Swamp Monster McConnell Criticizes President Trump For ‘Excessive Expectations’
Hidden Americans ^ | 08/08/2017 | Richard Saunders

Swamp monster, Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell has the gal to criticize the president for 'excessive expectations'. McConnell hasn't passed any significant legislation. McConnell wasn't even able to corral his majority to fulfill a 7 year promise to repeal and replace Obamacare, hasn't started on tax cuts, but feels emboldened to blame president Trump for his inaction.

During a speech in Kentucky, McConnell said Trump's "artificial deadlines" are "unrelated to reality."

“Now our new president has of course not been in this line of work before. And I think had excessive expectations about how quickly things happen in the democratic process,” McConnell said.

“And so, part of the reason I think people feel like we’re under-performing is because too many artificial deadlines unrelated to the reality and the complexity of legislature may not have been fully understood.”

Republican Senate must get rid of 60 vote NOW! It is killing the R Party, allows 8 Dems to control country. 200 Bills sit in Senate. A JOKE!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 29, 2017

3 Republicans and 48 Democrats let the American people down. As I said from the beginning, let ObamaCare implode, then deal. Watch!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 28, 2017

If Republicans are going to pass great future legislation in the Senate, they must immediately go to a 51 vote majority, not senseless 60...— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 28, 2017

Below is McConnell's speech at the Kentucky Florence Rotary Club:

How many times did these disgusting ****** GOP pigs vote to repeal Obamacare before they could really do it?

The jokes write themselves.

The ONLY excessive expectation was that you would do your job.

Neither McConnell or Ryan can get it done. Find others that can.

♫ Everybody Sing Along!♫

Next time your found, with your chin on the ground
There a lot to be learned, so look around ♫

Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant

♫ But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes

♫ So any time your gettin' low
'Stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant ♫

I got news for you, pal. It’s not just Trump’s expectations but also all of us you lied to to send you scumbags to the Senate.

They are just waiting/hoping for Mueller to “get the goods” so they can run the clock out. The only thing that is going to get thier attention is if they start losing Primaries starting next week in Alabama. Obviously Trump getting 63 million votes means nothing to these bastards.

I call for a vote of no confidence in Chancellor ValorumMajority Leader McConnell. I will not sit by and watch my people suffer when the bureaucrats discuss the problem endlessly in committee.
