Trump takes a time-out from his infrastructure speech to whine about obstructionist Dems. #MAGA!





On Wednesday, President Donald Trump complained that Democrats in Congress are obstructing his agenda in a petulant speech in Cincinnati, OH.

Now that the House has passed its deeply unpopular American Healthcare Act, the Senate must step up and do its duty, Trump said.

“Now it is time for the Senate, Mitch McConnell working very hard to act and save Americans from this catastrophic event, because Obamacare is dead. Obamacare was one of the biggest broken promises in the history of politics,” he went on.

He then called on Democrats to support him, saying, “That’s why I am calling on all the Democrats, who honestly have really been obstructionists. Boy, have they tried. Every single thing. On healthcare, I won’t get one vote on health care, Obamacare is crashing, it’s dead, it is in a death spiral as the head of one of the biggest insurance companies said, it is in a death spiral,” he complained. “We are coming out to do good, not to do bad, to do good. We won’t get one Democrat vote. They are just obstructionists, every single thing is obstruction.”

That it was his own party that is and was holding up his Trumpcare? He does not need a single Democratic vote in either the House or the Senate to get this bill passed!

You're son says we're not even people. Your supporters think liberalism is a mental illness. And we're supposed to roll over and play nice? No. Fuck you, fuck the right wing Congress, fuck Pence, fuck your cabinet, and fuck your supporters. K thanks bye!
