Former President Donald Trump issued a lengthy statement attacking U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R‑KY) on Tuesday:
The Republican Party can never again be respected or strong with political “leaders” like Sen. Mitch McConnell at its helm. McConnell’s dedication to business as usual, status quo policies, together with his lack of political insight, wisdom, skill, and personality, has rapidly driven him from Majority Leader to Minority Leader, and it will only get worse. The Democrats and Chuck Schumer play McConnell like a fiddle—they’ve never had it so good—and they want to keep it that way! We know our America First agenda is a winner, not McConnell’s Beltway First agenda or Biden’s America Last.
In 2020, I received the most votes of any sitting President in history, almost 75,000,000. Every incumbent House Republican won for the first time in decades, and we flipped 15 seats, almost costing Nancy Pelosi her job. Republicans won majorities in at least 59 of the 98 partisan legislative chambers, and the Democrats failed to flip a single legislative chamber from red to blue. And in “Mitch’s Senate,” over the last two election cycles, I single-handedly saved at least 12 Senate seats, more than eight in the 2020 cycle alone—and then came the Georgia disaster, where we should have won both U.S. Senate seats, but McConnell matched the Democrat offer of $2,000 stimulus checks with $600. How does that work? It became the Democrats’ principal advertisement, and a big winner for them it was. McConnell then put himself, one of the most unpopular politicians in the United States, into the advertisements. Many Republicans in Georgia voted Democrat, or just didn’t vote, because of their anguish at their inept Governor, Brian Kemp, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, and the Republican Party, for not doing its job on Election Integrity during the 2020 Presidential race.
It was a complete election disaster in Georgia, and certain other swing states. McConnell did nothing, and will never do what needs to be done in order to secure a fair and just electoral system into the future. He doesn’t have what it takes, never did, and never will.
My only regret is that McConnell “begged” for my strong support and endorsement before the great people of Kentucky in the 2020 election, and I gave it to him. He went from one point down to 20 points up, and won. How quickly he forgets. Without my endorsement, McConnell would have lost, and lost badly. Now, his numbers are lower than ever before, he is destroying the Republican side of the Senate, and in so doing, seriously hurting our Country.
Likewise, McConnell has no credibility on China because of his family’s substantial Chinese business holdings. He does nothing on this tremendous economic and military threat.
Mitch is a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack, and if Republican Senators are going to stay with him, they will not win again. He will never do what needs to be done, or what is right for our Country. Where necessary and appropriate, I will back primary rivals who espouse Making America Great Again and our policy of America First. We want brilliant, strong, thoughtful, and compassionate leadership.
Prior to the pandemic, we produced the greatest economy and jobs numbers in the history of our Country, and likewise, our economic recovery after Covid was the best in the world. We cut taxes and regulations, rebuilt our military, took care of our Vets, became energy independent, built the wall and stopped the massive inflow of illegals into our Country, and so much more. And now, illegals are pouring in, pipelines are being stopped, taxes will be going up, and we will no longer be energy independent.
This is a big moment for our country, and we cannot let it pass by using third rate “leaders” to dictate our future!
That's telling off the traitorous turtle!
👍😎
looks good to me.
Let me quote a very famous person:
President Trump is the best counterpuncher bar none. That was like a Joe Frasier left hook and a few Mike Tyson uppercuts.
Nonsense, the GOP is Donald Trump's party.
He's going to take the bad actors (why, hello Mitch!) to the woodshed for good whuppin'!
Google shows all MSM sources reporting the statement.
I assume Trump has his own press office - every ex-president does.
Does he have is own Trump website?
I do not know.
Where is this statement posted? I would like to bookmark that site. I went to the “official” Trump sites and nothing there since about Jan 5.
Deserved, game on. The 5 is crying about the splintering of the worthless GOPe.
I just checked. He posted the statement to his channel on Telegram.
That’s because we mostly have weak, spineless RHINO Senators in the Senate who will not fight. I have one in WY - Barrasso who has his nose so far up McConnell’s rear it isn’t funny. Doubt we will be able to get rid of him in 2024 but maybe we can have a successful start by getting rid of Cheney in 2022.
47 posts and no original link to Trump’s statement.
Populist Press would have us to believe Trump issued the release to them. Shoddy!
In which venue/website/social media did Pres Trump originally release this statement.
I’m listening to the podcast of the Mark Levin Show from yesterday, and Levin is also ripping McConnell to shreds.
Damn straight. It would have been worse if President Trump had not gone to bat for GOP Senate candidates, while Miotch wanted to get home to Havana Rumba so some deranged ANTIFA dude could throw his leftovers in the street lofl...
The counterattack begins. First eliminate the RINOs then aim directly for the globalists, the MSM and the corruption and fraud that is the Democrat Party. Onward Trump!
You don’t ring true.
Mitch McConnell feels trap door creaking.
This is why Trump appeals. If it had been Bush, he would have rolled over in silence.
God bless our Glorious Leader 🤣😷👍
A not unexpected response to Moscow Mitch’s shooting his mouth off.
Oh, it rings very true.
