President Trump’s “excessive expectations” for legislative victories in Republican-controlled Congress are frustrating Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Attendees at a Rotary Club meeting in Kentucky gathered on Monday to hear Mr. McConnell explain why Republican lawmakers have been unable to deliver major legislative accomplishments....

[SoFloFreeper]

Time for new blood.

[Diogenesis]

They are not unable,
but UNWILLING to deliver what they promised.

The GOP are liars, through and through.

[PreciousLiberty]

McConnell is a disgrace, as are McCain, Graham, Collins and Murkowski.

It's a shame that ousting them will take a while at best...

What's needed are pickups where Republicans beat Dem incumbents. That seems improbable with the propaganda war being waged by the Dems and the MSM.

[Phinneous]

Yeah... Good thing Trump endorsed McTurtle’s choice for senator in Alabama. That’ll get things u stalled. /s

[ArtDodger]

‘major accomplishments’? How about ‘minor accomplishments’? Too busy with snouts deep in the trough to attend to business...

Like, because they don't want to upset their sugar-daddies.

Expecting Congress to deliver on their campaign promises is excessive expectation?

[mountainlion]

Trump came form a community where ethics were needed to succeed. The swamp thieves thrives on ethics of Al Capone and Sol Alenski.

[nclaurel]

Apparently any expectations to support our President or America is “excessive” to tbe turtle.

So El Tortuga you can pass a Russian sanctions bill in hours but you can't pass a bill that you have had 7 years to prepare for. Understood, Bad ideas get the highest attention.

[Carl Vehse]

McConnell concedes that the GOP Congress is a collection of gutless coward eunuchs and lying, murdering traitors.

[magua]

He took the vote without knowing the outcome ahead of time. Duh!
The only battle to fight are the ones that you know the outcome ahead of time. He doesn’t poll the Republicans before he takes the vote? What a loser and he blame Trump! Problem solving 101 look for someone to blame. This is textbook behavior for a loser.

The pampered princes of the Potomac are complaining because the new boss expects them to DO THEIR JOBS for We The People.

The attitudes of those people make me want to practice my noose tying.

[Ann Archy]

Slow-Footed, Slow-Witted LAZT ASS BASTARDS who think of nothing but going on Vacation.

[txrefugee]

The President is doing his job. The Senate is not doing its job, and that is McConnell’s failure as Leader.

[GailA]

They are terrified of the Dems. Plain and simple, it’s ingrained in these congresscritters that have been there 20+ yrs to kow tow to dems and give them their way. COWARDS! Replace any one over 2 terms.

[AndyJackson]

Remember how quickly they tied Trumps hands by passing Russian sanctions and insulting Russia right when we need Russian support over NK.

No the problem is not speed. It is that they are treasonous sell-out globalist #nevertrumpers.

[FrankR]

McConnell thinks the EXPECTATIONS that he do his job, are EXCESSIVE.

He needs to go home and take up basket weaving.

[Joe Bfstplk]

Time to replace the Turdle.
