Earlier this month, former President Trump said that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) should be impeached if he backs a plan for the debt ceiling to be eliminated over fears that House Republicans could cause the U.S. to default on the nation’s credit.
When asked by conservative radio host John Fredericks about chatter surrounding the possibility of Congress effectively eliminating the debt limit, the former president lambasted the idea.
On Sunday, following the Democrat’s win and maintaining Senate control, Trump went on the attack.
“It’s Mitch McConnell’s fault. Spending money to defeat great Republican candidates instead of backing Blake Masters and others was a big mistake,” Trump said Sunday. “Giving 4 Trillion Dollars to the Radical Left for the Green New Deal, not Infrastructure, was an even bigger mistake. He blew the Midterms, and everyone despises him and his otherwise lovely wife, Coco Chow.”
With Democrats maintaining Senate control, this keeps the path open for Biden to have his judicial and administrative appointments confirmed, even if the Republicans take the House majority.
Control of the US House still hangs in the balance and may not be determined for some time with ballots left to be counted in closely contested races in California, as well as other states.
On Saturday, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said at a press conference, “The race is now called in Arizona and Nevada. Democrats will have a majority in the Senate and I will once again be Majority Leader. This election is a victory. A victory and a vindication for Democrats, our agenda for America, and for the American people, There are three things that helped the Senate secure the majority. One, our terrific candidates, two, our agenda and our accomplishments and three the American people rejected, the anti-democratic extremist MAGA Republicans.”

Please Trump! I like your ideas, but you high schoolish taunts scare people.
Not helpful, childish if you ask me, he should lay out his beef to the Public..
Vote for who you want to. You control no one else’s vote but your own.
Trump is turning off his base with this name-calling. He would be better served to just shut up and use his resources to beat the Dems at their own game. But he won’t—he has too much pride and deep down I don’t think he gives much of a damn.
A good way to get at your opponent is to mock them. Everybody knows how personally corrupt McConnell is, so he’s probably getting right in front of him and framing the target.
The turtle found a woman who’d live with him?
Astounding.
Inconceivable.
He sounds like someone very mad at the people who have absolutely destroyed the country. At this point, if you’re not as mad as Trump you should be no where near power because you don’t get what’s happening.
Classy.
Let’s get rid of these dinosaurs.
AZ and NV are NOT called. Stolen Doon though.
Turtle needs to ge called out.
Who cares how you vote. You live Massachusetts. It’s going to go Blue no matter how much nonsense you spew.
Turning off his base?? 🤣
You can only hope
I’ll vote for Trump if he is the nominee, and it would be great fun to see him in the White House driving the libs bat crap crazy, but I just wish he’d shut up. If he’s gonna attack, there are an over abundance of Dem targets. He’s been non-stop on Republicans lately. I’m worn out.

He called her the “lovely Coco Chow” How is that defamatory?
Mitch is was more dangerous to the party than the Rats
Is Trump trying to have an excuse for not running? Like he just lost the Asian community with his stupid jeers? Ooops.
Intervention required, Melania.
SHUT UP! Trump did not issue a "death threat" to Mitch. HELLO? The term "death wish" is a FIGURE OF SPEECH, refers to doing something AGAINST ONE'S SELF INTEREST. And calling someone "Coco" is NOT RACIST! Coco Chanel? Wise FRENCH woman. BELOW: news stories using the term. Relax! pic.twitter.com/264XPaYaiB— Greg Kelly (@gregkellyusa) October 2, 2022
Nothing to do with race. It's a French name. Then go watch Trump's Virtues again - Trump is an equal opportunity critizer, only if America and it's leaders stand up to political correctness and show it the contempt it deserves IS THERE ANY CHANCE OF PRESERVING THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE.
> Trump is turning off his base with this name-calling.<
Yep. Trump has drifted from a Reaganesque character to a Grandpa Simpson character. It is both sad and bad for the country.
