FakeNoose]

50. Somebody call the wa-a-a-ambulance
