“two people familiar with Trump’s concerns.”

Why are these “sources” OK here but fake news everywhere else?

The talks were private.

Because this particular leak needs to be passed on to the feckless, spineless, clueless Grassley, who is allowing Katz to walk all,over him.

I agree. First I thought this was fake stuff to stir up internal issues where there is no unified efforts. Then I saw it was Breitbart. Hate anonymous sources no matter where they lie. Private conversations should be private in almost all matters.

Yeah.

None of these anonymous BS.

CNN should not use it, and neither should conservative sites.

The President is correct. Grassley’s appeasement is only viewed by the Leftists as a sign of weakness.

“Privately, Pres Trump has targeted Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Judiciary's Grassley for criticism,
complaining that they have not been forceful enough in speeding up the process and have been too deferential
(and accommodating) to Ford’s attorneys,” the Post reports.


Trump needs to remind Republicans, the ONLY reason for this farce is so Democrats can get back into power.

Trump should tell Republicans to quit reading from the Democrats' midterm script. Remind them they are on a different team.

Did Pubbies notice that Ford and her lawyers have made all sorts of nuanced demands,
nit-picking demands that only someone worried about being caught lying (pejuring herself) would make?

Since this accuser is not directly involved in politics, Pubbies can safely assume Ford's "Perjury Trap Blues"
is being orchestrated by the Dems' political apparat.....insiders like Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, the DNC, and other midterm dreamers.

Trump needs to ride herd on Grassley, McConnell and the rest.

“According to the Washington Post,”

““In private talks, Trump has targeted Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Grassley for criticism, complaining that they have not been forceful enough in speeding up the process and have been too deferential to Ford’s attorneys, according to two people familiar with Trump’s concerns,””

That would explain McConnell’s speech as he did address it to Mr President.

I think Grassley/McConnel are in a “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” kind of situation.

Go too fast and Kav probably won’t get enough votes. Go too slow and repubs are pissed off and threatening to stay home in Nov.
