Trump: McConnell Is a ‘Disaster’ — GOP Needs New Leadership
Breitbart ^ | 12/19/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 12/19/2021 10:14:04 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Former President Donald Trump said on Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures” that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) was a “disaster,” thus the Republican Party needs new leadership.

Trump said, “Look, Mitch McConnell, a disaster. The Republicans have to get a new leader. Mitch McConnell allowed this to happen. The un-frastructure bill, I call it un-frastructure, not infrastructure. It’s only 9% infrastructure. That means you take 90%, 91% of the money that we’re raising is going to be thrown out the window in order to get 9% infrastructure. There was no way that that should have been passed. It should have been 100% for infrastructure. So what’s happening is we had a thing called the debt ceiling, and he could have used that to win everything, and he chose not to. And we have a bigger problem because they have a so-called voting rights bill which is voting rights for Democrats because Republicans will never be elected again if that happens.”

The leadership reflects the majority of the members.

Mitch’s bitches made him leader.

Crapo, Grassley, Hoeven, Lankford, Lee, Moran, Murkowsky, Rubio, Scott, Thune and Young all need to be primaried in 2022, even if Trump endorses them.

We will never MAGA by re-electing Assistant Democrats.

Trump’s first term had one fatal flaw, being new to Washington he didn’t realize the GOPe was just as much his enemy as the Democrats.

In his second term I know he will chart a different path.

It is true as I see it.

Trump Yes.

McConnell No.

Do you ever get the feeling that Trump’s attacks on McConnell ensure the Democrats will not try to primary him from his Senate seat?

There’s better ways of seeking a new Republican.

Trump 2.
This time it’s personal.

Warning: graphic violence
Including Trump bites the head of a live turtle.

Trump knew exactly what these people were. He also knew that the same Kentucky voters who voted for him also elected McConnell — so there wasn’t a damn thing he could do about it.

Trump endorsed McConnell for another 6 years in 2020 after McConnell had spent 4 years hobbling him.
McConnell is in office until 2026.

lankford is going to have real trouble in Oklahoma.
He is being primaried by a State Senator from Broken Arrow.
The head of the State Republican Party wont endorse lankford for re-election.

Good, it MUST happen.

Electing a MAGA President doesn’t work if the majority of the GOP are Assistant Democrats.

GOP needs 1,000 little Trumps with better instincts than Trump.

Red state senators are the worst of the worst. They are the flipside of Soros DAs.

The Soros DAs make life hell in Blue cities. While Red state senators make sure that conservative voters never lay a glove on the Uniparty.

I supported Trump but he needs to step aside now. We need new leadership in the Republican party. Name-calling is childish.

There were reasons Trump spent half of his term under investigation. One was he had to play ball with the GOPe or the impeachment vote might’ve turned out much differently.

Trump has about ten months to make the 2022 election His Cycle. In 2024, the media and intelligence agencies (that also means the Department of State) will be aligned against him.

His first act should be to cut their personnel authorizations by 25%.

He should also have a bank of his own people to put in places like the Department of State, the Military, etc. All those civilian leadership positions that report to MAGA would make Governance doable.

He spent all of his term under investigation. And the Uniparty stabbed him either way.
