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.”

Of course Biden was showing what a senile fool he was 2 years ago.
But Biden is not my concern, being on the Dem side. Except to tell Dems they likewise shouldn’t be propping up an ancient man.
On the Repub side is my concern. Trump will be aged at exactly the same point in life as Biden was.
And if it’s “not his age” - you’re admitting Trump’s just a jackass?
Agreed, on all counts.
Tomorrow baby. Trump launches the train!! Where’s Ron? Where is he?? NOWHERE.
“the greatest president of all times.”
People really are unhinged over this guy.
If he’s the choice, he’s the choice. So be it.
I will not be “stumping” for Trump, though.
Certainly not for an old man, nevermind his many, many flaws.
Ok, you have until tomorrow to get over your TDS. Throw your tantrum and then get on the train.
Vindictive stupidity on Trump’s part.
He is sliding down the slippery slope.
You have Type II TDS.
Trump above all else. Defend him against all things.
BTW unlike some EverTrumpers, you never offer real evidence of why Trump is so great. Just barbs and slings and arrows. Kind of like Trump but much worse.
Meanwhile yes I will vote Trump if that is what it comes to.
Ok great. Get the TDS out of your system today and tomorrow. By Wednesday get on the train.
As I sit here and weight my options, Trumps economy wins I can put up with name calling I really wish he would stop.
Trump for 4 more years, DeSantis for 8 we tie up the White House for 12 years.....
Chow/Chao is her last name right? So Coco is racist?
“Get on the Trump train or STFU.”
When DeSantis wins will you get on HIS train?
Trump is a petty, little man - a bully whose time has passed.
Most famous women with the name Coco are white.
Maybe there’s a reason we dont know. Maybe Mitch called her Coco in private, a pet name, a nick name for “Chao” and maybe Trump is giving Mitch the needle. A term of endearment. Maybe her Father call her “Coco”.
My wife is a south east Asian, and as dark brown as it gets. People are too sensitive, just looking to be offended.
If this offends Mitch or “Coco”, they need to tell Trump to shut up. But they aren’t. That leads me to believe that Trump is trying to embarrass Mitch, giving him the needle.
You’ll see.
We’ll all see.
We all suffer the consequences of his juvenile ethnic mudslinging.
Two jibes at Asian names in a week.
Both at Republicans ,,,,one the wife of Senate minority leader, Elaine Chao, who served in cabinet posts under both Trump and Bush.
The other at a popular GOP governor who is not Asian so Trump the child tried ( and failed) to make his name Asian so he could taunt him….in a State with a large Asian potentially conservative population.
I think he is walking dead, politically
Classy.
Let’s get rid of these dinosaurs, said the democrats.
(Hint: You’re on the wrong side, again)
Trump Train needs a lot of maintenance before it takes on additional passengers.
I will vote for anyone else as the nominee in 2024 over Trump.
