Trump blasts ‘Old Crow’ McConnell for making deal with Democrats on spending bill
The Washington Times ^ | De 27 | By Ramsey Touchberry

Posted on 12/27/2022 12:46:43 PM PST by RandFan

Former President Donald Trump has repeatedly criticized Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell for helping Democrats pass a $1.7 trillion government funding package, accusing the Kentucky Republican of caving to a “horrendous” deal because Democrats have dirt on him.

In a series of posts on his social media site Truth Social on Monday and Tuesday, Mr. Trump laid into the massive bipartisan spending bill that funds the government through September, even though House Republicans had demanded that Congress hold off on a budget until January when they take the majority.

“The Marxist Democrats must have something really big on Mitch McConnell in order to get him and some of his friendly ‘Republican’ Senators to pass the horrendous ‘All Democrat, All the Way’ OMINOUS Bill,” Mr. Trump posted.

He also repeated a racist line of attack against Elaine Chao, Mr. McConnell’s wife and former Trump Transportation secretary, saying the legislation is a “massive giveaway & capitulation to CHINA, making COCO CHOW so happy!”

Eighteen Republican senators, including Mr. McConnell, joined all Democrats to overcome a 60-vote filibuster threshold to pass the spending package and avert a government shutdown.

Coco Chow isn't racist. I think it's a play on Coco Chanel.

I am trying to sort out why so many Republicans voted for the spending bill when it could have passed with the two or three senators who are retiring and the Republicans could have pretended to be fiscal conservatives.

Were they all delivering a signal that they are willing to play ball, that their thinking is correct. The bill financed the political persecution of Trump for another year. Were they wanting to be seen climbing aboard that bandwagon. It did not touch the illegal immigrant invasion, never mentioned it except for forbidding any money to stop it.

These Republicans should never be forgiven.

There’s not a single Democrat that does this to their party - out of 250 or more - yet the GOP Leader works for Schumer and Biden?

Only a couple things could explain such a thing.

Trump signed into law the 2.2 trillion dollar CARES ACT. As if that wasn't enough, he also signed into law the 900 billion dollar Consolidated Appropriations Act. $3,100,000,000,000 of additional spending in one year.

Remarks by President Trump at Signing of H.R.748, The CARES Act: “Well, thank you all very much. This is a very important day. I’ll sign the single-biggest economic relief package in American history and, I must say, or any other package, by the way. It’s twice as large as any relief ever signed. It’s $2.2 billion, but it actually goes up to 6.2 — potentially — billion dollars — trillion dollars. So you’re talking about 6.2 trillion-dollar bill.”

Now, Trump is trying to portray himself as a fiscal conservative. What hubris.

The only DC politician dirtier than Pedo Joe is Mitchie McConnell.

Biden thinks he sent out $8,000 checks to every American.

Did you and your spouse get $16,000 free?

This is like the "Democrats have something on John Roberts" nonsense. RINOs aren't blackmailed into being RINOs. RINO is just who they are.

I was hoping someone besides me would point that out. Trump is a big spender too. Remember how he lost us the two GA Senate seats by trashing the GOP on the eve of the run off elections, criticizing the GOP for not spending more in the third Covid relief bill?

Why doesn’t Lindsey just flip to a Democrat?

Why is he protecting Joe, his brother and his boy for Six years?

Six years!
