Mitch McConnell says that Donald Trump doesn't know a lot about the issues

Here's a link to a Talking Points Memo article:

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/mcconnell-admists-trump-doesn-t-know-a-lot-about-the-issues

I especially love this comment by ncsteve:

"So, they spend eight years mocking a president who has enormous policy depth as a know-nothing puppet who reads words he doesn't really understand off a teleprompter and now they urgently recommend we elect a real know-nothing who they urgently hope will read words he doesn't understand off a teleprompter.

Even after all this time and after all he's done for the last eight years, the extent to which partisanship is pathology with McConnell never fails to sicken and amaze."

I'm disgusted by Senator McConnell's partisanship and his blatantly un-American actions in the Senate.

Who knew that Mitch McConnell was such a Pollyanna? Partisanship is indeed pathology.

Trump doesn't seem to know about much of anything. I don't think he knows all that much about commercial real estate.

He is mainly a big windbag. A really nasty big windbag.
