Full Title : McConnell Thumps Pelosi: The Senate Will Not Waste Its Time Considering a Democrat Bill Which the President Won’t Sign (VIDEO)
McConnell said the Senate won’t even consider legislation passed by the House Democrats this week because it won’t include border wall funding. “Democrats will have to get serious about border security so that a government funding agreement can pass the House, earn 60 votes in the Senate, and receive a presidential signature,” McConnell said, adding, “All three of these things are needed. One partisan vote in the House won’t solve anything.”
“As I’ve said consistently for the last two weeks, the Senate will not waste its time considering a Democratic bill which cannot pass this chamber and which the President will not sign,” McConnell said.
Whoa, is McConnell up for election in 2020?
Off to locate the McConnell quotes where he said one thing, but ended up doing something else ...
Go, McConnell!
Big Media will employ the G-Word ASAP, and cow as many #neverTrump Senators as possible into jumping off a cliff together to prevent OMG “gridlock”.
Amazing what spine-stiffener it is when your wife works for the President. Huh.
“The shutdown can continue till hell freezes over as far as I am concerned. “
And I agree.
Tuna Nan and our domestic enemies must NEVER win.
McConnel and Graham have found some nads in the last 12 months and I like it. Hopefully they get more of them.
Exactly. Obamatard did the same thing for 8 years as he rejected every GOP bill unless the spineless RINOS gave him something in return.
Sounds like McConnell has grown a pair. Good. I hope he sticks with it. Maybe he learned from Harry Reid who did the same thing......for the Dems.
We also need a 30 foot high electrified razor wire fence on both sides of the pit to keep people from falling in.
When that happens, I'll begin to believe we're serious about border security.
Maybe McConnell is more politically savvy than many (including me) have given him credit for.
Ergo, it appears the Murkowskys and Collins' won't get the opportunity to flip the bird to PDJT and squeak through some "bipartisan" Rat bill in the Senate.
They should vote so that the ‘RATs can be put on record and then blamed for every illegal immigrant crime if it does not pass.
No, they are both running in 2020.
It’s the old McCain two-step.
Sound like a conservative for two years and act like an amnesty whore for four.
McCain’s croaking was the best thing that ever happened to Graham.
McConnell did pretty good during the Kavanaugh ordeal.
They typically have only sounded like a conservative for the 9-12 months before the election. They really have changed a bit, especially on judges.
January 2021 they will be pushing amnesty, bet on it.
