Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R, KY) has torpedoed President Donald Trump’s plan to cut $60 billion in federal spending, despite a promise to open a “discussion” on the cuts.
Even after supporting and passing a $1.3 trillion increase in spending, McConnell said he would talk about a rescissions package that had the support of the president. However, McConnell has ultimately refused to support the plan, Conservative Review noted.
McConnell appeared on Fox News with host Neil Cavuto on April 17 and as the interview ended, the Sen. insisted that he could not make such an agreement to rescind any of the massive spending he supported during the budgeting process.
Cavuto noted that President Trump expressed shock that his cuts in spending were not added to the bill and said he would never sign such a bill again. The Fox host then asked if McConnell would try to rescind any of that spending.
But the majority leader said that he already brokered an agreement with the Democrats and that train has left the station..

This old turd needs to go, like many others that claim to be conservatives.
ReplyDeleteI wish that McConnell had been on that train as it left the station.
ReplyDeleteMcConnell is no better than a the Democrats that hate Trump. He brokered a deal with Democrats that I am sure he advised President Trump about his shameful back room deals.
ReplyDeleteMcConnell needs to go!
ReplyDeleteWhat this means is that essentially all 500 or so elected officials in the House and Senate are actually against President Trump...and the people that elected him.
ReplyDeleteWe need a bunch of new primary winners to unseat these spineless establishment swamp creatures and do what the voters actually want!
They dont give a damn, that burden will be paid by you and I. We are the ones who will suffer
ReplyDeleteBecause he ain't really a republican.
ReplyDeleteStart IMPLEMENTING what the AMERICAN PEOPLE voted for, NOT what your fake political dreams tell you to support.
"We, the people" quite emphatically told these snakes what we wanted, but at every turn, there seems to be a couple of REPUBLICANS who are standing in the way.
They didn't notice the election results or did they forget what they are supposed to be doing???
Keep cheering.
Why did POTUS sign this outrageous spending bill in the first place?
ReplyDeleteNothing conservative about that!
I hope the good people of Kentucky realize that Rino POS needs to go.He is hated by all true America loving conservatives.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be nice if that TV show with Keifer Sutherland could have really happened in 2015?
ReplyDeleteMale version of Pelosi needs to go ASAP.
