President Trump has lashed out savagely at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell after the aging establishment Republican again ignored the de facto leader of his party and directly defied the overwhelming conservative base of the GOP by cutting a deal with Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s Democrats, extending the debt ceiling YET AGAIN without a single concession from the Dem-Socialist regime and averting a government shutdown on Dec. 15th. Notably, this would be a shutdown that most voters would peg almost completely on Democrats for ramming through their hyper-partisan agenda, and a necessary step that Republicans would by and large agree to.
If there was a U.S. government shutdown, would you tend to blame the Democratic Party more, the Republican Party more, or both parties equally?

The “Broken Old Crow” McConnell In Twilight
McConnell’s shameful capitulation stunned many in the GOP. Instead of exacting some sort of concession, such as Schumer setting aside the insanity of Biden’s so-called “Build Back Better” bill or regime’s continuing efforts to radically overhaul our nation’s electoral system to ensure their dominance, “McConnell negotiated a deal with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., to allow the Democrats to hike the debt ceiling with just a majority of votes rather than 60 in order to overcome a filibuster, thereby allowing Republicans to say that none of them voted for a debt ceiling increase.” The minority leader foolishly settled for a meaningless, ‘symbolic’ gesture rather than forcing the Democrats to give real ground and compromise or hang themselves on their own radicalism.
In a statement from President Trump’s Save America PAC, the President wrote,
“Mitch McConnell is giving the Democrats victory on everything. What is wrong with this Broken Old Crow? He’s hurting the Republican Senators and the Republican Party. When will they vote him out of Leadership? He didn’t have the guts to play the Debt Ceiling card, which would have given the Republicans a complete victory on virtually everything. The Dems were ready to fold! Watch, they will use the Debt Ceiling against us at their first opportunity, and they won’t fold. It will not be pretty. GET RID OF MITCH! “
“He was afraid to play that card even though, without question, they would have completely FOLDED on the Build Back Worse Bill, which will destroy the fabric of our Country and virtually anything else that the Republicans wanted.” Trump continued in a statement emailed to The New York Post.
“The Old Crow also allowed a breaking up of the filibuster, which allows the Democrats now to establish precedent for changing the number of Justices on the Supreme Court and, perhaps most importantly of all, a so-called Voting Rights Bill, which will make it almost impossible for Republicans to get elected in the future,” Trump added.
“Other than fundraising, where he buys senatorial support, the Broken Old Crow is a loser, and very bad for the Republican Party!”
Trump has firmly established that McConnell is in the twilight of his 36 years in the US Senate and will end his leadership as another RINO in the President’s shadow.
